Jackass: Best and Last is in theaters now. It is the fifth and final film in the franchise, directed by Jeff Tremaine. It opened June 26.

The film mixes archive footage with new stunts across 25 years of the crew. Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, and the rest are back. 89 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences gave it an A minus at CinemaScore. The word critics keep using is poignant. Nobody saw that coming.

Bam Margera appears only in archival footage. The end credits are a full 25-year montage. Johnny Knoxville said this is the natural place to end.

Before you go, watch Jackass Forever. Or start at the beginning. Either way, you will be ready.

25 years of grown men hurting themselves for your entertainment. Buy a ticket to the last one.
