 Well today my wife,daughter,and I went to see the Dukes movie,and being the fan I am I was ready to hate it.
But for the most part it was pretty good the only 2 probs I had was that Johnny Knoxville was in it and the guy that plays Roscoe was a terrible actor.
The car scenes are great and the Rally driver they hired was amazing definetly worth the Money,and if your in it for just the car stuff there's plenty to keep ya busy.

I loved it!!! You're right, MC Gainey (Roscoe) was horrible and the accents were ear splitting...but the stunts and driving were great.  I loved the outtakes too.   Gonna see it again soon.

I am planning to see it Saturday night. The theater in town had a local guy bring out his General Lee to put on display for the movie tonight.

I was busy working to get my Charger done tonight so I missed the premier.

Loved it... Didn't set my sights too high as far as the acting, "and or accents" and it didn't dissapoint.

Lots of good one liners... "Jesse is a bit much though". And the stunts are some of the best i've ever seen.

Lots of tore up Chargers though... :(

I liked it too.

I had a hard time believing there would be that many people that didn't like the flag in Atlanta, the deep south, of all places. I can see if they drove it up above the mason/dixon line into the yankee territory possibly, but not in Atlanta or anywhere in the south. Last time I was in Tennesee I'd see people with rebel flags stuck on their vehicles, licence plate frames, etc. Oh well.

Only thing I really didn't appreciate of the movie was the ton of foul language that they used so innocently, and also the drug (marijuana) use that they showed in a few scenes.
Speed kills, but you get there faster.

Loved the car action scenes, great jumps and just plain seeing the General Lee. However I didn't like the use of all the foul language. I mean a few here and there would have been overlooked, but it seemed like they were just swearing to hear themselves swear.

i didn't care for the whole weed scenes either.
