Clocking in at a svelte 84 minutes, it still feels about an hour too long.
EW

A movie thats about reckless freedom and counter culture communities needs to be less by the numbers than Action Point.
Rogerebert
3.0
As with Knoxvilles surprisingly likable Bad Grandpa, this movie is appealing and often funny, in a reckless, naughty way.

A woefully unfunny comedy thats clearly been reverse engineered to showcase ostensibly amusing (but not really) displays of bodily harm.

Watching it is like travelling through a wormhole to a slightly crummier version of 2004.

Like a line at Disneyland, it feels like a long wait to not get very far.
1.5
A lazy summer romp in the Meatballs tradition with a handful of Jackass style stunts as the scantiest of hooks.
The New York Times
2.6
As a film, its as shabby as its rides, content to be distantly diverting rather than striking or funny or confrontational.

Much like the rides that inspired it, Action Point is a fast and funny thrill ride without brakes.

There may be a statement here about how we take ourselves too seriously, but it wasnt interesting enough to really register.

Rogers Movie Nation
2.0
Its Knoxville, the 1970s, and an amusement park with no rules and no brakes. And yet, Action Point is boring, witless, and repetitive.

...a well worn premise thats employed to mostly watchable yet hopelessly erratic effect by filmmaker Tim Kirkby...

Watch fail compilation videos on YouTube... Itll make you laugh more than this movie can.

Its quickly clear, however, that Knoxville (now aged 47) actually built this movie for nostalgic middle aged men like himself.

The legend of Action Park demands a real movie, not this piece of garbage.

The problem with Action Point is its just not that funny. (Full Content Review for Parents Violence, Profanity, Nudity, etc. also Available)

Action Point may not be much of a movie but Knoxvilles flair for violent slapstick ensures that its tempo, at least, never flags.

That brings us to Action Point, a film in which the late forties Knoxville doesnt really act and doesnt quite engage in his trademark stunts.

Knoxville definitely falls flat, and not in the manner weve come to expect.
