Steve-O: Gnarly is a personality-driven biographical comedy centered around the subject's personal history and stunt-based exploits.

The narrative reinforces traditional masculine stereotypes and Western individualism, focusing on shock-value entertainment and the subject's specific social circle. Ultimately, the film serves as a niche documentary celebrating a singular, high-adrenaline lifestyle without broadening its perspective to include diverse backgrounds or systemic issues.
