The Dukes of Hazzard **
Cast: Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott, Jessica Simpson, Burt Reynolds, Willie Nelson, M.C. Gainey, David Koechner, Lynda Carter
Director: Jay Chandrasekhar
Running Length: 1:40
MPAA Classification: PG-13
Another old TV show hits the big screen as Bo (Scott) and Luke Duke (Knoxville), along with Daisy (Simpson) and Uncle Jesse (Nelson) try to thwart Boss Hogg's (Reynolds) mysterious plans for Hazzard County. Along the way you are treated to the car chases and Southern locales that fans of the show are used to. There's not a whole lot of plot, and what plot there is is kind of silly, but "Dukes" was never known for its awesome storylines.
Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville fill the shoes of the Duke brothers pretty well, while Jessica Simpson and Willie Nelson are poorly cast. Simpson in particular is almost painful to watch at times. The standout is Burt Reynolds as Boss Hogg. He seems to be enjoying himself thoroughly in every scene he is in.
We are not talking about a great movie here, people. "Dukes" brings the TV show to the big screen, and if you found the TV show stupid, this will be more of the same. But, if you enjoyed it, especially because of it's silliness, you will enjoy the movie.
