Despite its generally genial, boys-will-be-boys air, there are a few scenes and storylines that lodge in the mind unpleasantly. Go to Full Review Joe Leydon Variety 08/08/2008
Even ticketbuyers with a hearty appetite for hayseed humor may be repulsed by the coarse cornpone tomfoolery of Beer for My Horses. Go to Full Review Amy Nicholson Boxoffice Magazine 08/08/2008
2.5/5
Michael Salomon traffics in easy plot points like kidnapped damsels and land-grubbing farm barons (Barry Corbin), paired with casual sexism, copious booze and uncomfortable bigotry. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/02/2020

A hayseed hodgepodge of clichd plotting, racist stereotyping, vulgar humor, cartoonish acting, clumsy drama and shameless product placement. Go to Full Review Simon Foster sbs.com.au 08/09/2010
Good lord, even the poster tagline is repugnant - "Vigilante justice - it's a blast!" Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Gabriel M @Anonymous12 Jul 18 I love Toby Keith’s music. It’s still sad he’s gone. Now, regarding with this movie, I remember getting the DVD from the library and I don’t think I payed attention and just turned it off. The editing and camerawork are terrible. I just researched the reception and I can now understand why this film didn’t do well. I have no plans on seeing his other movie “Broken Bridges” and I think both of his films should’ve been rated R.
