Dukes of Hazzard proves hazzardous for your health

The Dukes of Hazzard

Director: Jay Chandrasekhar

Cast: Johnny Knoxville, Seann Scott Williams, Burt Reynolds, Jessica Simpson

Cert: 12

The l970s TV series on which this awful big-screen adaptation is based was never all that good, or funny, to begin with.

The film is even worse.

Characters with few redeeming features – except, in the case of the gals, boob-tubes, pretty faces, good figures and long legs – crash cars, cause explosions, start shoot-ups and make mayhem as Boss Hogg (Reynolds) tries to turn ole Hazzard County into a money-spinning mining centre.

There’s no wit, no originality, no decent plotline – nothing at all – in this dismal rip-off of a so-so TV series.

It’s just cheap, third-rate non-entertainment.

Star Rating: 1/5
