“Vigilante justice… It's a real blast!”

Producer’s Synopsis: “‘Beer For My Horses’ is a rough-ridin', beer-swillin', sheriff-dodgin', trouble-chasin', good ol' boys comedy-adventure written by and co-starring superstar Toby Keith and popular comedian/recording artist Rodney Carrington. This fun-filled action-adventure careens onto the open road with two buddies—Rack (Keith) and Lonnie (Carrington)—who have quietly been pursuing justice as deputies in a small Southern town. But when Rack's irresistible girlfriend (Claire Forlani) is kidnapped by a particularly nasty drug lord (Carlos Sanz) as revenge for the arrest of his brother Tito (Greg Serano), the duo decide to defy their boss, Sheriff Landry (Tom Skerritt), and chase them down; by any means necessary.”

Negative - This movie was shown on TV and is highly offensive. After 10 min., I left the room telling my husband I didn't care to see it. Due to being at a relative's house, he thought it might be rude if I stayed in another room. I returned to the movie but didn't enjoy it for the following reasons. It had major cursing, drinking, a scene regarding a married woman's boyfriend leaving the trailer by sneaking out the back door. The man is running away naked holding his private areas with his hands.

The movie's plot is about getting a girlfriend back from drug lords. There is a scene where the drug lord is striped down to his bikini underwear and hands are cuffed behind his back. He is brought into a room and the camera zooms in on his private areas. You could see the form of his private parts through the underwear. I consider this movie trash.
