Editor's Note
In what may go down in history as the most irresponsible, outrageous footage ever to be released by a major Hollywood studio, Paramount Pictures presents JACKASS: THE MOVIE. Based on the MTV show of the same name, creators and coproducers Jeff Tremaine, Johnny Knoxville, and Spike Jonze stretch their surprisingly successful concept into a feature-length film. Watch cast regulars Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Bam Margera, Dave England, Ryan Dunn, Jason "Wee Man" Acuna, Preston Lacy, Ehren McGehey, and Brandon Dicamillo as they perform a series of ridiculously dangerous and dangerously stupid stunts. Entering a rental car in a crash-up derby, snorting wasabi, eating a urine-soaked snow-cone, self-inflicting paper cuts, and using a store's display toilet are just a few of the increasingly obscene antics that unfurl at a relentless pace. A large portion of the footage finds the pranksters in Japan, dressing up in outlandish outfits and wreaking havoc on the unsuspecting locals. Whether or not this is a hysterical romp or a waste of eighty minutes is for the viewer to decide, but the fact can't be argued, JACKASS: THE MOVIE is slapstick entertainment for the 21st Century, incorporating the modern world's fascination with reality television and obsession with disaster into a raucous, electrifying spectacle.

"Shrewdly, the Jackass gang didn't mess with their established formula in the transition to the big screen. Their feature debut plays like a longer episode of the show, with unbleeped obscenities and unfuzzed nudity...The structure is ruthlessly efficient: no plot, no characters, no sets, and no downtime - just one sight-gag right after another. Some of the best are quick visual one-liners, as when Johnny Knoxville trampolines into a ceiling fan, or attaches fireworks onto the heels of his roller skates to create ill-fated, Wile E. Coyote-style ""rocket skates"" that fuzz, spark, then slam his face onto the pavement. " - Ed Halter
San Francisco Examiner 9 of 10
"Jackass: The Movie is perfect for what it is--a bunch of, well, jackasses doing very stupid human tricks. There is no story; no plot; no script; no actors. It's brainless stunt after brainless stunt. And--I'm almost ashamed to admit this--it is the funniest movie I have ever seen in a theater. Fans of the TV show (of which I am obviously one) will not be disappointed because Jackass: The Movie is just the TV show stretched out to 90 minutes (each stunt runs about two or three minutes), but it includes plenty of stuff you'd never see on MTV, like full frontal nudity and lots and lots of swearing and vomiting." - Sonia Mansfield
