» «Jackass Forever» on Blu-ray and DVD Amazon *
The total escalation
The opening sequence of «Jackass Forever» alone clearly shows that «Jackass» has finally arrived in cinemas. Because after «Jackass 3.0» was able to come up with an almost groundbreaking use of slow motion, the fourth part begins with an action-packed homage to traditional monster cinema.
Here we see a Godzilla-style monster rampaging through a small town. On closer inspection, however, it becomes clear that the monster was not hand-made — it is Chris Pontius’ penis , which was staged here by «Her» creator Spike Jonze as a destructive beast.
In any case, «Jackass Forever» increases the number of hits in terms of painful and hellishly unpleasant stunts in contrast to its predecessors immensely. And penises are not neglected – be careful. In the official FILMSTARTS review , «Jackass Forever» earned a strong 4 out of a possible 5 stars. Editor-in-chief Christoph Petersen describes the film as “ continuous genital fire ” and explains as follows:
«They grab their faces, puke all over them, pour gallons of pig semen over them and shit in their pants — and (almost) always with a bang. At the same time, the spiral of pain continues to increase — from Ehren McGhehey’s genital protection test, which failed four times grandiosely, to a re-enactment of Johnny Knoxville’s legendary collision with an angry bull, which this time ends in multiple fractures and a concussion. «
