Action Point

Action Point is a 2018 American slapstick comedy film directed by Tim Kirkby and starring Johnny Knoxville and Chris Pontius, both of whom had worked together on Jackass.

As with Bad Grandpa, a previous film by Knoxville, Action Point features traditional Jackass-style stunts connected by a fictional narrative.

He then decides to remove all the safety measures from the rides in an attempt to make the park stand out, causing several people – including himself – to be seriously injured.

Boogie also confesses to park lifeguard Benny that the true purpose of her visit is to get D.C. to sign papers that would allow her mother's boyfriend to become her legal guardian.

At Boogie's advice, D.C opens up a section for kids, but it is poorly designed, causing her to inform legal authorities who then shut the park down.

The next day, as Boogie prepares to leave, D.C. proposes that the two of them instead take a road trip and make a stop in Austin to attend the concert.

It ended up debuting to $2.3 million and finishing ninth, the worst opening of Knoxville's career and 23rd lowest-ever for a wide release.
