Following irreverently in the style of Jackass this is a feature extension of a famed MTV series in which a London lad and three similar welsh crazies perform madly insane and wackily painful stunts in the name of comedy. Directed by MTV helmer Hickey, the boys: Pritchard, Dainton, Joycey and Pancho take in places around the globe daring each other in dick-lifting, liposuction fat drinking, tongue-stapling and nostril-supergluing stunts which are definitely not for trying at home.
It's all done in the best possible bad taste and is carried off by a darkly-humoured gang constantly out-doing and playing jokes on each other. It's very funny provided you've got a broad sense of humour and are into Knoxville & Co. Knoxville in fact gets a mention and with Jackass 2 on the way, what we really want is a Jackass-Sanchez featured contest for the prize of who's coolest in the stunt pain stakes. On this evidence, my money's definitely on our lads.
