Raunchy for sure

by jenndouglass

It was funny and completely outrageous! It was all shorts, so if something wasn't good, or the joke got old it moved on pretty quickly. It was kinda fun seeing some of these stars being so silly.

Movie 43?

by

The title was the best part of the movie!!!!!! Nuff said. I walked away from it saying WTF and had to go home and watch another movie just to get it out of my head. Going to see this movie is like playing Russian Roulette with all 6 chambers loaded, there is no way you can come out of it with your mind intact.

Worst Movie I've Seen In Years

by

I did get a few chuckles during this movie. That's the best thing I can say about this film. I suspect it would have been far funnier if I were 13 again, but I'm not, and it isn't. Its a series of "shorts" that include diarrhea, incest, a girls first period, and assorted other equally "hilarious" topics. To be as fair as possible, it may have been an attempt to poke fun at, oh, something, but it fails more completely than anything I've seen since Borat. Don't wast your time or money.

where is the funny?

by

I laughed...wait chuckled at best maybe twice. I normally love stupid humor, but this is just a horrible mistake. I would like to slap everyone involved with the production of this movie. I feel sorry for all who wasted their time/money. I'm even more sorry for the people foolish enough to believe they enjoyed it.

Wait for Redbox

by

I love crude humor but this just really wasnt that funny. I waited so long to see this movie....couldnt wait....what a let down. The funniest parts were from the trailer. Save your money and just watch the Movie 43 trailer on YouTube.

Wait for it to go to Netflix

by echelon_24

Even though I did have a couple of good laughs this movie was amazingly stupid. It was a bunch of random crap slammed together. I think the movie actually made me a little dumb.

Stupid movie, but extremely funny during some sections.

by

This movie is not appropriate for teenagers on the border of going to a rated R movie. If there is a better movie showing, then go to that one!

Colossal Waste of Time. Bought script from nearest Sixth-grader?

by meg7nines

We wasted two good movie tickets on sitting through this "movie"?!?

Pro's:
-short
-LOVE the new recliners at AMC 8 Courthouse (they're perfect for sleeping through bad movies like this one.)
-All-star cast (but did not use their many talents for this movie.)

Con's:
-Basically this collection of shorts simply recycles Junior-High jokes (from the 90s.)
-The script has no plot, lousy setting, and I'm pretty sure that theaters in NY probably burned it as Theatrical-Treason.

Blah!!!

***If there were a movie for which one would demand a refund, this is it!

Gross Humor welcome

by

I knew it was going to be a goofy movie based on the lines in the trailer. Trust me, I didn't go into this movie looking for Oscar Gold. I went there to laugh at a movie with crazy lines, quips, and oddball antics that made me cry with laughter. If some people are too up tight to get the joke, then lighten the hell up.

mostly annoying, somewhat disturbing, definetely NOT FUNNY

by yak

probably the worst movie I have ever seen. I was constatnly wishing that the current skit ends hoping that the next one would be more interesting ... in vain. they try to be funny by being raw and politically incorrect. it didn't work for me. I will for ever picture Hugh Jackman with balls hanging from his face. complete waste of time and money.

Beautiful actors doing outrageous, grotesque, and hillarious things

by ballrumbarbi

Although the reviews were overwhelmingly bad, a group of us went to see it anyway and had a great time! All of us laughed like maniacs and enjoyed every minute. Sometimes you just need to wallow in the gutter, and this movie provides such an opportunity. We drank some wine during the movie (highly reccomended) and let the laughter rip! The less you know about the movie before you see it, the better as the shock value is priceless.

Ummm really? AKWARD

by mmandpopcorn

To quote Lenka's " The Show " lyrics, " I want my money back, I want my money back"', Their are movies that become funny in their overkill of exaggerated use of being, gross, , offbeat , quirky, corny, but

"MOVIE 43 " At. Best... leaves. U At, FOR Real? This is ridiculous! DID I really pay to see this? Wow!
The story lines had potential, ( Think, really good SNL skits in a movie format) but somehow got lost...by almost over trying! It has the bling of a star studded cast, without any sparkle! The cast almost felt as they were scared of the awkwardness of the script, not committing to the overzealous format (outside Ana Faris who has perfected this genre of film).
If u need a filler outside outside current sad award honored productions ( aka Les Mis, The Impossible) to neutralize the tears,
This may be the solution , or a great start for your New Years Resolution to exercise towards the concession stand!

Unparalleled Artistry

by joshuapeters8

One of the first comedies of 2013 turns out to be a rare masterpiece. The film Movie 43 is a saturated volume of social commentary that pushes philosophical boundaries and sheds light on the more complex aspects of American culture. The film provides heart-pounding intensity thanks to the unsurpassed ensemble cast. In the segment ?Truth or Dare?, Stephen Merchant and Halle Berry redefine romance in a way that will be mimicked and remembered for generations. Chris Pratt and Anna Faris give us an exposé on the many ways of expressing love in the segment ?The Proposition?. Yet even aside from what are sure to be Oscar worthy performances by Hugh Jackman and Richard Gere, so much of the life-changing force comes from Peter Farrelly?s direction of ?The Pitch?, ?The Catch?, and ?Truth or Dare?. I must also give special attention to the directing finesse of Jonathan van Tulleken in ?Machine Kids? which was obvious yet gentle symbolism for the futility of anger.

Tried Waay Too Hard and Missed the Mark....BADLY

by

So I was stupid excited to see this movie after seeing the previews and reading the cast list. Apparently they showed most of the rare funny bits in the preview. Basically it was a hodgepodge of famous people trying waaaay too hard to be funny with material that was (and this is being generous) mildly humorous.

I will admit that there were a couple of parts that had me laughing, but for the most part the movie was terrible. The worst part of the movie is the "storyline" that connects the different shorts. If anyone has ever seen "Dirty Movie" with Christopher Meloni, then you'd have an idea of how Movie 43 is setup. The only difference is that Dirty Movie was funny and I enjoyed it, whereas Movie 43 made me wish I was pissed when I went to go see it. I definitely had a drink directly after seeing it....and not just a beer. UGH. If you really want to satisfy your curiosity, wait for Netflix/Redbox. Not worth a trip to the cinema or the price of even a senior matinee ticket.
