This is a film so utterly devoid of laughs that it makes one wonder whether Hollywood stars really are feeling the pinch too.

There is not a single redeeming quality to this absurdly inane film.

| Original Score: F | Apr 17, 2015

Despite all the gross-out humor, the most offensive thing about this is the lazy filmmaking; every shot feels like a first take, and the haphazard editing precludes any comic timing.

It rather boggles the mind how so many micromanaging handlers allowed their A-list talent to participate in a production that looks funded from a frat-house's loose-couch-change collection.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Feb 4, 2013

It is utterly disgusting throughout.

| Original Score: C+ | Feb 4, 2013

As a film critic, I've seen nearly 4,000 movies over the last fifteen years. Right now, I can't think of one worse than Movie 43.

| Feb 4, 2013

A cameo parade of stars, some of whom have no obvious gift for comedy, try their hardest, but the laughs just aren't there.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 29, 2013

I was immediately overcome with a sudden rush of emotion: not amusement, anger or even mild irritation, but a profound and faintly tragic sense of pity.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 29, 2013

This is barely a movie at all, mostly due to its structural similarities to SNL, but also because it acknowledges the fact that its own premises are inherently unfilmable.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 28, 2013

How many directors does it take to screw in a star-studded piece of aggressive stupidity and call it a movie? An even dozen, and there is no punch line.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 28, 2013

The line between gross-out humor that's inspired and the kind that's witless is fine indeed, and "Movie 43" obliterates it with poop and movie stars.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 28, 2013

Just wait until 'Movie 43' hits DVD; Halle Berry's descent into humiliating madness will make for quite the collection of hilarious and mortifying GIFs.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 26, 2013

A total mess but not without its genuinely funny moments, this Relativity release is one to store away in the how-did-this-ever-happen vault.

Full Review | Jan 26, 2013

"Movie 43" is the "Citizen Kane" of awful.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 26, 2013

Deadly dull, unfunny, offensive, and stultifyingly clumsy.

| Jan 25, 2013

Movie 43 is a near masterpiece of tastelessness. The anthology of 12 short, interconnected skits elevates the art form of gross-out comedy to a new height.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 25, 2013

Once you're attuned to the movie's desperation to shock, you begin to have that jaded, ho-hum feeling.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 25, 2013

Just no.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 25, 2013

You won't believe how tiresome bad taste has become.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 25, 2013

Farrelly and his brother are two of my low-comedy heroes, but Movie 43 is amateur hour.
