I remember seeing a preview of this movie back in March, 2007 on ABC Family when I was 9 years old at the time and as a big Dukes of Hazzard fan, I was very excited about this movie. I did watch many episodes of the original TV show and I absolutely enjoyed it very much with great car action, comedy, and family values that made the show so awesome. When I turned on the this movie known as "The Beginning", the excitement I had faded away immediately with the crude acting and inappropriate behavior of the plot and I immediately shut my TV off, hoping to never see it again.
Years later, now an adult in my 20's, I found clips and reviews of this movie on YouTube that made me glad I didn't watch the whole movie. It has some of the worst acting and cinematography from a major film studio and I didn't realize that they made it unrated for the dvd release! Nudity and inappropriate behavior has no business being in a Dukes of Hazzard movie and its an insult to the original series and the 2005 movie which I actually enjoy. If you are a Dukes of Hazzard fan of either the TV show, the 2005 movie, or both, don't bother with this "Dukes" movie, its not worth it. Sadly this is the last form of Dukes media by Warner Bros. And I can see why they haven't done much with the Dukes of Hazzard franchise since then.
