Review of Jackass 2.5 (2007) by John T — 02 May 2008

Lets get some things straight. Jackass is immature , its dangerous , its irresponsible but most of all it's bloody funny!!

I know this brand of humour does not appeal to a lot of people and what goes on in these films is extremely childish but for some reason I cant help but find it funny and I'm not going to start apologising for it now!

As if going ""number two"" wasn't enough Johnny Knoxville and the entire crew from Jackass return in yet another insane foray into stupidity - Jackass 2.5. Featuring all the stuff they couldn't show you before the boys take their stunts to all-new heights that will leave you laughing squirming and begging for more.

When this film is describes as " All the stuff they couldn't show " in Jackass 2 , what they really mean is its all the stuff that was not good enough for Jackass 2 !

It's just another way to milk a little bit more money out of the Jackass phenomenon.

Despite that , this straight to DVD feature it is extremely entertaining.

My favourite scene is when the crew gets Preston painted up like King Kong and they make him to stand on top a Porto loo and buzz him with remote control aeroplanes while he is suffering a genuine severe bout of vertigo!

To be honest I would not recommend paying money to buy this on DVD even if you are fan. It feels like an extras section that should be put on DVD and the guys make no bones about the fact that what you a seeing is the off cuts from Jackass 2.

I'm sure it wont be long before Jackass 2.5 will be shown on MTV anyway.

I know this wont appeal to most who read my blogs but it makes a change to review something that is completely different from what I normally watch.

6 out of 10.
