Dukes of Hazzard - NO SPOILERS

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

It is exactly what it tried to be... a Dukes of Hazzard movie. In that, it was perfect.

See, I don't think so.

The Dukes never left Hazzard, Boss Hogg did love his town (I remember episodes where he teamed with the Dukes to defend Hazzard from outsiders), Roscoe wasn't just a goon (he too loved his town and went against Hogg a few times), there was no nerd guy wearing armadillo hats, Bo wasn't a complete moron, both Duke boys were good with the ladies, the General Lee was always the General Lee, Daisy Duke was a brunette, etc.

Now I'm not saying they needed to keep everything the same, but I don't think they made a Dukes of Hazzard movie. They made a movie about the Dukes of Hazzard.

Big difference.
