If there's one thing I've learnt from Resident Evil 4, Avatar and now Jackass 3D is that movies shot in 3D look much more impressive than those converted to 3D. No matter how complex the moving image, every pixel of it's digitally projected being is clearly and precisely situated in three dimensions. But it's not just the 3D. It's the combination of 3D AND ultra-slow motion photography. The results are frequently stunning; seeing the ripple effect of a boxing glove in a fat dude's face or the impact of a donkey's hoof in the family jewels. These are spectacular visual images...not to mention utterly hilarious.
As for the third Jackass without the 3D...it all depends on what you think of Jackass. If you like a bunch of immature American adults performing clearly dangerous stunts and pranks then you're in luck. If you like watching people inflict great pain on themselves, and each other, in the name of original entertainment, then you'll love it. And if you think poo, sick, urine and farting is funny (although admittedly juvenile and gut-churning) then Jackass is the comedy for you.
A non stop laughter-fest from start to finish, it's at it's most gut-busting the more frightened and hurting the charming band of charismatic pranksters are. They also leave one of the most spectacular and disgusting gags for last. Those with a weak stomach should look away...
