Jackass 2.5

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.

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.

Jackass's 2nd installment produced a lot of footage, and some of it didn't make it into the final cut. after the success of jackass 2, the crew decided to take some of the unused footage, put it together, and make jackass 2.5 and turn it into a 40 minute docu-drama. well, not so much.

while it wasn't much of a drama, it took some stunts that wern't as funny as the other ones, but still could make you laugh.

I somewhat enjoyed it, but most of the stunts involved having foreign objects placed up someone's butt. like anal beads, baby powder, straws, and massage cream. also, a lot of bodily waste ended up on human skin (Urine is a good example) if that sickens you, don't bother with this.

it's also got a few extra features, like the making of the video game, and bonus stunts done after number 2's release. it's worth a rental.

7/10

This is basically the same as a DVD featurette for the movie "Jackass Number Two" with cut material and some behind the scenes footage. They say that they filmed so much material for "Jackass Number Two" and it was enough to make a whole new movie with and that's why they made "Jackass 2.5". But seriously, isn't this simply anything more than a simple way to cash in more of the success of the previous Jackass movies and TV show, one year after the release of "Jackass Number Two"?

It already sort of says it, this movie is filled with material that didn't end up in "Jackass Number Two", which basically means it are left overs, so it isn't as good as the things you can see in "Jackass Number Two". Yes of course the movie will still make you laugh but it just isn't as good and solid as "Jackass Number Two".

First they show an entire sequence and then next they tell us why this part didn't ended up being in "Jackass Number Two". Now this just doesn't seem right and actually quite pointless. Or at least it is for a movie. Like I said before, as a DVD featurette this would work out but just not like this.

It's fun to see the cast and crew talking about the making of "Jackass Number Two" and telling how they got their ideas but once more, this would of course work out better as a DVD featurette.

Yes, for most part this movie is still great fun to watch and of course still a must see for the die hard fans but even they shall most likely end up being disappointed with this product that you just can't really call a movie.

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.
