Laugh Until You Throw Up...Or Was It The Other Way Around...?
18 February 2007
It's tough to really consider this as an actual 'movie'. Sequel to 2002's "Jackass: The Movie", this movie is just another extension of the MTV television series with skits you could never, ever....EVER show on television. The entire Jackass crew returns for this sequel, in which they take their stunts to extremes that blow away their previous efforts.

This flick had me laughing insanely through the entire 95 minutes, though I admit to having low standards for humor sometimes. This movie is not classy, thought-provoking, inspiring, heart-warming, or anything else people look for in a motion picture. Of course, if you go to any movie with the word JACKASS in the title in search of the next Oscar-winner, you're barking up the wrong tree. Though, if you're looking for some great low-brow, oftentimes sickening, entertainment, you've found it. I'm going to assume the only people reading this comment are those who are familiar with the style of comedy associated with the show.

If you've got a weak stomach, BEWARE. My ex-wife almost lost her dinner on multiple occasions while watching this with me. The things these guys do for money (especially Chris Pontius and Steve-O) will boggle the mind and churn your stomach. If you're anything like me, you'll be horrified by what you're seeing but you can't turn away. I won't bother talking about any of the sketches specifically, since I wouldn't want to ruin anything for potential viewers.

I guess I like these movies because they remind me of anytime I'm hanging with my friends and someone starts a conversation with "Dude, I dare you to..." or "Wouldn't it be funny if...". Of course, our dares never pan out. Then again, my friends aren't being offered the kind of money the Jackass crew rakes in. Would I recommend this movie to a friend? Hell yeah. But, like a visit to the dentist's office, remember not to eat anything for a couple hours before viewing.

You've been warned.
