Trivia
In this film, the General Lee's first jump was Hogg's Ravine, which was really big and nobody had jumped it before. This jump is based off the creek that made the first jump in the show, and was seen many times.

Goofs
The car that Bo finds in the water is clearly not a Dodge Charger. When he's by the door you can clearly see the door has a window frame. Dodge Chargers have frameless windows.

Quotes
Daisy Duke: [after being whistled at by numerous people in jail] I don't see what all the fuss is.
Luke Duke: It's probably because you're missing 99% of your pants.
Bo Duke: And the other 1% is covering your magic parts.

Not bad.

I just got it yesterday and it's not bad but a couple things just didn't quite tie in with the 2005 movie or the series, like how the Duke boys first got the General Lee was told differently in an episode in season 7. The location of Uncle Jesse's still was somewhere else on the farm and one of the doors on the General Lee opened while the other was welded shut. Also, they had the Dixie horn in the car already, but in the 2005 movie, Cooter and his friends have it installed while they are fixing the General Lee up.

They only jumped the General Lee once in the whole movie. Even though it was a huge jump, it didn't seem very convincing.

Most of the characters were better suited for their role, and they even had a somewhat more goofier and silly Rosco, which is the Rosco that I liked in the series. I think Cooter was too weird though.

April Scott definitely looked way better than Jessica Simpson.

They even had some funny jokes worth laughing at in this movie.
