SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
teamcaryl Wow .... My head is still processing the utter mindlessness of the cretin who made this nonsense. I barely got through 20-minutes of it on Netflix before changing movies. What an utter mess. A ton of bad acting and sad directing, alongside horrible casting choices, characterization, script, and plot. Total crude and mindless humor at its dumbest. Completely insulting and shaming the classic series, which was a family-oriented show, and hugely entertaining. Bo and Luke were down-home good 'ole boys---not lust-driven, dimwitted playboys, always provoking brawls. Uncle Jessie was a God-fearing, rule-thumping fatherly patriarch, and Daisy was NOT a bimbo blonde, but an attractive, sexy brunette with real brains behind a pretty face. Roscoe and Enos were the comic relief, serving under the comical deviousness of Boss Hogg. Thank goodness I didn't waste my $ on a movie ticket, at its release. I'd have demanded a refund.
maartendeveirman After this movie i am always happy and relaxed! Jessica Simpson show how beautiful she is. The movie has a good sense of humor too. Maybe not for everyone but for me, i forget all the bad things in life during this movie. As i wrote earlier i am always happy and relaxed after seeing this movie. And that is very important in life!
BA_Harrison Jefferson Davis 'Boss' Hogg (Burt Reynolds) intends to make a fortune by strip-mining Hazzard Count for its coal, but when moonshiners Bo and Luke Duke (Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville) get wind of his nefarious plan, they decide to throw a spanner in the works, with a little help from Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson), cousin Daisy (Jessica Simpson), and Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter).I was never really a fan of the TV series of The Dukes of Hazzard, despite hailing from the South (of England, that is), so I'm not going to complain about this big screen adaptation crapping all over my childhood memories. I am, however, going to complain that the film lacks charm, a decent plot, memorable performances and any real sense of fun, director Jay Chandrasekhar merely going through the motions, delivering what he expects fans want to see, but doing so with seemingly little love, imagination or enthusiasm.Knoxville and Scott might get top billing as good ol' boys Bo and Luke, moonshine runners and general troublemakers of Hazzard County, but the real stars of the film are General Lee, their muscle car, which is involved in numerous silly chase scenes in which the vehicle continues to function despite preposterous chassis knackering jumps and crashes, and Jessica Simpson as delectable Daisy Duke, whose bodywork is absolutely stunning and who, I imagine, handles like a dream.
Mal 1978 I'm not a native southerner, but watching the original Dukes of Hazzard was a memorable and uplifting part of my childhood. The Dukes were the best of people, people who did the right thing despite the cost, people who would go all out for a stranger in need. The boys were certainly wild, but in a good way, with their hearts in the right place. Daisy was a classy, angelic lady. She never intentionally flaunted her sexuality, except for good reason (helping someone else out by providing a distraction).The Producers and Director of this POS movie turned the Duke boys into imbecilic, classless, wise-cracking, sex-crazed, frat boys. And they turned Daisy into a straight out slut.Those who liked this movie point out the original series was often corny and unsophisticated by today's standards, like a lot of 80s action shows were (Knight Rider, A- Team, AirWolf, etc.). But it was a wholesome flavor of corny, the kind that left you with a good feeling. Turning it into a bawdy roll in the filthy mud isn't an improvement. It's not even original, because that's what many series and movies are doing these days. People who support this movie over the original series are just sheep, all wanting the same, lowbrow entertainment out of their movies.If you were a fan of the original series, I'd recommend you skip this movie, as most likely, it'll only make you mad and disgusted.
