JokerMichel This movie is the extreme exemple of a comedy movie that isn't funny at all If they had improved the plot , changed the silly script , chosen better actors I think we could get a 6.5 rating

aberbiglia The only reason this movie has a 5/10 rating is because of all the die hard Duke's of Hazard fans who watched the TV show growing up. The fact of the matter is if you have never seen the Dukes of Hazard TV show, or don't have a sentimental love for the show, then this movie is worth a watch. Johnny Knoxville and Sean William Scott clearly have great chemistry throughout the movie, the plot line isn't boring or hard to follow, and there are definitely some funny moments from start to finish. Jessica Simpson, Willie Nelson, Burt Reynolds, and Kevin Heffernan are some good extras who make the movie more enjoyable as well. Dukes of Hazard isn't the funniest movie you will ever see, but it deserves more than a 5/10 rating. I was shocked when I saw how low the IMDb rating for this movie was until I realized it's because of all the Dukes of Hazard TV show fanatic reviews. I got some good laughs out of this movie and I think it deserves more than 5 stars.

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.

Phil Hubbs Not too sure where I stand with this update of the classic kids show. This is one of those times where making a film for the younger audience is probably the best option yet they went the other way.The main problem here is the fact that The Dukes of Hazzard was a TV show primarily for kids. It was light-hearted and had the same kind of theme as other classic TV shows like The A-Team, Knight Rider and Airwolf. This new film takes that kind-hearted approach and throws it out of the window to make room for a new crude, vulgar version with tits and ass.I will admit that at times the film is good fun, the massive car chase sequence at the end is a tornado of great stunts that is tremendous fun to watch. Much like the classic car chases in 'The Blues Brothers' its amazing to see the famous Dodge Charger hurtle down the freeway and leap higher and farther than ever before. Unfortunately this is about as fun as it gets for both thrills and whimsical retro goodness.The rest of the film really is a nasty cheap-ass pile of stereotypical clichés in a bad straight to DVD National Lampoon's kinda way. The main casting of Knoxville and Scott as Bo and Luke was terrible and gave the game away immediately as to what direction the film was going in. Even Simpson as Daisy was a bad choice, your everyday boring over-tanned blonde Barbie doll wannabe with luminously bleached teeth. Yes she was sexy in her tight Levi cutoffs and lets be honest this character ain't here for intellectual conversation, but she was also vacuous with no character whatsoever. The bad casting continued with Reynolds as Boss Hogg who had no presence in the film at all. Just a big name for the advertising and a very weak performance.Overall its a very mixed bag as there is some nice car porn in here but quite simply its a very bad adaptation of the TV show. Seeing the old General Lee zoom around is the most enjoyment you're gonna get outta this...if you grew up with the show that is (or you're a petrolhead).Shame they also had to drag the modern day PC bandwagon into the fray. They just had to include present day politics didn't they, couldn't let that go, exactly why this should not have been set in the present day. Not to be taken too seriously of course but you know deep down the original TV show is slightly frowned upon these days *groan*.Unfortunately this is a rather sour spin on the TV show and spoils its good name. Chock full of needless cameos, way too glossy, hints at soft porn, crass and with added toilet humour. Basically its 'American Pie' and 'Jackass' injected into a much loved old TV show which is totally unacceptable frankly.This is exactly what Stiller and co didn't do for their classic TV show adaptation and look at the difference in quality. Don't show this to your kids and avoid yourself.2/10
