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.

This should have a been an extra feature on the Jackass Number Two DVD. It has some great moments, some not so great, and some sickening things.

If you're a Jackass fan you should see it, but paying so much to see it isn't the best idea. These are basically the rejected scenes not used in Number Two, and for some you'll understand why. Some is just inappropriate, but so hilarious like the original stuff. Ever since the first Jackass movie, they've all been pushing the limits of what they can do, and lately the more disgusting and cruder stuff comes out like more nudity and vomiting. It also seems more Hollywood, but nonetheless another piece of Jackass.

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.

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.
