Customer Reviews of Jackass - The Movie (Widescreen Special Edition)
A Perfectly Named Movie: "Jackass" Delivers Laughs "Jackass: The Movie" brings the anctics of Johnny Knoxville and his crew to the big screen in a movie that is really a glorified edition of the MTV "reality" T.V. show. Unlike the limitations they face on the censors of television, this group takes their bizarre combination of reckless stunts and gag humor to a whole new level of shock humor that will leave the audience clammoring for more, even as they reach for a barf bag at some of the "gags" (literally) in this film.
The movie, which runs just a little over 70 minutes, is a little disappointing in its brevity. Many of the shorts within the film (all filmed with a series of hand-held video cameras) are little more than elaborate pranks played on unsuspecting victims. Some of these stunts, such as when one of the boys decides to deficate in a display model toilet inside a hardware store, are downright gross, and nothing is left to the imagination. Others, as when Knoxville rents a car, enters it in a demolition derby, then returns the car later on a flatbed truck, demanding compensation for the rental of an unsafe vehicle, is genuinely hilarious.
The reason for the four star rating is that the movie, which did contain some incredibly funny skits, also meandered some, relying on staples from the television show that really had no business being elevated to the big screen. Also, the movie's shortness of length left the audience wanting for more. Finally, as this is a review of the DVD edition of this film, the last disappointment comes in the fact that the additions of extra footage available on the DVD were pretty disappointing as a whole.
Still, "Jackass: The Movie" won't disappoint. For fans of the show, this movie is the culmination of stunts developed over the several seasons of the show on MTV. For those who have never experienced Jackass, well, put your brain on hold and feel free to laugh at the mindless, outrageous, hilarious anctics of a group of men who really are a bunch of "jackass"es. Its fun in its stupidity, and worth at least a casual viewing.

Follow the bouncing rating!
I think it's pretty safe to assume that we all know the general theme in the show/movie Jackass. It's just like anything that's offensive. If you don't like seeing things like people throwing up or being generally stupid, you won't like this movie. Don't try and fool yourself by watching it thinking, "I hate the show, but maybe I'll like the movie."
For those who can read all the reasons why this movie was rated "R" and feel they won't be offended or grossed out seeing such things, you'll love this movie. Unlike the show where they occationally take a short break to show skateboarding clips, the movie never takes a break. I found myself slightly nautious at times, not because of the content, but because I laughed so hard my stomach went from hurting to nautious.
For those who don't own TV's and have never seen Jackass, the general concept is this. Have you ever been sitting around and thought to yourself, I wonder what would happen if I ________? Or, have you ever said to your friend, I dare you to ________? Jackass is a bunch of guys who fill in the blanks and do them. Why? Because the get paid a ton of money to act dumb, laugh, and not work regular jobs. Also known as what most people refer to as a "dream job."
Unlike the show, this movie has very little repetition. You don't see the same joke done about 5 times throughout the show, making the movie only that much more better.
Jackass is hilarious. No way around that fact. As long as you're not easily offended, you'll agree. The only stupid thing about the Jackass phenomenon are the [people] who know what the show is about, see it, and then refuse to shut up about how horrible it is. It's like anything offensive. If you don't like it, don't watch it. If you claim you didn't know it was going to be offensive... Move to France.
HILARIOUS
I bought this movie without ever seeing it and I was glad I bought it. It made me laugh so hard I could'nt breathe. This movie is just a lot of short stunts that will have you laughing every time you see them. I recommend this movie for any fans of the show or MTV. You will never stop laughing when you see this.
