theme from the dukes of hazzard (good ol' boys)
in 2008, paul mavis of dvdtalk called the film "a silly little trifle that somewhat approximates the feel of the original show," but wrote, "it doesn't help, right out of the gate, that the dukes of hazzard: reunion! starts off with a different theme song […], making the viewer momentarily stop and wonder what they're watching - particularly since that jennings theme song is so ingrained in the original dukes experience." mavis further stated "there's no denying that the loss of sorrell booke (who had died in 1994) impacts the franchise greatly." mavis felt that stevens' character "is so sketchily laid out, that even her funny bits with bach fall largely flat," and noted that james best's scenes feel "forced and rather lonely" without booke: "we're left with a scene with best, almost crying over a portrait of boss hogg. i don't want to see that in a dukes reunion film." mavis believed that wopat "seems alternately distant or grumpy" compared to schneider; that pyle "is visibly ill and failing"; and that the new characters of bertha jo and bubba did "absolutely nothing for the hazzard mythos, while returning characters enos, cooter and cletus aren't given a whole lot to do […]. as for the action, it's not plentiful enough, either, to compare with the earlier tv series."
