Format:DVD
DO NOT do as I did, i tried to watch this movie on a long haul flight, the guy in front of me got my dinner all over the back of his head! While others slept i was curled up in my seat trying to suppress my laughter.
Ballsier and more gross than the original film it will make you laugh and gag in equal amounts and Jackass 2.5 is even longer (nearly 45mins) than the cinema release, when it's over you will wonder many things - why would a man drink horse semen? why is it still funny to see a guy kicked in the balls? why do my ribs hurt so much?
Remember - this is only for the hardcore, your aunt will hate it.

Format:DVD
Following on from the surprise success of the first Jackass film this sequel continues the usual scenes of painful stunts and pranks. There's no story here and the only sequence which sets this apart from the TV series is the the very filmlike (and pretty ambitious) opening sequence where the cast are chased down a street by some pretty fearsome looking cattle! As they scream in slow motion and hurl themselves through windows, trellis and cars the tone is set for an hour and a half of mayhem - some of it you may struggle to watch!
Jackass presents on screen a variety of puerile events which really ought to be dismissed as childish and brainless, but somehow the guys manage to endear themselves to the viewer. As well as making you laugh by subjecting their bodies to some extreme punishments they also come across as a solid unit of friends, it's obvious they feel comfortable with each others company and don't seem to mind appearing nude with each other either! There are parts of the DVD where they joke about the fact that the film is basically a homo-erotic feature and although they say it in jest it's refreshing to see a film where the 'bro-mance' isn't scripted or contrived - this is a genuinely close group who would just as easily console a crying member as hit them with a bin lid.
The special features menu on the DVD initially looks quite sparse, but as you enter the options you reveal an expansive set of bonuses. The deleted, extended, and alternate scenes give you another half an hour of entertainment which isn't quite as good as that in the film but still well worth a watch. The 'making of' documentary is actually pretty interesting and explores the reasons why they wanted to make another film.
In a nutshell: This isn't in any way cerebral but it made me laugh almost constantly throughout. There was only one point I couldn't look at the screen (it involves a fish hook) but for the majority of the film you almost feel like part of the group - sharing the joke. There are warnings at the start and end of the film requesting that you don't try this at home - presumably just in case you find yourself with the opportunity to put an anaconda in a ball pool.

This is additional footage that was filmed when making Jackass 2 and I am so, so glad they put that on a DVD ...more absolute work of genius from the boys! If you are a fan of the Jackass films or series just buy this DVD because it will have you laughing just as much of the rest of their work - arguably more.

so-so
Was a bit of a waste of time, had some parts that i had not seen before. It was more interviews than skits. Not really what i expected it to be from Jackass.

waste of money
This movie is nothing more than left-overs from number 2. Not even worth watching really, quite surprised this was even worth releasing.

All the stuff they couldn't show in cinemas (for a very good reason)
Now don't get me wrong, I love Jackass, but this is scraping the bottom of the barrel...
Consider: This is not just all the stuff they couldn't show in cinemas. Read more
