In this comedic documentary, Johnny Knoxville heads a crew of stuntmen, skateboarders and all-around lunatics as they prank, embarrass and torture each other in the name of fun. The antics range from childlike -- the boys don panda suits for a romp through Tokyo -- to grotesque and life-threatening. A golf cart demolition derby turns downright dangerous. Live gators nearly chomp maniac Steve-O. Filmmaker Spike Jonze and Knoxville, in heavy makeup, test the public's patience for the elderly.

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.

I can accept that many find this entertaining, however, I'm just not one of them.

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.

I appreciate the punk approach and there are a few legitimately hilarious moments, but in the end it’s just a bunch of white guys punching each other in the balls.

Depending on what you find funny, some of it is hilarious, some is not funny at all.
