Jackass 3-D (2010) |

I can say without a doubt that Jackass 3D is one film set I would never want to visit. It would be really cool to meet these guys and maybe hang out with them…from a distance. And by “distance” I mean hang out with them in the sense where I’m in a movie theater and they’re on the screen. I had a hella fun time doing that and I didn’t get peed on or slapped in the face or hit in the crotch with anything!

Any jackass can film themselves getting hurt, but when Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Steve-O, and friends come together to do it, it’s just pure magic. The Jackass boys have such a great chemistry together, and all of them are hilarious in their own unique ways. There’s a demented genius to the stunts they pull off. They don’t just fart on each other and run away. They fart into a blow dart and pop a balloon hanging from another guy’s butt crack.

I love the film, and I laughed hysterically the whole time. Sometimes a person just needs to relax and have a little fun with a no brainer film like this one. No plot and no lesson (other than “Don’t try this at home”). I have always enjoyed the Jackass films and TV shows and this one is no exception.

Now that the boys are older, they didn’t seem as energized in this film as their previous one. And there was definitely a lot more of them grumbling, “I don’t want to do this,” which made them seem a bit more normal and made it that much funnier when they ended up doing whatever horrible stunt they were just complaining about.

Jackass 3D is a great example of how 3-D can work well and add to your movie experience in a positive way. There were a lot of amazing, slow motion action shots of someone getting shot with something gross or slapped in the face with something even grosser. This slow-motion effect combined with the 3-D heightened the anticipation for the eventual hit to the face/testicles, and definitely made for one entertaining and disgusting ride. Be warned, however – anyone who can’t handle seeing penises, vomit, poop, or any bodily excrement might not want to watch this film.

Time Until Action Begins: ~ 1 minute

Best Answer to a Question: Question: “Do you think he’s going to catch the ball?” Answer: “Who gives a sh**?!?” Courtesy of Ryan Dunn.

Best Crotch Shot: My favorite would have to be Dunn hitting a baseball attached to a tee right into the balls of Steve-O. He sank to the ground faster than a dead Mafia snitch with a cement block tied to his feet.

Most Disgusting Moment: There were a lot of vomit inducing moments in this film, but I can stomach just about anything…except vomit itself. One stunt involved Preston Lacy (the porky one) wrapped in saran wrap on an exercise machine. They gathered all his nasty crack sweat into a cup for Steve-O to drink. A lot of the guys were dry heaving before Steve-O even drank the cup full of butt sweat, but he did it and immediately started hurling, with a vengeance. The nasty sweat part didn’t get me. Bam rubbing a cloth up and down Preston’s ass crack and wringing out the sweat into a cup didn’t get me. The sweat drinking didn’t even get me. What made me look away was the volcano of vomit that followed. Uggggg, it was everywhere!

Action Rating: 4 3D Poops, out of 5.
