Release Date: 25 January 2013

Why It’s Bad: Remember Kentucky Fried Movie and Amazon Women On The Moon, two movies that proved you could do a series of interconnected skits and still make a funny movie? The people behind Movie 43 seem to be going for the same thing, but they’ve mistaken mugging and gross outs for jokes.

Recommended only for masochists who want to see talented people fall flat on their faces, Movie 43 casts Hugh Jackman as a blind date whose scrotum is located under his chin, Halle Berry as a practical joker who has plastic surgery to appear oriental and Chloe Moretz as a young girl taunted for having her first period. Are we laughing yet?

What The Critics Said: “Despite the filmmakers’ attempts to scandalize us, the only real shock is that a movie this disastrous ever managed to get made.” (New York Daily News)
