The Dukes Of Hazzard (2005)

Family loyalty and a fast car can get you out of almost any jam - at least in Hazzard County. Jay Chandrasekhar's "The Dukes of Hazzard" pairs Johnny Knoxville ("Jackass: The Movie") with Seann William Scott ("Dude, Where's My Car?"), and along with the 1970s-style car chases that made the TV series famous, that guarantees a film even more lowbrow than the CBS show that ran from 1979 to 1985. This goofy comedy is more rehash than remake, as good ol' Georgia boys Luke Duke (Knoxville) and his cousin Bo (Scott) are frequently upstaged by the General Lee, their souped-up 1969 Dodge Charger with a Confederate flag on the roof, which they race, jump and practically fly while running moonshine for their Uncle Jesse (Willie Nelson). Meanwhile, cousin Daisy (Jessica Simpson), in her famous short shorts (aka "Daisy Dukes"), provides the eye candy, though she isn't given much else to do. Corrupt county commissioner Boss Hogg (Burt Reynolds, who should know better) and his bumbling sheriff, Rosco P. Coltrane (M.C. Gainey), bring in a hotshot racing star (James Roday) as part of a scheme to turn Hazzard County into a strip mine. Chandrasekhar, the director of "Super Troopers," manages to find some good-natured laughs in a stock-car racing detour and a few colorful supporting players, especially fellow Broken Lizard member Kevin Heffernan as the Dukes' goofy pal, Sheev.
