Movie Reviews of Jackass - The Movie (Unrated Special Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: Not my piece of cake, but maybe it's yours
Summary: 2 Stars
Sigh, it's finally happened: the generation gap thing. I NEVER trash something that's primarily aimed at younger people and doesn't resonate all that much with me; I can usually find something to like about it. But "Jackass: The Unrated Edition"? Okay, I'll start with something positive. SOME of this movie is amusing and entertaining: the rental car that's returned after Johhny Knoxville enters it into a stock car race and trashes it thoroughly; the "old man" (one of the "Jackass" guys in make-up) who is caught shoplifting in a convenience store and keeps on shoplifting even after he's caught and repeatedly yelled at, and one or two other things. But too much of this movie is just gross and/or stupid. Maybe that's the point, I don't know. But wincing at numerous scenes of self-mutilation and self-induced vomiting wasn't fun or entertaining but, well... wince-inducing. But too each his or her own. This unrated edition contains a longer cut of the original theatrical release of the movie, as well as more extra scenes among the special features. Knock yourself out if this is for you-- it's certainly a generous DVD. But I think I'll go watch something else now.
Summary of Jackass - The Movie (Unrated Special Collector's Edition)
All the jackasses you love from the MTV series are back performing stunts no one would let them pull on television.Some critics see the success of Jackass: The Movie as the last nail in the coffin of civilization, and they're probably right. This compilation of pain-inflicting stunts and embarrassing pranks has no artistic merit whatsoever--which doesn't keep it from being freakishly entertaining. Among other things, Johnny Knoxville and his posse get beaten up by a female kick-boxing champion; shoot bottle rockets out of their rectums; run amok in Japan wearing giant panda bear costumes; swim with whale sharks while holding pounds of brine shrimp in their swimsuits; and get done up in realistic old-age makeup so that they can race each other in motorized wheelchairs, among other goofs. It's a weird mixture of machismo and masochism, adolescent recklessness and frat boy homoeroticism, and someday someone will write a doctoral thesis about how Jackass relates to our safety-obsessed society. In the meantime, just enjoy. --Bret Fetzer
