View all categoriesOur take
Johnny Knoxville and friends repeat the formula: genitals in harm's way, animal mess, shopping carts, and pranks that need a hospital. Male nudity and toilet humor are constant, and beer fuels several bits. Language is loud and filthy whenever someone gets hurt. We land at 17 and up because the point is shock and copyable stupidity, not slapstick kids can shrug off
Uplifting themes
Friendship and loyalty show up between painful gags. Messages about safety or respect are not the point
Story (may spoil tone)
Jackass Number Two is a compilation of various stunts, pranks and skits, and essentially has no plot. Chris Pontius, Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Bam Margera, and the whole crew return to the screen to raise the stakes higher than ever before.

The entire movie invites copycats: fireworks, heights, animals, and traffic pranks. Parents should treat this as anti-example material

Talk after watching
- Friends laugh while someone gets injured on purpose. Why do audiences enjoy pain when it is staged?
- Several stunts could maim someone if tried at home. Where should comedy draw the line on imitable risk?
