Jackass Number Two

Jackass Number Two is a wild compilation of outrageous stunts, pranks, and bizarre skits, essentially devoid of a conventional plot. The film kicks off with an exhilarating chase scene involving the nine cast members as they are pursued by a herd of bulls through a neighborhood. One by one, the cast members fall victim to the stampede, leaving only Johnny Knoxville and Bam Margera in the fray, who are eventually cornered inside a house. As Bam leaps through a window, Johnny halts to deliver his iconic line, > “Hi, I’m Johnny Knoxville, welcome to Jackass!”, only to be pushed through a window by the rushing bulls. Following this thrilling introduction, the title card for “Jackass Number Two” bursts onto the screen.

The film seamlessly transitions into a series of outrageous segments, showcasing a variety of eccentric antics. Among the highlights is a puppet show where Johnny Knoxville uses a snake alongside Chris Pontius’s privates for comedic effect. Another standout scene, titled “The Valentine,” features a construction paper heart adorned with an increasingly smaller note displayed in a hotel hallway, adding an element of absurdity.

The antics continue with “Firehose Rodeo,” where Dave England attempts to ride an uncontrollable fire hose, and “Chubby Chaser India,” showcasing Preston Lacy in a hilarious pursuit of Wee Man amidst local chaos. The film is filled with over-the-top stunts, such as Johnny Knoxville and Ryan Dunn trying to perform tricks on antiquated high-wheeled bicycles, and Bam Margera enduring a wild showdown with a golden dildo rocketed towards him by Chris Pontius.

Other notable segments include an entertaining portrayal by Spike Jonze as “Gloria,” a 90-year-old street prostitute dealing with wardrobe malfunctions, and various absurd challenges like trying to ride a miniature motorbike through a loop in “The Mini-Loop.” The film is packed with wild stunts, including moments where Chris Pontius attempts to fish for sharks using Steve-O as bait, and Bam Margera engaging in a hilarious fiasco with a Velcro suit.

As the film navigates through these unpredictable sequences, it culminates in a spectacular Busby Berkeley-style musical finale, set to the La Cage aux Folles song “The Best Of Times.” Here, the cast sings and dances while enduring a series of chaotic stunts—most notably, where Wee Man and Preston slide onto garbage cans. The charm of the closing scene features Chris Pontius performing daring dances amidst fiery chaos, while Bam and Dunn find themselves humorously caught up in cowboy antics.

The unrated DVD also teases fans with additional segments that offer even more shock and humor, including Bam’s Disclaimer, hilarious encounters with animal traps, and outrageous pranks. Whether it’s Steve-O getting shocked with a device or the crew engaging in a dung-filled contest, Jackass Number Two is a rollercoaster ride of madness that fully encapsulates the bold, comedic, and boundary-pushing spirit of the beloved franchise.
