4.0 out of 5 stars Like Walker, Texas Ranger with a sense of humor!, February 2, 2009

This review is from: Beer for My Horses (DVD)

If you liked the lightweight cheesiness of "Walker, Texas Ranger," this is kind of the same idea. If you like heavyweight, super-serious plots with shaky cameras and edgy plot twists, this is not for you. The biggest difference between this and Walker is that there is a lot more humor and a lot less violence, but it still makes for a very entertaining film. Not everything can be like "Heat," nor do I want it to be, and this movie fills my need for marshmallow fluff for the redneck soul. You'll see a lot of famous faces and quintessential small town shenanigans, and you'll probably know how it ends after the first 10 minutes. I stumbled onto this movie having no idea what to expect, and found myself liking it so much that I wish they'd make it into a regular series! I know and am related to so many people like the characters here, and you probably are as well. It's endearing, funny, absurd, and in many ways all too familiar! If no series comes of it, I do hope there will be a sequel. I think a lot of Walker fans, myself included, would be delighted to see more of it.

What a great movie...it was fun to watch. Ted Nugent was absolutely fabulous as well as the rest of the cast. It was fun to see so many "famous" people in here...Willie Nelson, Mac Davis, just to name a couple.

This review is from: Beer for My Horses (DVD)

I have no earthly idea what "Beer for My Horses" is supposed to be or whom it's supposed to appeal to, but it does have one of the most unusual casts I've seen in ages. Rock and country music stars Toby Keith, Willie Nelson, Mel Tillis, Ted Nugent, Mac Davis and David Allen Coe join up with actual, honest-to-God actors like Tom Skerrit and Claire Forlani in a film derived from Keith's hit country song of the same name.

In fact, Keith co-wrote, directed and plays the lead in this tale of an Oklahoma sheriff whose girlfriend is kidnapped after he and his men arrest the brother of a nefarious Mexican drug lord for stealing fertilizer, apparently a key ingredient in meth production (who knew?). Soon, the law enforcer and his posse are headed south-of-the-border to rescue the girl.

Keith has thrown just about everything he can think of into the mix: small-town buffoonery, race-tinged melodrama, low-keyed romance, a troupe of circus performers, a flatulent bulldog, and more scowling Mexicans than you can shake a sombrero at. Somehow it's all supposed to go together, but even the most accomplished filmmaker would have trouble making it all work. Still, it's so homespun, scruffy and amiable that criticizing it too harshly would be like kicking the family mutt.
