Review

I'll give a cheap half point for originality, if you're willing to call a pair of testicles attached to a man's throat original. Other than that, however, Movie 43 is nothing but an aggressive and disjointed collection of scatology, violence and idiocy, completely soaked in a sexual overtone that lays open the immaturity and disrespect these filmmakers have for their audiences. And when you look at the list of talent involved in this, it makes me sad more than anything else. To think that one of the most impressive cast lists ever was wasted on one of the worst films ever. This is a film made for adults who view sex and relationships the way children would: as something gross and outlandish. Had it not been offensive to say so, I would state that Movie 43 is a film made for retards. But I'm not going to let this piece of crap make me sink to that level. Or did I just? Oh, the occupational injuries...
