Review

The Dukes of Hazard is movie that probably should not have been made. For some unknown reason the movie diverges greatly from the original TV show. Many of the characters such as Boss Hogg and Rosco are virtually unrecognizable in their new forms, and very few elements of the TV show made it into the film.

The most disappointing thing about the movie is the humor. It is very broad and crude. There is a distracting quantity of sex-related jokes and drug references that serve no purpose but to get some cheap laughs.

The one good thing about this movie is the stunt driving. This movie has some of the best car chases and jumps ever shown on film. If you are a fan of car stunts, The Dukes of Hazard may be a movie for you.

Rating (1-10)
