Jackass: Number Two

Jackass The Movie (Uncle Cliff)
The ante has well and truly been upped. The only way Knoxville and his band of stunt junkies can top this film in stupid pranks, dangerous deeds, and vomit-inducing moments of horrifying disgustingness is to make a film that’s pretty much pure porn where they actually fuck each other (for laughs), eat each other’s shit, or accidentally make a snuff film where some of them actually die (for laughs). Otherwise this can’t be topped. I love these guys for pushing the boundaries of humour and taste, but even I had to look at the floor at times; whether it was Steve-O putting a fish-hook through his own cheek, Party-Boy drinking horse semen, or one of their less famous counterparts eating horse shit. The best moments here are Knoxville’s demented genius at recreating Loony Toons cartoons. That he always seems just an inch or two away from grievous bodily harm is as scary as it is funny. If you have seen and like the show then you’ll be aware you’re just getting an amped up elongated version, and if you hate the show and the first movie then what the hell are you doing watching this anyway?
