Best movie ever!

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Johnny Knoxville and company return for the third installment of their television show spin-off, where dangerous stunts and explicit public displays rule.Due to Steve-O going through rehab, these were all sober stunts (or at least stunts done without alcohol on set). That takes some respect. I once slammed into a fence going down a water slide. It hurt for weeks, and had I not been drinking at the time, it would have been traumatic.While you would think they had done every painful or gross stunt possible at this point, you would be wrong: some, such as beehive tetherball, really raise the stakes.Dan Kois described the film as "a touching ode to male friendship at its most primal". That is a fair assessment. This is, underneath it all, a group of buddies having fun. Maybe not the kind of fun you have with your friends (or maybe you do), but fun just the same.

The third in the popular Jackass franchise, this movie breaks all barriers with the relentless grossness, explicitness and amazing stunts. Knoxville and crew perform so many hardcore stunts that you will be left with your mouth agape at many occasions. The sequences are ingenuous and vomit inducing and those with a weak heart and stomach should stay away from this. All the others are welcome to see this and be amazed and repelled at the same time. Had a great time. 4 out of 5. Delivers more, much more then what its premise promised. no wonder it went on to earn 117 million dollars which is kind of amazing considering there is not a single star or story. Two thumbs up.

Jacka 3 (2010)*** (out of 4) Needless to say this movie isn't going to be for everyone but if you enjoy watching people torture themselves while you sit comfortably on your couch then this is a must see. With Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and the gang are back in this latest installment and after watching it you really have to wonder how low they will go if they want another one released. This one here reaches pretty high on the foul and vile department especially a sequence towards the end with Steve-O flying and coming down with something that I won't spoil. If you've already seen the movie then you know what I'm talking about and I really don't see how they're going to top something like this. There are some even crazier moments including one skit where grandpa is making out with his granddaughter, which is priceless and especially the reaction of the man witnessing it. One of the most memorable sequences has the guys using super glue to rip off each other's body hair. I'm really curious to what these guys get paid to do this. Either way, obviously this film isn't going to be for everyone but if you can put up with the abuse these guys go through then you're going to be in for a good time. I would argue that the first two films were a tad bit better as there are a few gags here that don't work all that well but for the most part the film still delivers enough to make it worth viewing for fans of the series.

Let me preface this by admitting from the outset, I ain't a Jackass kind of guy. Whilst I enjoy crude humour that pushes boundaries, the entire Jackass concept and' imitation culture' just irritates me, and I had never given it the time of day before this viewing. I watched Jackass 3 perched upon a high horse…Lead by the charismatic Johnny Knoxville, the team engage in the typical risky, gross-out and painful stunts one would expect, given the reputation that precedes them. From a poo volcano, to fart bubbles…from a dildo bazooka to a tooth pulling Lamborghinis…the film contains a diverse cocktail of gross out filth and traditional slapstick 'ouch' moments.**SPOILER ALERT** And speaking of cocktails, the 'Poo Cocktail Supreme' is perhaps one of the more memorable things I've seen caught on film recently. For those who haven't seen it, the skit involves rigging a port-a-loo to bungee cables, strapping Steve-O inside, and thrusting it into the air to send an explosive poo spray all over the poor fool inside. Such moments carry a certain power; one which manages to induce a gag reflex and a chuckle simultaneously.I didn't watch the film in its 3D presentation, so the potency of the gross out may have been lost on the small screen. The added dimension would have provided a fun atmosphere to enjoy the shenanigans, and I can imagine watching the film in a packed cinema (of which I hear there were many throughout the $50 million opening weekend in the US) would be a unique and unforgettable experience. One thing that really irritated me about the film was the excessive laughter by the Jackass team. I know laughter is infectious, but I found it forced, disproportionate to the events, and ultimately grating.With no narrative, no point and no character, Jackass 3 is a curious film to give a rating to. It is just good ol' fashion grotesque. Whilst I can't claim to have been impressed with the standard of film making, I fell off my high horse, and if gross out slapstick is your cup of tea (or cup of urine?), then rent Jackass 3 for a heady swig.
