Good idea lost in the noise
Best movie ever!
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

View MoreI have seen this movie at an opening that John attended. I loved the movie. John did a great job in bringing a family movie to the big screens. We need more movies like this. It was a fun movie. If you are NOT a Dukes of Hazzard fan, you will still enjoy this movie. I don't want to give too much of it away. For those of you reading this and are a Dukes fans, you will especially enjoy all the Dukes reference you'll see and hear. It brought back lots of memories. For kids, I would take my kids to see it. Again, it's a fun movie, has clean comedy in it, fast cars and great acting. I especially loved the ending. Well done John! I'd like to thank John for this wonderful movie and having the chance to met him, his wife Elly, his mother Shirley and all the promoters, Phyllis, Breet, and Allen. It was a wonderful night and a great movie. I will see it again.
View MoreJohn Schneider succeeded in doing what he set out to do and that was to create a movie that will appeal to moviegoers of all ages. The movie is quite entertaining and has a decent plot. If you expect a family movie that is so sugary sweet that anyone over the age of five won't be able to tolerate it, then you are in for a pleasant surprise. It is a well-written story with a little something for everyone. A definite must for all John Schneider fans and a good place to start for all those looking for a refreshing change of pace. They say the family that plays together stays together - with all the family members and friends that are part of the cast, you know the Schneider clan is a very cohesive unit. If you are a Dukes fan, you'll enjoy the stunts and the racing scenes.
View MoreI am proud to say I purchased a Collier and Co package through John's website and so was one of the first to get the DVD (movie not shown in NZ)Throughly enjoyed the story, and the feel good tone of the movie, Loved the nods to Johns previous work and also the funny asides - like the scene at the restaurant with the bikes parked in the disabled car park - VERY FUNNY! We have a four year old who loves the Dukes of Hazzard and he happily sat through the DVD! For all of you who want a feel good movie, where the good guys win and and laughs are kind, this is for you! I strongly suggest the big shots of Hollywood need to take note - THIIS THE KIND OF ENTERTAINMENT PEOPLE WANT!!! Given what the Dukes of Hazzard movie turned out like (I turned it off - couldn't stand it!) perhaps John should have written it!
View MoreI have watched The Dukes of Hazzard for many years as a child. Now my kids are watching to. My husband and I met Don Gilley and John and they were the nicest people and very nice to my two daughters. They came to Amarillo Texas and showed the movie and we all loved it and enjoyed having John and his crew there. He is really a talented man and should be given the opportunity to sell and have this movie produced by Hollywood. The movie is a lot like the Dukes of Hazzard and he is just as good. He is a very talented actor is deserving of having a great family movie be shown in the movie theaters. This is an EXCELLENT MOVIE!!!!!!
