Tagline: They’ll give anyone a badge.
The film sees Larry the Cable Guy working as a big city health inspector assigned to investigate a series of food poisoning incidents at the city’s top restaurants. Sporting a cut-off flannel shirt and armed with a truckload of one-liners, Larry the Cable Guy is America’s reigning king of blue-collar comedy. Now, after two #1 comedy tours (out-selling both Jerry Seinfeld and Chris Rock), two hit concert films, a best-selling book, two chart-topping comedy albums and a multi-platinum DVD special, Larry makes his feature film debut in the outrageous Lionsgate comedy, “Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector”.
Irreverent as ever, Larry plays a big city health inspector who’s happy with his usual beat of greasy spoon diners and low-rent ethnic restaurants. But his easygoing life is turned upside-down when he’s saddled with a straight-arrow rookie partner (Iris Bahr) and assigned the biggest case of his career: investigating an outbreak of mysterious food poisonings at the city’s swankiest restaurants.
Infuriating restaurateurs with his bad manners, Larry still manages to charm a sweet, shy waitress (Megyn Price) into a budding romance. But when his unorthodox methods cost him his job, Larry has to go undercover to bring the conspirators to justice and ‘Git-R-Done!’
