    Reading the reviews of these idiot critics is hilarious. Here's one of the funnier ones, "The personalities on screen have such limited shticks, such one-dimensional ideas, that they're no fun to hang out with." These "personalities" are actual people who are simply doing crazy stunts. Obviously it's not a movie for everyone but you can't be ignorant or arrogant enough to use the same method of analysis for this type of film as you would for the snore-fests that typically wins Academy Awards. To try and do that just proves that these people shouldn't have a job. Bottom line, my only knock on this movie is that is wasn't more like the show. That actually tried to spin a little bit of a story into the hour and a half and it wasn't necessary. If they would've made it more like the show (like how the Jackass movies are exactly like that show) it would've been better. Other than that, if you like seeing crazy people do crazier stunts and have some good laughs while doing it, you'll enjoy this movie.… Collapse

    The Nitro Crew is absolutely insane and it is so nice to finally see their crazy stunts on the big screen! This is a must see movie. This is Jackass but with jaw dropping action and stunts

    Nitro Circus 3D is a thrilling edge-of-your-seat action packed movie. It is hilarious and full of surprises, a must see! This movie is appropriate for all ages.

    Most entertaining movie I have seen all summer! These guys (and gal) are absolutely fearless. This is a fun movie that everyone can enjoy. It will make you laugh and fear for their lives at the same time!

    It's their hard luck that this movie is being released as the Olympics wind down. The contrast with the beauty and self-discipline seen for the past two weeks doesn't exactly work to the advantage of Nitro Circus.

    Even if you appreciate the sight of grown men acting like idiots, the film's repetitive pacing and self-congratulatory air start to feel exhausting.

    Watching people take their lives into their hands shouldn't be as tedious as Nitro Circus: The Movie 3D, which could be described as "Jackass" with a death wish (or "Wipeout" without the water).
