“Class Action Park” is a sharp, funny, and bizarrely responsible documentary about an amusement park in Vernon, New Jersey that inexplicably hurt a lot of people. That recklessness was part of the fun—you could risk whiplash in a tube on the choppy waters of the Colorado River Ride, wade in a large wave pool that has a “death zone,” or commandeer the go-karts from Motor World and reach speeds of 50 miles per hour. The employees seemed more likely to join reckless behavior than stop it, and the rich guy behind it all was fulfilling his dream of creating a small world with no rules.
