Jackass 4.5

I've been a Jackass fan since MTV and I enjoyed Jackass Forever. There were some funny moments in 4.5, as well. But.after all the talk about how much good footage they had that didn't make Forever, this had way too much talking and narrative and not enough stunts.

It was much more similar to Jackass 2.5 than 3.5 in that regard. It's still enjoyable to watch. And I don't mind getting the background, but it was a little disappointing to me.

I wasn't a fan of the theatrical release of jackass forever, I didn't really like the stunts etc and wasn't overly keen on the newbies. I thought this was quite entertaining and enjoyed it more than the actual film.

So many good stunts that had me laughing out loud. Commentary added some fun backstory on the stunts and how the movie came to be made. The bouncy house blowing up? Awesome.

In some ways, I kind of prefer these Jackass.5 movies to the actual films. The behind-the-scenes, talking-head interview style enhances the documentary leanings of the franchise in super fun & fascinating ways. You get a better idea of how insane it is to make these movies & the tole it takes on the cast & crew. Dark Shark is solidified as king of this production.

If you like Jackass then watch it, if you don't then stay away from the rating button. Your opinion on something you already don't like; is irrelevant.
