The men of the Jackass team have proven time and again that the word can be associated with successful people, as their productions continue to bring in the big bucks. The Jackass TV series, starring Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Steve-O, Ryan Dunn, Preston Lacy and Christ Pontius, has been shocking, appalling, and entertaining audiences for years with their crazy stunts and indestructible behavior. This is not the first Jackass movie to be released, but it is the first that offers 3D viewing, for an even more personal experience. The Jackass 3D DVD will be released on March 8th, 2011, available at DVD retailers nationwide. The premise of the film is similar to all past Jackass productions, in that it is one attempt after another to live up to the title. Jackass 3D features a lot of scenes where a cast member is performing a stunt that requires enduring some sort of pain or torture. Often times they will abuse their bodies in some creative way, laughing the whole way through. In addition to the normal antics and exploits, Jackass 3D features a variety of clips to mix up the vibe of the film. Those viewers with weaker stomachs may enjoy the candid camera, blooperesque shorts that are dispersed through the film. There are also the usual pranks and gags played on cast members. The 3D graphics in Jackass 3D are inconsistent. While some portions of the film were shot with 3D specific film, other portions were converted into 3D later. The difference is noticeable; so much so that most of the time you would rather it were a 2D picture. There are a few moments, however, where the positive impact of the third dimension is undeniable, forcing the audience into an even more up close and personal viewing of what goes on in front of the Jackass cameras. It is hard to review a movie such as Jackass 3D at this stage. The truth is, if you haven't heard of the Jackass franchise yet, it's probably not your thing. Those who have been loyal followers of this crazy gang of tricksters are well aware of what they can offer, and what they can expect from a 3D version of typical production. One great thing about Jackass, though, is that you can jump in anytime because there's no real plot. Loyal fans, however, will argue that an understanding of the cast brings a heightened viewing experience.
