Starsky and Hutch made cash. The Dukes are a legend; of course a no-brain white trash film set in the south with Jessica Simpson in Daisy Dukes will sell itself.
... unless of course, they screw the pooch so bad noone wants to see it.
Looking at the writing/directing credits (alphabetical order):
Jay Chandrasekhar
Jonathan Davis written by
Kevin Heffernan
Steve Lemme
John O'Brien
Paul Soter
Erik Stolhanske
Basically, except for the "written by" Jonathan Davis (for whom this will be the first film to come out), and John O'Brien (Cradle 2 the Grave and Starsky & Hutch) all the other writing credits belong to a group of Colgate Fratboys who put out a couple of B films under the name "Broken Lizard" (one a Police Academy ripoff, the other a Scary Movie clone), which featured humour heavily based in the gross-out and obscenity genre.
So my review:
"Yee-haw, saddle up the general lee and jump every bridge in the holler to see this trashed-up, grossed-out revival of the old classic! Scott and Knoxville give the performance of their lives as good ol' boys Bo and Luke, while Willie and Burt keep the film's moral compass pointed due South! The plot's as subtle as the moonshine Bo degreases the engine with, but who cares! Watchout Daisy! This boar's coming home to nest -- with Oscar!"
Y'all do realize that after this, they'll remake the A-Team.
