Jackass 2: “Jackass” is one of those guilty pleasures in life, because frankly there is nothing funnier on the planet than a guy getting hit in the nuts in new and unexpected ways. I thought for sure that Johnny Knoxville had abandoned his “Jackass” roots to be taken seriously (as seriously as someone who made a name for himself getting fruit thrown at him by jai alai players) as an actor. The usual gang of idiots is back, including Bam Margera, Ryan Dunn, Wee Man, Chris Pontius, and Steve-O, et al. And this time around, we get such memorable skits as “Fart Helmet”, “Human Fishing Lure”, “Fire Hose Rodeo”, as well as various items strapped to rocket boosters, impromptu bullfighting, and at least one member of the cast drinking horse semen. There some laugh-out loud funny moments (for some reason, most of them involving Wee Man; maybe I just enjoy midgets getting the hell kicked out of them). I can’t begin to describe in detail some of the stuff that happens, but it is a mightily entertaining waste of 90 minutes. But if you don't like poop, puke, or gratuitous male nudity (of not particularly attractive men) then you may...want to watch anything else. Woodchuck sez, “Check it out.”
