	The Dukes of Hazzard film review
		The Dukes Of Hazzard is the latest old TV series to get resurrected and given the big screen treatment.
		Early on the curvaceous Daisy Duke (Jessica Simpson) talks about always having to rescue her cousins Luke (Johnny Knoxville) and Bo (Seann William Scott) whenever they get themselves in trouble.
		Watching endless scenes of the famed orange 1969 Dodge Charger, with its signature confederate flag on the roof, wheel-spinning round the fields of Hazzard County is, surprisingly, not as absorbing as it sounds.

	The Dukes of Hazzard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The TV series, The Dukes of Hazzard, followed the adventures of two good ol' boys, Bo and Luke Duke, living in an unincorporated area of the fictional Hazzard County, Georgia racing around in their souped-up 1969 Dodge Charger, The General Lee, evading corrupt Boss Hogg and his inept county sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.
		Daisy Duke (portrayed by actress Catherine Bach) raced around Hazzard with her cousins, first in a yellow and fl 1971 Plymouth Road Runner, and then—after her car was lost over the side of a cliff—she received her trademark white 1980 Jeep CJ-7 "Golden Eagle" with a Golden Eagle emblem on the hood, the "Dixie".
		Although Hazzard County, Georgia was a fictional location (the early episodes of the show were filmed in Covington, Georgia), the real-life town of Hazard, Kentucky was a beneficiary of the show's popularity.

		The Dukes of Hazzard is a movie based on the American television series, The Dukes of Hazzard.
		The film was #1 at the box office its opening weekend, grossing $30.7 million on 3,785 screens — this despite being panned by most professional film critics (its Tomatometer rating at Rotten Tomatoes is an abysmal 18 percent).
		Roger Ebert gave the film one star, calling it a "lame-brained, outdated wheeze" and suggesting that Burt Reynolds' part in the film is "karma-wise...

	calendarlive.com: MOVIE REVIEW - 'The Dukes of Hazzard'
		A collection of promotable elements strung together until it's time for the next show, "Dukes" is vapid even by the standards of the venerable TV series about Southern boys and their toys — rarely confused with "Omnibus" or "Masterpiece Theater" — it's based on.
		True, there are signs that "Dukes" has been carefully engineered in the hopes of pleasing teenage boys and the grown men who wish high school was eternally in session.
		The film's promotable element No. 1 is that devilish pair of eternally grinning Duke boys, closer to action figures than actual people, good-looking cousins Bo (Seann William Scott) and Luke (Johnny Knoxville).

	The Dukes of Hazzard movie review, In Film Australia
		Jay Chandrasekhar’s tactless big screen branding of The Dukes of Hazzard casts two bungling “actors” in the pivotal roles as Bo and Luke Duke: Seann Thomas Scott, of ‘Stifler’ American Pie fame and Johnny Knoxville, the Jackass ex-pat who stumbled into stardom by roasting his nipples and chewing on broken glass.
		Nelson is Uncle Jesse, the patriarch of the Duke family, and the family trade is the manufacture and distribution of moonshine.
		Analyzing The Dukes of Hazzard reminded me of the sterile criticism of Adam Sandler’s character's speech at the end of Billy Maddison: “we’re all dumber for having listened.” In this case we’re all probably dumber (or is that dumberer?) for having watched.

	The Dukes of Hazzard (2005)
		Granted, the bar was never very high for The Dukes of Hazzard movie from the start, but director Jay Chandrasekhar (Super Troopers) of the Broken Lizard Comedy troupe barely tweaks the series' moronic blend of redneck stereotypes and cornpone narration.
		The fast-driving bane of Hazzard County's crooked Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane (M.C. Gainey), the Dukes and their sexpot cousin Daisy (Simpson) peddle the family moonshine for Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson).
		Over the years, the Duke clan has managed to outwit and outrun Sherriff Coltrane and his deputy Enos (Michael Weston) at every turn, but they may have met their match in Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds), the most powerful and corrupt man in the county.

	The Dukes of Hazzard and Television's Simple South
		Hazzard, where Atlanta is referred to as "the big- city," fits the prescription for a rural community perfectly.
		The Dukes, and the rest of Hazzard county, are all blue collar workers, and Boss Hogg, who owns the bank, the Boar's Nest, and most of the property in the county, serves as the lone representative of the rich.
		Are the writers of The Dukes of Hazzard guilty of this tendency to simplify?

	Dukes of Hazzard, The (2005): Reviews
		Though its PG-13 rating allows for much cruder sex humor, the movie version of "Dukes" is nearly identical to the TV series in its corniness, in its incessant car chases and in its ogling of the posterior of cousin Daisy Duke.
		The Dukes of Hazzard may mark some sort of nadir when it comes to movies made from TV shows.
		The only saving grace for this film is that Jessica Simspon is in it and provides quality eye candy, however we all know that much better source material can easily be found on the internet, and for free as well.

		Far be it from me to deny the appeal of sliding across the hood of a car and hopping in through an open window; it's a maneuver scrupulously mimicked by countless syndication-saturated American youths, regardless of state shade.
		So wary Dukes fans—like TV Cooter Ben Jones, who, sight unseen, termed the film a "sleazy insult" on his website—prepare to witness an amazing feat of filmmaking: Shocked and delighted will you be to see real Hollywood actors and real musicians outperformed by your favorite inanimate objects!
		Director Chandrasekhar, a Broken Lizard vet, flirts with cultural commentary in freeing the Dukes from their hermetic Appalachia, plopping them in an Atlanta traffic jam, where the Confederate-flag-roofed General Lee is applauded then reviled by passersby, and later introducing the good ol' boys to—gasp—fl people.

	The Dukes of Hazzard - ComingSoon.net Movie Reviews
		The Dukes of Hazzard is so liberal an adaptation of the original show, that it's almost not really an adaptation at all.
		The Dukes of Hazzard isn't very true to its source material, and it's not particularly funny in and of itself either, but the frequent car chases are worthwhile, and if you like the Knoxville/Scott brand of humor, you will enjoy it.
		The Dukes of Hazzard is rated PG-13 for sexual content, crude and drug-related humor, language and comic action violence.

		"The Dukes of Hazzard" is a comedy about two cousins who are closer'n brothers, and their car, which is smarter'n they are.
		Simpson plays Daisy Duke, whose short shorts became so famous on TV that they were known as "Daisy Dukes." She models them to a certain effect in a few brief scenes, but is missing from most of the movie.
		The local ruler is Boss Jefferson Davis Hogg (Burt Reynolds), "the meanest man in Hazzard County," who issues orders to the Sheriff and everybody else, and has a secret plan to strip-mine the county and turn it into a wasteland.

	Movie DVD for The Dukes of Hazzard
		Dukes is based upon the television series of the same name that started in 1979 and ran for six seasons.
		Daisy Duke, a direct descendant of voluptuous Daisy Mae Scragg of Al Capp's Lil' Abner cartoon, was a sexy, pouty shorty shorts-wearing gal who liked to bounce her bouncies and reduce any male in the vicinity to a babbling, slobbering boobasaurus.
		The problem is, the film seems to be aiming to find out how many interminable car chases and repetitive shots of the cousins' screaming faces anybody can stand without blasting the hell out of the screen with a twelve gauge.

	Reviews: The Dukes of Hazzard - Christianity Today Movies
		Essentially, The Dukes of Hazzard is a sexed-up and profane distortion of the American cult classic.
		Though it received a PG-13 rating, The Dukes of Hazzard should be rated R. From the opening scene all the way to the outtakes during the credits, the film is loaded with profanity and sexual innuendos.
		The big-screen Dukes of Hazzard is directed by Jay Chandrasekhar, who sent up highway cops and other authority figures a few years ago in State Troopers, a film he made with the comedy troupe Broken Lizard.

		The "Dukes of Hazzard" is a fast- paced film based on the hit television series than ran from 1979 to 1985.
		Cousins Luke and Bo Duke, just a couple of moonshine delivery boys (I bet you didn't know that was how NASCAR started, did you?), driving a 7 MPG 1968 Dodge Charger discover that the reason the local political boss is trying to get all the farms in Hazzard county is to strip mine for coal.

		Although intentionally mindless and as reckless as an open moonshine jug left on a steaming heater, The Dukes of Hazzard continues to feed the repetitive trend of arbitrarily milking the popularity of nostalgic network programming and trying to bleed the cinematic appeal for all that it is worth.
		Whereas the small screen version of the Duke clan had a sense of charm and irreverence that was infectious in its offbeat mode, Chandrasekhar's big screen edition feels anemically manufactured and uninspired in their awkward bid for country-fried craziness.
		In fact, the movie's toothless plot involving the Dukes' agenda to curb the selfish-minded and fiendish plan of Hazzard County honcho Boss Hogg doesn't even have a creative or distinctive punch to challenge one of the trademark slapstick episodes of the TV show's reruns.

		The plot in a nutshell -- which is where it belongs -- is that Hogg has hatched a scheme to defraud the Dukes and their neighbors of their property in order to strip-mine the land for coal.
		The rest of the film consists of the boys chasing women and being chased by dozens of police cars throughout the state of Georgia as the Dukes try to stop Hogg from ruining Hazzard County
		The film's only redeeming feature is the end credits, which show extremely funny outtakes from the movie.

		The script is laugh-out-loud funny in places, as the Duke boys try to save the day, with the aid of "The General Lee", an orange 1969 Dodge Charger.
		Jessica Simpson, obviously hired for her ability to fill out the famous "Daisy Duke" hotpants, rather than her acting ability, has little to do but flirt and flaunt, which she does with great aplomb and enthusiasm, however, I don't think she'll be lining up for an Oscar anytime soon.
		But the greatest disappointment of the film was the car - a shot towards the end of the bloopers shows the General has an automatic transmission.
