I like the Jackass stuff better but this was entertaining in a different way. I kinda like how it seems to be mostly scripted but with a lot of obviously unpleasant stuff. Of course that is what us sickos want. The scripting allows it to go to new horrible heights you could never visit in a strictly realistic setting. I kept expecting some character to die. I was also surprised to see that some of these guys can actually act a little. It's a shame that a couple of them can't act, but then I'm sure I couldn't do it either. If more of these movies are made I hope they get some acting lessons. I like the self-parody and would be interested to see more.

As you can tell from my review of Viva La Bam, I love the ridiculous slapstick comedy and rich boy shenanigans he brings to the table. This is a spin-off of the show that is most similar to Haggard in execution, with a scripted story and whatnot. It allows, if you let yourself suspend your disbelief, for the fantastical elements to be a welcome touch. While the plot and premise may be dumb, was Bam Margera ever actually smart?

I used to like the "jackass" series because the cast included cool people who were doing crazy cool stuff ... all were taking part and sharing the humiliation and pain. They really liked it and enjoyed doing it. I liked watching it ... This movie which tries to ride on the same semi success waves it a totally different thing. The previously young jackass member, BAM, got a bit older and is trying to become JonnyK by building a team and leading a so called exploration mission. The problems start with the BAM character which appears as a really bad person and an nasty human being. There is NO DNA connection to Stivo or the "party boy". Not sure what went wrong but during the entire movie he's just molesting and humiliating his gang while actually doing nothing else. This is not fun to watch. After few min' you feel so empathic to those people who really hate this BAM and will do whatever is necessary to get their pay check … the level of abuse is really something new. In addition, there is nothing really interesting there to watch … no story, no crazy things, no cool stuff, nothing !!! Just two abuse stories, one at Finland and one at the states. Bottom line, this is really a sad movie to watch. I truly hope the so called gang made some money out of it, but as it seems, I'm positive that BAM made sure this won't happen and "sold" them the future upside of becoming famous … with a tattoo to prove it

Not sure what people are expecting lol it's not gonna be like watching interstellar. This is a fun movie with fun vibes. Bam goes to Finland to find Santa with his buddies and bring him back for Christmas. It's not necessarily super funny, but it's just a good time. It's also very nostalgic. If you grew up during good ol' MTV days then of-course you will most definitely enjoy this. Especially if you were or still are a skater. Bam was also different then, he partied, but still cared about his life. He seems to be doing much better these days. Anyways if you liked the older mtv days when music and skating was much bigger give it a watch. Definitely give it a watch if you are a fan of Jackass or Cky videos.
