More "Hazzardous" Than Chernobyl -- And Less Funny
THE DUKES OF HAZZARD starts off slower than a Winn-Dixie check-out line in Chattahoochee and proceeds to go nowhere fast. I counted an absolute maximum total of two, yes two, mildly amusing scenes in one hundred and six minutes of screen time -- one is when Luke and Bo are in the holding cell in Atlanta and the second is when Willie Nelson emerges from the "smoke shack". That's mighty slim pickings; a bucket of Church's chicken necks offers more to savor. Throw in one amusing cameo with Rip Taylor during the end credits and you still have less bang for the buck than a non-sale item at Cabela's.
It is way too early to prognosticate the winner of the next Oscar or Emmy, but I can say without hesitation that THE DUKES OF HAZZARD is the forerunner for the first-ever Schaivo -- an award given to the most lifeless, brain dead movie of the year.

on a scale of one to five....i give it one chocolate hot dog....and that goes to joe don baker, whose career crested with buford pusser....(maybe he should have turned to pro wrestling)
robert....you devoted one hundred and fifty seven words to your review ....way too many for that serving of rancid corn pone....
It saddens me that Willie Nelson, one of the coolest men walking the planet, has allowed himself to be a part of this tripe. Jessica Simpson isn't qualified to carry his jock. She can carry mine though...
