Summary: Not my piece of cake, but maybe it's yours
Comment: 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: There Will Be a Jackass 3
Comment: It's true AND it rhymes. Top that. Of course there will be another. Why kill a cash cow that takes almost no money to produce? It's money in the bank. Mooooooooooo. Cha-Ching!
I freely admit I, a college graduate who loves to read and watch foreign movies, thoroughly enjoyed Jackass. Sure, I was dead drunk when I watched it but, still, I died laughing. This movie is Idiocracy, here and now. Watch the Mike Judge movie, Idiocracy, to see what I mean. What is the difference between the television show "Ow, My Balls" featured in Idiocracy and Jackass? None. Also notice the raptness with which "Ow, My Balls" is watched by the movie's character and consider the popularity of the Jackass series. Hmmm.
A bunch of crazy-as-foxes goofs humiliate and torture themselves for your viewing pleasure. A lot of reviews opine that these guys are a bunch of morons. Nonsense. They are wildly creative, impossible to embarrass and daring. We pay good money to sit on our couches in the comfort of our homes and point and laugh. Who are the real morons? Like, duh. Johnny Knoxville is a multi-millionaire actor/writer/producer. What have you or I accomplished recently?
Johnny Knoxville and co. are taking advantage of the fact that suffering sells as long as it's cloaked as wacky stunts & comedy. People like to watch other people be hurt and humiliated. They just do. Who knows why. Maybe because pain and humiliation are inevitable in life and misery loves company. Whatever. All Knoxville and his buddies have done is take an Adam Sandler or Jim Carrey comedy and taken out all the plot and characters and sets and any anything else that might be the slightest bit distracting and served up an entire highlight reel of jokes and stunts. In doing so, they and their audience make an invaluable contribution to the dumbing-down of America. Congratulations all around.

Summary: Why Do You Think THey Call It "Jackass" Anyhow??
Comment: KNowing what to expect coming in, "Jackass" fullfilled all my expectations and also surpassed them. For those who don't know, they film is a string of short stunts by a group of very brave/foolish skaters who are constantly testing the bounds of their own destruction and torquing unsuspecting bystanders in the process. Imagine the old "Candid Camera" show on PCP. Yeah, way cool!
The first scene made me fall in love with the concept when Johnny Knoxville with a straight face tries to return a trashed rental car he's just used for demo derby and ask earnestly for his deposit to be returned.Other highlights are "mobile roller disco", the human mouse trap and some of the stupidest(but funniest)destructive and dangerous concepts you will be glad someone else is doing.
Editing is great, the director transitions from stunt to stunt without trepidation or hesitation. I could have watched another hour of this without tiring.

Summary: Better have a good trial lawyer
Comment: Jackass: The Movie
Jackass: The Movie is made up of all the dumb, mindless pranks you'd expect of a college fraternity without any adult supervision.
The movie including the DVD is not without merit, however. If you have an annoying neighbor with teenage boys this might make an ideal Christmas present. You'd want to give it anonymously, of course.
Sure there are warnings throughout the movie DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME. You and I both know that a teenage boy is going to ignore those and try them anyway. That's where the anonymity comes in handy, Nobody can sue you.
Highly recommended for people with annoying teenage boys as neighbors and for any teenage boy you just don't like very much.

Summary: APPROPRIATELY NAMED! TOTAL STUPIDITY BUT, HILARIOUS!
Comment: I sat down and watched this movie and found myself saying......what a Jackass! The name of this film is so appropriate that I could not stop laughing. It's a one trick pony but, it is extremely funny and disgusting at the same time! I found this DVD for under $5.00 and it was worth every penny with all the extras included. I give it 3 1/2 stars for making money out of being a total Jackass!

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
