Critics Consensus: There's a good chance you'll be laughing hysterically at one stunt, but getting grossed out by the next one in this big screen version of the controversial MTV show.

It's not exactly stupid. Cynical might be a better word.
So what's all the fuss about? If people want to staple paper to their inner thighs, let them. The question is whether you're prepared to pay to watch them do it.
There's no denying that it's pretty vicious humour, and pretty puerile too, but like previously successful purveyors of such past-the-U-bend comedy, its fresh-faced enthusiasm makes it invulnerable to... tired accusations.
While there is no scientific proof, chances are good your teenagers will leak brain cells by the thousands while watching Jackass. And you might even want to see it with them.
Jackass: The Movie is a disgusting, repulsive, grotesque spectacle, but it's also hilarious and provocative. God help me, thumbs up.
Maybe the best way to look at Jackass: The Movie is as a piece of conceptual art. How far and low will these guys go? What's the pinnacle of pointlessness?
More idiotic and dangerous than the show. Really.
Superficial shenanigans don't diminish its effect. It's a ridiculously funny barrage of taboo pranks, practical jokes and tests of both social altruism and Bam Margera's parents' patience - most of it failsafed so that the foolishness never subsides.
Trust me, I'm laughing at you, guys, not with you.
The movie is designed to play for one audience and one audience only: existing Jackass fans.
The Jackass boys show little interest in observing anyone else but themselves.
To call it performance art, one would first have to submit to the idea that it is art, which it clearly isn't. (Unrated)
A hysterical and energetic film, but not for everyone as it is quite revolting at times. If your not squeamish and in the mood for comedy you'll love this.

Jackass humor = my kind of humor. I love everything this gang has ever made, even if some gags are flat-out distasteful. This first film isn't as ingeniously funny (or well-planned for that matter) as number two and three, but it's still very entertaining and has some pretty epic moments.
The first Jackass film is one of the craziest comedies that I've seen. The big screen debut of TV's hit show, Jackass brings to the screen the cast of professionals from the hit tv show doing what they do best= stupid stunts. In this film they have more liberties to do the stunts that they couldn't do on the show and it delivers in spades. Right from the opening of rent a car crash derby to it's final stunts, Jackass: The Movie is one funny ride. Fans of the show will be pleased because the boys do even more extreme stunts this time around. Sure this is a stupid film, but it's also mindless fun. There are some unfunny bits too here, Preston Lacy and Wee Man were never funny to me and they always do something that doesn't make me laugh. But the rest of the cast deliver the laughs. Jackass is exactly the type of film you watch with friends and you definitely have a few good laughs as you see these guys attempt the stupidest stuff you've ever seen. It's pretty funny how we see grown men do this. Jackass The Movie will never be considered a classic, but it should be seen as a mindless form of comedy, a film thats very entertaining and a lot of fun. For me this is the funniest one of the three films and theres plenty of humourous bits here to not bw bored out of your skull. This is humour at it's lowest form done by the best, and it's guaranteed to make you laugh or make you smile at very least.
Jackass - The Movie is not so funny like Number Two and 3D.
