Jackass Number Two could be alternately titled " From Bowties to Bunny Ears: What Will Chris Pontius Be Wearing Next?" Like the first Jackass movie, Johnny, Bam, Chris, Steve-O and the gang are all here. This "sequel" is full of stunts, pranks and one-liners, and contains more defecation, more male nudity, more scream-worthy moments and of course more uncontrollable laughter. The film opens with a rather well directed cinematic piece: the entire Jackass gang running from a stampede of bulls. From there it takes off into the hysterically exhausting world of Jackass. The bulls are actually in quite a few stunts, one of which has "leader" Johnny Knoxville using himself as a red flag, and getting spearheaded by a charging bull. Ah, good times. Some of the stunts include: "Beehive Limo", "Fart Mask", "Red Rocket" and a fake terrorist plot which boasts the improve line, "Where I'm going, I don't need luggage." Bam gets branded, they fish for sharks with Steve-O as bait, Johnny catches Anacondas with his bare hands, the list goes on. The gem in this collection of antics has to be the offensive interactions with the innocent people on the street by Johnny Knoxville and director/actor Spike Jonez, while disguised as a very old man and woman. Celebrity guests partaking in stunts include extreme sports legends Tony Hawk and Mat Hoffman. The movie culminates in a beautifully choreographed, fantastical and dangerous musical number not to be missed. Throughout the movie it is apparent that the Jackass gang is older and a little more worn, especially when Bam pleads, "Please God, don't let there be a "Jackass 3". For fans of the TV series and the films, a trilogy may be just what the doctor ordered. The DVD extras (deleted scenes, unrated material and two pretty funny music videos) are more of the same and worth the watch, though some of it is not for the faint hearted. --Rachel Moss2) Description
Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Steve-O and the entire crew from the popular MTV franchise return in the most insane DVD of the year, jackass number two. Available in both rated and "too hot for theaters" unrated versions, jackass number two pushes the limits with all-new stunts, pants-wetting practical jokes, fun with bears, bees, snakes, bulls, sharks…and other REALLY bad ideas.

1) johnny knoxville almost killed himself! [Rating: 5 out of 5]
There are only a handful of performers who could pull these insane stunts together without jacking up their own lives completely. Johnny's charisma as well as the rest of the gang's fun-loving attitudes kept this movie from never growing dull, even after i thought they wouldn't be able to keep the momentum up after the first movie. i just can't believe that they are so willing to become Darwin Award recipiants. The scene where Johnny was launched by rocket into the lake, and part of the internal rockets damn near killed him; that scene had me awestruck saying to myself "WTF". it didn't stop there with the WTF's, but that was a major one. If you don't know if Jackass is for you then pay extra close attention to the title and think about what number 2 could mean. that's pretty much what you should be expecting here.2) Unrated, but not all that different [Rating: 4 out of 5]
The reason why I buy the unrated versions of the Jackass movies is because I want to laugh at the horribly wrong and depraved things they do that were too sick to be shown in the normal theatrical release. Well, at least in the main feature, I feel they didn't deliver as much as they could have. Though there is a fair amount you can see in the bonus material, it's not that "bad". The only extras scenes they have in the feature is one where Dave has a leach attacked to his testicles and screams like a little girl, (understandably), and the "censored" box is removed from the horse semen scene. Beyond that, nothing else struck me as being new or extra for the uncensored DVD.Beyond that, though, I love this flick. The jokes and gags are great and have a rewatchable quality to them over time. Even the DVD commentary track with the Jackass crew is hysterical, giving an occasional glimpse behind the scenes, (they did a much better job on the track than they did for the first movie). Overall I'm pretty pleased with this buy and can hardly wait for Jackass #3.3) Get yourself a good lawyer [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Jackass II: The MovieJackass II: The Movie is made up even more outrageous dumb, mindless pranks you'd expect of an infantile college fraternity without any adult supervision.The movie including the DVD is not without merit, however. If you still have an annoying neighbor with teenage boys this might make an ideal Christmas present. You'd want to give it anonymously, of course. Sure there are warnings throughout the movie DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME. You and I both know that a teenage boy is going to ignore those and try them anyway. That's where the anonymity comes in handy, Nobody can sue you.Highly recommended for people with annoying teenage boys as neighbors and for any teenage boy you just don't like very much.Gunner February, 20084) EVEN MORE APPROPRIATELY NAMED! TOTAL STUPIDITY BUT, HILARIOUS! [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Sinced this movie is pretty much the same thing as the first only more extreme I'm using the same review for it. I sat down and watched this second installment in the Jackass movie series and found myself saying......what a Jackass again! The name of this film is so appropriate that I could not stop laughing again. It's a one trick pony but, it is extremely funny and disgusting at the same time! The pranks are more extreme this time and they do some truely vile things in this one but.....it's still brainless fun. I found this DVD for under $5.00 and it was worth every penny with all the extras included. I give it 3 1/2 stars for making money out of being a total Jackass!5) More hardcore than the 1st, but not as fun [Rating: 4 out of 5]
After a few years of silence from the Jackass series, the sequel Jackass 2 came out of nowhere surprising everyone. While most of the cast was pursuing other television shows in the meantime, this film is the first we've seen from a few of the cast members since the last movie, or the end of the series. Although the gang has noticably aged here, they prove that they are just as wild as ever. A lot of the content here has made the jump from the goofy fun, to downright homosexual situations that would leave anyone over 13 a little red in the face.If I listed all the things they do in this movie, the review would most likely not be posted. I'll just say that there's a lot of content bordering on homosexuality, beastiality, and even self mutilation in a few cases (A hot iron branding, large fish hook forcibly pushed right through a cheek). There is definietly a higher rate of repulsion than we've ever encountered with the gang before, and it's not easy to laugh at all of it. There are many instances where even cast members themselves openly state that they have no desire to do some of the stunts and pray that there will not be a part 3. Having said that, I will point out that the movie is still hysterical, and that I don't think I've ever heard a movie theatre roaring so loud with laughter in my life. As long as you don't have any serious problems with the things I mentioned, add full frontal male nudity and feces, you will enjoy this film thoroughly. If you never cared for the show, then obviously this would not be for you. Fans will be more than satisfied.
