Jackass 2.5

This is an interesting cash grab. You had enough footage where you could make this and it runs over an hour. Jaime and I saw Forever in the theater and while we didn't want to watch a TV show, this was mindless fun so we binged through 1, 2 and now this.

I believe we both saw this before. This time around, I love the documentary feel here. There's probably 45 minutes of stunts not used, but then they talk to cast and crew. This gives a bit more behind the scenes feel which I liked. Not as good, but still fun and worth a watch if you're a fan of Jackass.

My Rating: 6.5 out of 10.

Unless watched along with Jackass 2, the behind the scenes isn't that funny on its own. Most of the stunts are rejects that didn't work. Still some good stuff though.

More of a documentary than a true Jackass film that's barely feature length. However, Jackass 2.5 is still really good and insightful, enjoyably exploring how a Jackass gets made and still has some fun and satisfyingly painful stunts. Jeff Tremaine's direction is good, the stunts are always well filmed and it's got a really fun opening. All of the sketches are worth watching and have their moments even if you can see why they didn't make the final cut.

I love all the Jackass and this one was pretty good. Not bad for one that didn't come out in the movies. NIce to see all of the extra bonus footage that was missed from the films.

Some never seen skits here which were a joy to watch. And honestly in general I didn't think any of them were that much worse than the ones we saw in Number Two. Except for maybe the King Kong skit as that was a bit lackluster.

What this also shows is a bit more behind the scenes of people bailing out or getting agitated and showing that it's not all fun and games. It makes sense of course and is good not to have in the main film but it was nice to see here. Generally don't miss out with this if you liked number two/jackass.
