Greatness comes in many shapes and sizes... but for this masterpiece it came in four. The Impractical Jokers Movie is the single greatest work of media ever conceived. It has a simplistic plot that carries these magnificent characters to their destinies as the comedic gods we know today. The driving force of this movie is the characters. All of your favorites are here including Joe, Murr, Sal, and Q. You get to see them in school before their greatness, out of school before their greatness, and many seasons into their job before their greatness. Each of them experience unique challenges that unlock a special revelation in their complexly written personalities. Joe begins the narrative as a bad hype man, and ends the narrative the exact same way, except this time he's famous! (Truly the writers of this film have hidden a complex allegory for the society in which we live in and how money and fame inevitability raise others' opinions of you.) Sal begins the narrative as the only member of the jokers that doesn't wish to revisit their terrible past, but Sal becomes a driving force in their pursuit to revisit that mystery when it matters most. (He summons a 2-by-4 and he threatens his friends until they make the right decision.) Q begins the movie with a butter knife, and carries that butter knife with him until the end of the line. (He keeps that symbol of pride and determination through some of the most difficult challenges he has ever faced.) And finally, there's Murr, the epitome of a well-written character. Murr begins this movie surrounded by friends and hair. First goes his hair, but throughout the general run-time of this intense narrative, Murr always has his friends to rely on. But then Murr loses a challenge, they leave him all alone, and it destroys him. Yes, the film is essentially just a string of challenges with the weakest plot ever conceived. But this is all just a courier of the theme: the jokers are better as one. And when they finally realize they're better together, Murr still is left alone on the top of a plane during the end of the film. Truly this is art. My words cannot do this movie justice, you must see it yourself. With its varying settings, complex characters, and interesting world, this film is only held back by a simple plot. And isn't that okay? I for one believe that this is the single greatest work of cinema since toilet paper.

Greatness comes from working hard and achieving something in life. I do not think that there is a person who has achieved greatness without working his hardest. I already know that you are trying to become a better person, but trust me, that is not all. You have to sacrifice a lot of things, your sleep, your pay, everything. You have to go through a lot of turmoil before you can achieve greatness, that is why not a lot of people are successful.
