This movie was wrong on so many levels. It was as expected though. Jessica Simpson flat out can not act. We all knew that. But she wasn't the worst singer trying to be actor in this flick. That honor goes to Willie Nelson. His lines were mechanical and painful to hear. There had to have been someone better that auditioned to play Uncle Jesse. The paper thin plot line was about equal to one episode of the TV show in strength. It basically serves as an excuse to drive the General Lee all over Georgia to some VERY sweet stunts with a secondary purpose of letting us see Daisy show off her assets. Note that the boys seemingly drive all night to Atlanta to get the core samples tested but when they run in trouble with the law, Daisy shows up to save the day immediately. Just a minor complaint. Possibly most annoying was the character of Billy Prickett, the towns favorite son and four-time winner of the road rally. He not only looked exactly like Ben Stiller's character in Dodgeball, he was played the same. There was some entertainment value to this movie. I did enjoy it to some extent and got exactly what I was expecting.

@bob-frapples ... could not agree more. The sadness to me is how mis-cast it was. Burt Reynolds as Boss Hogg... why? and yes, the stunts were good, the characters dumb... but the soundtrack saves the day a few times and despite the phoned in performances and terrible accents, I couldn't hate it as much as I wanted to...having grown up in south Georgia, with a Charger, & a steady diet of Duke boys, it did bring back some good memories despite the fact the movie downright mocks the source material.
