Action Point

Deshawn Chico “D.C.” Carver, portrayed by Johnny Knoxville, is the eccentric proprietor of Action Point, a raucous and perilous amusement park filled with reckless rides. Just when D.C.’s estranged teenage daughter, Boogie, played by Eleanor Worthington-Cox and Susan Yeagley as the adult version, arrives for a visit, a massive corporate theme park opens in the vicinity, threatening the future of Action Point. To save both his cherished park and his fragile relationship with Boogie, D.C. and his devoted team at Action Point resolve to take drastic measures.

In the wild mishap that is Action Point, Ziffel, played by Johnny Pemberton, serves as the chief engineer, while Stiv, acted by Conner McVicker, manages security. Four Finger Annie, brought to life by Brigette Lundy-Paine, oversees the rides, while finance is handled by Rodney, played by Eric Manaka. Customer complaints fall into the hands of Pete, portrayed by Joshua Hoover, and despite being unofficially on payroll, Killer, acted by Matt Schulze, is just as integral to the park’s family vibe. Uncle Benny, played by Chris Pontius, oversees the thrilling water activities down the calico river.

As attendance plummets at Action Point, D.C. realizes that the competition he has been dreading is now a reality. With the local lawyer Knoblach, embodied by Dan Bakkedahl, aware of D.C.’s $100,000 mortgage on the park, the stakes are higher than ever. Running out of funds, the Action Point team embarks on a nighttime raid to scavenge supplies from the rival amusement park. To drum up visitor interest, D.C. decides to remove speed limits and brakes from the rides, inviting a thrilling risk.

Amidst the chaos, Boogie visits her father. Living with her mother in the city, their estranged relationship makes her arrival even more significant. She suggests that they create a stir by staging a protest aimed at closing down Action Point. With everyone on board, this bold strategy pays off and draws crowds back to the park. However, they soon face a new challenge with the children left at the kids’ center. Boogie proposes a brilliant idea to set up a petting zoo, prompting the staff to capture animals from the wild to populate it.

Meanwhile, Uncle Benny starts a romance with Mia, played by Camilla Wolfson, a reporter from channel 7 news. Just as things begin to look up, the authorities shut down Action Point for hosting a zoo within the amusement park. In a desperate bid to reopen, D.C. concocts a plan to lure a bear to visit Action Point. When the park’s doors finally swing open again, Knoblach uses various tactics to put the squeeze on D.C., including calling in his loan with a mere ten days to pay back the debt.

D.C., determined to save Action Point, enlists Mia to film a promotional commercial aimed at attracting out-of-town guests. This risky venture proves successful, leading to long lines of eager visitors. In a shocking twist, Knoblach’s son is sent down a ride, intentionally getting injured to fabricate a lawsuit against D.C. Devastated, D.C. neglects a promise to take Boogie to a concert, causing her to flee in disappointment. He realizes that he must confront his past, confessing to Boogie how Action Point became his family after losing hers.

On the following day, D.C. hands over ownership of Action Point to Knoblach, but in an act of rebellion, opens the gates for everyone just as the legal transfer takes place. Chaos ensues as the crowd overruns the park, leading to its destruction. Ultimately, D.C. embarks on a road trip with Boogie, hoping to restore their bond and find solace after the tumultuous events.
