Movie 43
Directed by Steven Brill, Elizabeth Banks, Steve Carr
A series of interconnected short films are the backdrop for a maniac screenwriter who pitches insane storylines featuring some of Hollywood's biggest and brightest. In some countries, like the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, the structure differs. Instead of a pitch, the films are connected by a group of three teenagers searching for the most banned film in the world, Movie 43, which will ultimately lead to the… From TMDB

60 of 108 · most liked firstWorst movie: Movie 43. Felt like I had a fever watching that. Worst movie-going experience: Hot Fuzz. Nobody else in the theater was into it, and being the only one laughing in a crowd of thirty is awful.

positive · AI labelView post →My #LetterboxdFriday #Lastfourwatched for this week is as follows. A solid noir, with a great turn by a young Steve McQueen, Clerks III which affected me more than I expected from Smith for, a ludicrous film in Movie 43, & Scott Glenn going to 11 and out crashing John Glover in the last film entry.

neutral · AI labelView post →Worst movie I saw in theaters was "Movie 43", the thankfully forgotten "comedy" anthology. Never have I seen so many big names waste their time and mine on something so aggressively unpleasant and unfunny.
negative · AI labelView post →I hope this helps enough people to understand how duplicitous the right is. I mean, when more left-leaning people do this you end up with like Movie 43 where Hugh Jackman has testicles on his chin and Kate Winslet tries to ignore that fact.

negative · AI labelView post →Movie 43. How so many people can work on a film and yet almost none of it come out funny is beyond me.
negative · AI labelView post →You know how Movie 43 had a TOOOON of big name AND more niche actors, not to mention a totally bananas and honestly borderline incoherent plot? Southland Tales is exactly that if it all worked perfectly and ended up as a hilarious, poignant, 1-of-a-kind work of art. And I might like Digger better.

She's done a whole load of quality films - Eastern Promises, The Impossible, Birdman - and the total turkey that is Movie 43 😀(she was in good company, at least).

An utter piece of dog shit a stain on everyone involved that they all probably hope you forgot. A film I've literally never seen a single person talk positively about but also has almost never been mentioned.

neutral · AI labelView post →That's the problem: there are some instances when making films where actors can't get out of their contracts. Look at Movie 43, where a whole bunch of actors tried to leave the project with only a select few, including George Clooney, succeeding at exiting the project. Everyone else had to stay.

It was funny. Some really good, gross sketches and the lesser ones were pretty quick.
positive · AI labelView post →… Yup! Even Movie 43 is a Film…a complete dumpster fire but still a film. I bet Uwe Boll would never use AI…except is a (bad) villain in a film.
