I think it should be illegal in all countries to watch and rate comedies if you have no sense of humor or if you watch the trailer and don't like it. A review here said: "I love immature comedy, but this takes it too far". What are youI think it should be illegal in all countries to watch and rate comedies if you have no sense of humor or if you watch the trailer and don't like it. A review here said: "I love immature comedy, but this takes it too far". What are you talking about, immature comedy has no boundaries. If you get easily offended, don't watch comedies! In fact, don't even leave your house, because you might overhear a swear word outside!

The trailer shows exactly what you should expect, except it had to be a bit censored obviously. So if you don't like it, don't watch it and don't spam all review sites with how bad it is. I feel sorry for you guys, I really do. Can't even begin to image how sad your lives are if you get so angry over a movie.

The story is great for it's purpose. You can't tie unrelated situations with huge movie stars in a better way than this.

You would assume that a person of average intellect can decide what would be enjoyable for him and what wouldn't. Apparently not.… Expand

Perfect for those that just want to relax and watch silly bathroom humor. It's not for everyone, but people that can laugh at these situations will have a good time. People complain for the sake of complaining... and this is one movie that is not suppose to be serious... it's to make people laugh. Job well done.… Expand

Is Movie 43 that bad?

Director Peter Farrelly (who produced the film and directed a segment), who has made funny comedies but decides to waste his talent I don't know how these people can be proud of their work. Positives: the film is funny but 'it's so bad that it's so good' all of these failed sketches (that are mean't for Saturday night live) are really funny and absurd I laugh throughout the film. But don't see this film! it is an atrocity towards cinema. But as a result is funny. Grade C-… Expand

Hilarious throughout. Absolutely brilliant stuff from director Bob Odenkirk. Would highly recommend this film to anyone and everyone. Devastated that it wasn't nominated for an Oscar.

To start: the idea itself is great; having different directors creating short "scenes" with the most famous actors/actress's in it. Now, the movie doesn't has the tight structure most Hollywood movie have, but that is just wat makes it so great! It's original!
And that's exactly how Farrelly, the mind behind the movie, defends his work:
"You always complain that Hollywood never gives you new stuff, and then when you get it, you flip out.'
And he's right! Movie 43 is something new.
And movies are here for entertainment, aren't they? Well, movie 43 sure made me laugh!
I think its one of the funniest and most original movies recently made, go watch it!… Expand

Insanely funny parody movie. If you're one of the ever increasing number of Americans who are appalled or offended by everything - you'll hate it most likely. If you can pull the stick out your ass and drop the pretense - you'll love it.

There's no way this film is as bad as 'Jack and Jill' or 'Biodome.' The question of every comedy is not whether or not it's high brow - it's whether people laugh. I saw this film in a small art/independent theatre and guess what - people laughed. Intelligent people may be embarrassed that they laughed, but they did.… Expand

I am more than a little ashamed to say that I found this hilarious. Watching these talented, big-named actors star in some of the weirdest, immature, and outrageous skits makes it even more enjoyable. It's gross-out humor at its finest, and if you've got a vulgar and immature sense of humor than you will love this. It's not smart, it's not appropriate, but it is very funny. Maybe I'm just immature and rude but this movie made me laugh-out-loud numerous times. So in my book it's a winner.… Expand

A group of short stories thrown together with a list of our favourite actors playing the roles was a rather interesting concept; and it worked well in some of the skits and not so well in others. I personally found Halle Berry's the best, Gerard Butler's the worst. Overall it's funny but its obvious why it didn't please everyone.… Expand

The plot of the movie is painful, but the comedy and the cast are spectacular. The bad thing about the movie is that it is very short but it makes you spend a very good time. Movie recommended for adolescents.

I'm all for "everyone has the right to their own opinion", but I do think people have been very unfair to this movie. It's actually a very funny watch, featuring very risqué performances from A-list actors and even Oscar-winners. Halle Berry is without a doubt the most shocking (and equally hilarious) cast member as she truly shines in her 'Truth or Dare' segment with Stephen Merchant. Emma Stone, Kate Winslet, Naomi Watts, Gerard Butler and Elizabeth Banks give incredibly funny performances, Butler in particular had me crying. The comedy is silly, but I've seen much, much worse. Movie 43 is silly within reason, it's not slapstick, it's just a funny and I wish people hadn't so quick to call it the worst movie ever made.… Expand

Hugh Jackman sporting a pair of testicles is not what's funny about this film. What's funny is Kate Winslet's endless series of reactions, one moment ready to gag, in the next ready to curl up and hide from embarrassment.

This film is theHugh Jackman sporting a pair of testicles is not what's funny about this film. What's funny is Kate Winslet's endless series of reactions, one moment ready to gag, in the next ready to curl up and hide from embarrassment.

This film is the parody of all parodies. It ridicules everything from the Hollywood system to corporate America to what idiots human beings are and what we'll do for love, not to mention greed, vis-a-vis leprechauns.

But it's hardly a surprise that people who would delight in a 97 minute long fart joke (Swiss Army Man), or mindless comic book action (Wick, Bourne, etc) would condemn a parody of the central pillars of their world (sex, greed, etc).

It's just a little surprising that they would admit it publicly.

I'd normally give this film a competent 7, but it's taken such a beating by idiots and other species of twits that I rate it an 8 to position myself squarely against the jackassery of this execrable human race (as Twain himself might have said).… Expand
