Jackass 3.5
was released straight to DVD and I can only feel that so many people have
missed out. The whole concept of Jackass is obviously one random stunt if
stupidity but as usual they have done too much and had to release an extra film
of footage, it has everything from commentary to interviews with the Jackass
crew, behind the scenes footage and stunt after stunt of hilarity.
One thing I
loved about this film was the length of each stunt, nothing lasted very long,
so you get laugh after laugh constantly throughout the entirety of this DVD.
The use of the phantom camera to slow down time was shown in full in this
edition, showing you every little tiny movement of anything in extreme slow
motion, some of the stuff filmed using this piece of kit involved a double
footed drop kick to Bam’s face, Preston Lacy jiggling his fat around and the
ever present penis of Chris Pontius rotating as he windmills in front of the
camera.
The film
only has a few faults, one being there’s not quite enough of the interview segments
throughout, I love hearing what people think about what they are doing, but
there was no intensive interviews just a few questions and points from the cast
scattered throughout.
Overall
anyone who is a fan of Jackass, random you tube clips of people being stupid,
or just wants to laugh at another’s apparent misfortune then Jackass 3.5 is an
ideal purchase for you, it’s just a shame it can’t come to us in the stunning
3D that was present in the cinemas for Jackass 3.
