Johnny Knoxville and his crew of fun-loving masochists bring their routines to the big screen in this feature adaptation of the popular but controversial MTV series Jackass. A crew of young men perform a variety of strange, painful, and often humiliating stunts for the amusement of themselves and those around them, including crawling across dozens of mousetraps while wearing rodent make-up, being rolled down bowling lanes on skateboards, racing in golf carts across an ancient driving range, giving themselves self-inflicted paper cuts, making snow cones out of urine, tightrope walking over live alligators, using uninstalled sanitary plumbing in a hardware store, terrifying Japanese pedestrians while wearing panda costumes, and much, much more. Johnny Knoxville, the show's creator and star, returns to head up this movie version of Jackass, along with series regulars Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn, Chris Pontius, Steve-O, Dave England, Jason "Wee Man" Acuna, Preston Lacy, Ehren McGhehey, and Brandon DiCamillo; Henry Rollins, Tony Hawk, and Spike Jonze are among the movie's guest stars. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

is neutral about it.
Fans of the MTV series that birthed this cinematic experience probably knew exactly what they were expecting when they walked into the theater. The real surprise is that Jackass: The Movie may provoke belly laughs even from viewers who have long since outgrown the music channel's young demographic. The obnoxiousness of the participants' adolescent humor and the nauseous and/or violent nature of their pranks will probably never endear the film to high-minded members of any gender, class or social enclave. But the simple truth is that these random stunts and absurdist provocations are just about the most inventive humor to grace the screen in your typical megaplex in quite some time. Audiences who can't see the joke in attaching a bottle rocket to one's genitals, engaging in golf-cart and rental-car terrorism, or allowing an unsuspecting doctor to x-ray the toy crammed into one's posterior orifice may want to stay well away from Jackass: The Movie. If strapped to a chair and forced to watch, however, they may take at least a scientific interest in the preponderance of barely-sublimated xenophobia and homoeroticism displayed by the often half-clothed performers as they harass each other and their international victims. And if, while formulating sociological treatises about such weighty issues, these worthy viewers should happen to emit a chuckle or two, why, it doesn't necessarily signal the end of Western civilization. So what's the take-home message for both teen fans and adult initiates? Given the omnipresent banality of reality TV, it's just nice to see real people doing something a little less commonplace than grubbing for money, succumbing to sexual temptation or going postal on their cohabitants. ~ Brian J.
