What our
panel of critics thought |
|
"I
have never said yeehargh in my life, but you know something? I might just try
it after this movie... Yooo rrrgh! Oh. It might need some work. It's more difficult
than it looks." "Reasonably
mindless, yet it's a great drive. Just switch off your mind and enjoy the ride
movie." "Johnny
Knoxville is perfectly cast." "Daisy
Duke is sex on legs. The legs ain't that bad either." "Bo
Duke in love nest with his car. STOP THE PRESSES." "The
video for These boots are made for walking made my year. Never has so much sex
been on show in a music video." "Seamless
integration of CGI pragmas with live action. A CGI geeks orgasm." "It's
a Knoxville Knockout!" |
Please
tell me the ending.
SPOILER
|
| Boss
Hogg's (Burt Reynolds) plan to divert interest in Hazzard County, while he gets
a court to award him permission to strip mine Hazzard, is foiled by our heroes.
Bo
Duke wins the 70th Annual Hazzard Road Rally and then goes to the court
house where he meets up with Luke and a crowd to stop Boss Hogg's evil big-hatted
machinations... |
Are there
any driving tips a 13 year old could take from this PG 13 movie ? |
| Tip
1: Never ever ever come to a halt without a skid - apply the hand brake just at
the end. Tip
2: When joining the highway, always take a ramp so that you can fly onto it. Tip
3: You always get bonus points for making two police cars crash. |
How many
"Yee hargh's!" were there in this movie? |
| 76.34.
|
How good
is the Jessica Simpson video for "These boots are made for walking"
? |
| OH
whoa, yes. Oh uhm. Oh. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-eeeeeeeeeeeeeee-eee-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-eeeeeee-eeeeeeeeeeee
AAAAAAaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaa-aa-aaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-aa-aaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-rrrrrrrrrrrrr-rrr-r-rrrrrrrrr-rrrrrrrrrrr-rrrrrrrrrrrr-rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-rrrrrRRRR-RRR-RRRRR-RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR-A!
Cough. |
What
can I take from this movie to make me a better person?
|
| The
best "Yeehargh!" you will ever have in life is always screamed just
after one of those multi-toned car horns. |
How can
I decorate my car appropriately after this movie? |
| A
Hazzard County fluffy driving-wheel cover and matching fluffy dice set. (Alternative:
Same but a non-matching set). Apple
bong air freshener. (You'll have to see the DVD release to get this. In the movie
release Uncle Jesse, and two other characters, leave a smoke filled shed with
no reference to pot.) |
Real quotes
from the movie |
|
Uncle
Jesse: "Give me your Goddamned driving license!" Luke Duke: "What
license?" |
Will there be a sequel? |
|
Final
words: "See you later..." (Hope so, it was a fun movie). |
Other comments
|
| If
you like the idea of this movie then you will not be disappointed. Fast driving,
crazy stunts, some very good comedy, some very sexy moments (on the DVD release
that is, cert 15). A
very satisfactory updating of the almost-cult TV series. |
