“The Dukes of Hazzard (2005) is a big screen adaptation of the Redneck loving 100% country 70s show. It stars Jonny Knoxville, Seann William Scott, Jessica Simpson, Burt Reynolds, and famed country singer Willie Nelson. The plot is pretty typical of movie adaptations of classic television shows. The villain is plotting a cartoon like scheme against the protagonists. Then the good guys of course thwart the villain in a big prolonged action sequence. So yes, it is predictable. If you dislike predictable films, then you might as well stop reading. To me, the first half of the movie was a waste, it could and should have been a whole lot better. The second half is better, but still not up to the standards I personally hold films to. The positives of the film are Willie Nelson, Burt Reynolds, and the final action sequence, I thought those aspects of the film were well done. The negatives unfortunately outweigh the positives. Jessica Simpsonu0026#39;s character, Daisy Duke, was such a waste, she couldu0026#39;ve been a clever character, but instead literally the only purpose she served was to be a sex object the male characters could ogle at and make comments about. And also another negative was the fact that there wasnu0026#39;t a single joke that worked here, I didnu0026#39;t laugh or even chuckle once, every single gag/joke feel completely flat. Overall I give it a 5/10. Like I said, mixed bag, but I personally do not recommend it.”
