Larry, an uncouth health inspector (Larry the Cable Guy), teams up with a straight-laced rookie partner (Iris Bahr) to investigate an outbreak of food poisoning at the city's swankiest eateries, but when his unorthodox methods cost him his job, he must go under cover to make dining out safe again.

Critics Consensus

An aggressively lowbrow vehicle for its titular star, this gross-out comedy fails to "git-r-done."

J. R. Jones

Chicago Reader

Though some of his one-liners are pretty good, his shtick can't sustain this dutifully scripted comedy.

Not one gratuitous 'Git-Er-Done!' was uttered during the composition of this review.

AV Club

It'd be tempting to call Larry the Ernest of his generation, but that'd be a grave insult to Jim Varney's enduring legacy.

Midwest Film Journal

At least Larry the Cable Guy's brief movie career kept Hollywood's fart-sound proprietors in business. What, you thought an opening shot of his bared plumber's crack was an arbitrary artistic decision? That there's foreshadowin' right there!

Rated: .5/4

Larry the Cable Guy's formal feature debut is a lesser form beneath his more favorably animated automobile counterpart as his other formal feature debut in a different medium while earlier dropped into a trashy, simplistic narrative that is plain unsanitary with a rotting formula consisting easy traits that already resulted in making bad pictures.
