Based on 7 critic reviews provided by

63	Slant Magazine Nick Schager While the Nitro Circus's many achievements are impressive, they pale in comparison to those of Knoxville and company's.
60	The Hollywood Reporter John DeFore Falling somewhere between the X Games and Jackass on the Knievel Scale of Senseless Self-Endangerment, the crew known as Nitro Circus offers more physical and technical prowess than Johnny Knoxville's crew without stooping to anything so disciplined it might accidentally be called a sport.
50	The New York Times Neil Genzlinger Only a couple of times do the stunts have that extra ingredient - wit - that makes this kind of thing amusing to watch.
50	Los Angeles Times Strictly for fans only.
40	Variety 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).
40	New York Daily News Elizabeth Weitzman 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.
25	New York Post 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.
