Choose life. (Deuteronomy 30:19)


Mistifyingly bawdy, cuss-filled remake of the well-loved family-friendly TV show.

If you can ignore those two elements then the rest of this is rather fun, and the most fun is to be found in the friendship of Seann William Scott and Johnny Knoxville as Bo and Luke Duke respectively.

The TV show used to go out on Monday nights in the UK when I was a kid, with the result that I would only ever catch the end of each edition due to going swimming that night. After actually watching a whole episode in Canada in '96, I formed the opinion that this had been a fortuitous way to see the series, figuring that the car chase at the end was what it was really all about.

In that respect, this movie certainly doesn't disappoint. The final act is an adrenaline-fuelled tour de force, even giving 1997's Dukes Of Hazzard: Reunion! movie a run for its money.
