Critics Consensus

A star-studded turkey, Movie 43 is loaded with gleefully offensive and often scatological gags, but it's largely bereft of laughs.

A series of unfunny, awkward shorts that are sure to make everyone in the room facepalm at how stupid it is.

Started well with excellent acting from Winslet. Second story of adolescent pain was trying harder but succeeding less. Then the movie was taken over by poo jokes and the whole thing went down the toilet.

I had originally watched this after purchasing on disc based on the cast. I forced myself to sit through it, but when it was over i threw the disc out. How this got past the editing stage to be released is beyond me.

Hilarious comedy with full of unorthodox and abstract jokes. This movie is not for broader audiences though. For me It was a top comedy, but whoever saw it around me were highly critical about it.

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.

Chicago Reader

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.

By the end you can't entirely be sure whether you have watched a film or participated in a eulogy for the careers of its participants.

Midwest Film Journal

There is even money on a man with a gun just outside the frame at any given moment here ... except in "Happy Birthday," where Gerard Butler looks legitimately elated and excited to portray a pair of foul-mouthed, genital-mutilating leprechauns.
