It was inevitable that The Dukes of Hazzard would leap onto the big screen, and now, thanks to Broken Lizard's Jay Chandrasekhar (Super Troopers, Club Dread), it finally has. Slipping into the boots made famous by John Schneider and Tom Wopat, Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville play moonshine-selling cousins, Bo and Luke Duke. Along with their ridiculously gorgeous cousin Daisy (Jessica Simpson) and joke-telling Uncle Jessie (Willie Nelson), the Duke boys love to get the goat of Hazzard County's most crooked law enforcement officials, including Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane (M.C. Gainey) and county commissioner Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds). But when they discover that Boss Hogg is using his leverage to run them off their farm in order to turn Hazzard County into a strip mine for coal, things get personal. With the help of their faithful friends, Bo and Luke set off on their riskiest adventure yet. Showing his reverence for the classic 1980s show, Chandrasekhar incorporates freeze-frames, humorous narration, and extended action sequences, resulting in a crowd-pleasing romp that promises to introduce a whole new generation of fans to the Duke boys. While Scott, Knoxville, and the scantily clad Simpson deliver the goods, it is The General Lee the pair's electrifying orange Charger that steals the show.

As a movie, THE DUKES OF HAZZARD is more fun than it has any right to be....The cars chases are blissful celebrations of movement and flight...
Theres a moment in this latest ramshackle rehash of a vintage TV show when our heroes are baffled. While... read more on Time Out
What would you expect from a film with Sean William Scott & Jonny Knoxville, a few obvious jokes, some car chases and a little action. It's worth watching and I'd probably watch it again, but the storyline was predictable and it's exactly what you'd expect.
Wow, looking above some people really hated this film, the words stupid and dumb tend to turn up alot.
Let me ask you this, if you rent a film where the lead roles and occupied by Mr Jackass and Stifler, what were you really expecting? Expecting serious acting and deep meaningfull script? then you can always rent Fight Club of Donnie Darko, you knew you were not going to get that from Jessica Simpson, so why moan? The only thing that really mattered in this film anyway was the car, and to be honest you can't say they messed that up.
In short this is a dumb fun movie of a dumb fun t.v series. Expect no more.
