Steve-O and the Jackass gang are back, bringing all the chaos we all know and love one more time.
That's right! Jackass 4.5 is now available to stream exclusively on Netflix, and it includes new scenes that were not included in the series' previous film, "Jackass Forever."
"Jackass Forever" can be streamed on Amazon Prime and Paramount Plus if you're curious about it.
Jackass 4.5 - What To Expect
If you've seen "Jackass Forever" already, you've seen a bit of what Jackass 4.5 offers. It's basically a longer version of "Jackass Forever," but it provides new footage from the series' previous film.
Some of the cast teased what fans of the series can expect from their stunts. Ehren McGhehey revealed a scene featured in Jackass 4.5 that did the most long-term damage to his physical being — a scene so good it's as good as the movie, as McGhehey explained.
Dave Englund shared that there is a scene that wasn't in "Jackass Forever" where he almost had his genitalia ripped off but didn't make it in the final cut because there were already too many scenes featuring the male genitalia.
That scene will also be in "Jackass 4.5."

Another scene fans are going to love in "Jackass 4.5" is the extended scene when "Party Boy" Chris Pontius undresses to nothing but his famous thong during the end credits of "Jackass Forever."
According to the Party Boy Himself, that scene was hard to film because the COVID-19 pandemic-induced lockdowns are still in effect, which affected the character's scenes as they need to be done in public, with a lot of people.
"... we did figure out a way to do it, but it's in 4.5," Pontius said.
There is also another scene that fans of the series could be familiar with by now due to it being released as a teaser trailer for the film. This is the scene that showed a never before seen stunt titled the "Swingset Gauntlet," which saw the gang dodging a swingset in inflatable costumes, per Collider.
Is Jackass 4.5 Worth Streaming?
Although the film is only a few or so hours old, critical reception has been average, to say the least. According to user reviews and ratings of the film on IMDb, it garnered a weighted average of 7/10 from 442 reviews.
Some IMDb users say that it had "too much talking and not enough stunts," while another said that the stunts involved the male genitalia too much. Some even said that the film shouldn't have been released as it was too boring. However, other users mentioned that it is just as good as "jackass Forever."
Despite the harsh criticism, show reviewer publication Decider found "Jackass 4.5" worth streaming due to it featuring "the most revolting thing.. ever seen in a movie."
If you want to know what that is, you'll just have to watch it for yourself.
