ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
moviedude1 Tom Wopat and John Schneider revive their 80's characters as, once again, the "Good Ol' Boys" rise up against corruption in the South, this time in the form of a businesswoman (Stevens), with the help of some friends from the old series.You know, I grew up in the Dukes' era, and I was mildly surprised at how good of a job director Lewis Teague did with this film. I know that the original series has some corny plots by what we see nowadays, but, for those of us who grew up in that time, there wasn't one of us alive who enjoyed the original series without picturing themselves behind the wheel of the General Lee. (I had to mention the car - after all, it was the car(s) that made the jump, not those boys.) A little older, perhaps, but the actors walked in and picked up on their original characters like they've been doing them for the last twenty years.
gooup My 10-year old son and I just finished watching the reunion on CMT, and it's the second time i've seen it ... it was his first. i vaguely remembered not liking this reunion, now i remember. Enos and Daisy's marriage doesn't happen, Cooter's a Congressman? The main thing that really seems to bother me is that ONLY Bo drives the General Lee. Why is that? Did John Schneider's ego cause him to demand that in his contract? I've done some searching on the internet but i can't seem to find this discussed anywhere.The plot was predictably thin in regards to original content. But, how many of us were expecting earth-shattering suspense or mind-blowing changes?
voicemaster71 THIS COMMENT MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS :I never thought they would ever do it, so I was totally blown away when I saw the Dukes of Hazzard Reunion on CBS back in 1997. The series became hot all over again when it played on TNN and now on CMT. It was indeed sad that Sorrell Booke as Boss Hogg had died. I remember hearing about it during my senior year in college. But his being acknowledged was fantastic. I never once imagined Rosco as both boss and sheriff of Hazzard, but that made it even more enjoyable. I feel that Catherine Bach still looks great as Daisy Duke. Okay, sure she didn't have the same physique she did in the series, but you have to understand. She recently had a baby prior to filming this movie and she was in her 40's at the time as opposed to being in her 20s/'30's during the series. Not many people have that same physique when they get older. She looked fantastic!! Tom Wopat and John Schneider had no trouble returning to the roles of Bo and Luke Duke. Now Bo being a NASCAR driver, I could believe, I felt that Luke being a chief fireman was a bit odd. Daisy had a good catch up story of being in a failed marriage and she put herself through college and graduate school studying ecology. Great to see Enos back and now he's a tough competent cop from L.A. but still maintains his honest,shy, boyish charm. I loved that he and Daisy courted and was looking forward to their marriage and the end of the movie, only to be greatly disappointed that the wedding was called off because Daisy's idiot ex husband shows up by accident. James Best is Funnier than ever as Rosco P. Coltrane, now the head honcho of Hazzard County and his scenes with Stella Stevens as Mama Max were absolute jewels to watch. One priceless scene was the emotional scene when he talks to the portrait of the late Boss Hogg. I loved the fact that Cooter also served in Congress just like Ben Jones did in real life. And it was great to see Rick Hurst return as Cletus, especially since the series never revealed where he vanished to when he departed during the fifth season. The only thing I didn't like about the movie was Bubba and Bertha Jo. Now I know that these movies need supportive characters, but surely they could have come up with better. Bubba and Betha Jo got on my nerves and the fact that they married instead of Daisy and Enos made me despise them even more. But it is still a terrific reunion movie and especially to see Bo and Luke racing around in the General Lee just like the old days. It is especially a great chance to see Denver Pyle one more time as Uncle Jesse since sadly, he would pass away on Christmas of that same year. The Dukes of Hazzard Reunion is a movie I will gladly give two thumbs up.
Big Movie Fan It is quite rare for a TV reunion movie to be as good as a series itself but this Dukes of Hazzard movie was great.The original Dukes of Hazzard series was just plain fun-it was the type of show anyone could enjoy. This movie recreated the magic of the original series and even though the stars were a lot older that made absolutely no difference to me-I still liked them and they were still convincing in their roles.The movie may not have had Boss Hogg in but to it's credit they did acknowledge Boss Hogg unlike some TV reunion movies which seem to forget certain characters.A great film which will be loved by fans of the TV series.
