Very Cool!!!
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
View MoreAll of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
View MoreOne of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
View MoreBam Margera of the Jackass fame is back with his own reality show, and not only is it not as funny as Jackass, but it's also amazingly stupider! This has to be one of the dumbest shows ever conceived. Sure there are worse reality shows but none are as mean spirited or as dumb.Bam Margera has made it big, and his parents decided to piggy bank off of his fame. Bam and his parents, his uncle, his crew of idiotic friends all live together, and while Bam and his buddies are off breaking things and getting into mischief, generally his parents are at home being stupid. When Bam's parents aren't at home being lazy, they're being tortured by Bam, especially his father. To add to the humor, we are treated to his fat uncle Don Vitto who is constantly out of it, and never paying attention.This show really is like a toned down version of Jackass...toned down in that there aren't dangerous/painful stunts, instead Bam and his buddies just go break stuff, and do lame stunts, and meanwhile loud music plays to make it all the more awesome. This is not funny in the least. I can't imagine a dumber show than this because there is not an ounce of intelligence found here.If you are a big fan of Bam Margera, and want to see one of the many follow up/cash-in sequels to the Jackass series.My rating: * out of ****. 30 mins. TV14
View MoreI have not watched every jackass episode. It was mildly entertaining if nothing else was going. But after watching Jackass #2 i was fond of Bam and Dunn. They had a nice attitude in the movie jackass so i figured i'd tune in on viva la Bam. Boy was i mistaken. Seriously, you could pair a bunch of 2'graders, provide them with the same budget and i bet they could knock off something more creative on the screen. I mean, C'Mon MTV!! At 23 where most people are tuned in you give us this rubbish.Everything seems so forced. You don't know the characters because there's no attitude at all. You can't appreciate Bam or Dunn, or anyone for that matter. If there would just be a tiny tiny doze of thought. Anything we won't forget as soon as next shot goes on.They finally manage to create a good shot and you like whats going on. You sit there, just waiting for their reaction, and then some jerk closes the scenes with two lame sentences and bang. Was that the close for that shot or what, please?. If i had been there i would freak out and laugh. Do some insane stuff and have my adrenaline pumping but these guys... Just scripted stupid reactions.Yes they get a few chuckles of the audience by cheap gross jokes, or gigantic jokes which in my opinion are such a waste of cash. Many many normal humans which was not taken under the Jackass wing could in a heartbeat write a far funnier script. Or impress with visual camera work. Even spontaneous wannabe cool guys without a script would pull of a better job. MTV could in a whim bring more soothing material on the screen. You just need to fire the writer of this stupid show.Some scenes actually require a bit of courage and therefore 2 stars.
View MoreBam Margera is so cool i watch his show every time it comes on MTV. Bam's crew is awesome too & Bam' parents Phil and April wow i feel sorry for them cause they have to put up with them everyday but i still love this show. Don Vito is the worst person in the show cause he gets on my nerves to much and all the that bam see is so cool. I don't know why anyone would turn down this show its so cool. i also think that if Bam were to go on the comp. and choose an e-mail address from all the sites about him and if he chose one and u got picked he would find out where you live and let you hang out with for a whole day or even be on his show. I wish he would do that one day and i got picked for it. well i still love the show viva la bam and i also love Bam & Rabb.
View MoreThis is the kind of show for viewers who find fart jokes too difficult. Bam was the dumbest portion of the original Jackass. Bam is not hot. He's a belligerent, slap-happy moron. To find someone near as stupid you'd have to choose from the three idiot sons on Growing up Gotti. To listen to his moronic giggling when something goes off or doesn't go off, you know you're looking at the missing link. Set-up and timing are foreign concepts to him. He has the brain of a lizard. If you think wall-to-wall physical violence without any setup or meaning is funny. If you still eat your boogers, you're the right viewer for this show.Miserable...
