The project took almost a decade to get into production, and was eventually picked up byRelativity Mediafor $6 million. Filming took place over a period of several years, as casting also proved to be a challenge. Some, includingGeorge Clooney,declined to participate, while others, such asRichard Gere,attempted to get out of the project.

Released on January 25, 2013, after having been originally slated for release on April 13, 2012,[2]Movie 43was panned by critics, although it was a modest commercial success, grossing $32.4 million against a budget of $6 million. Consideredone of the worst films of all time,the film received three awards at the34th Golden Raspberry Awards,includingWorst Picture.[3]

Plot

[edit]

Movie 43is a series of different, interconnected short films and sketches containing different scenes and scenarios about a washed-up producer as he pitches insane story lines featuring some of the biggest stars inHollywood.

The Pitch

[edit]
  • Produced and directed byPeter Farrellyand written by Rocky Russo, Jeremy Sosenko, and Ricky Blitt

The film is composed of multiple comedy shorts presented through an overarching segment titled "The Pitch", in whichCharlie Wessler,a mad screenwriter, is attempting to pitch a script to film executive Griffin Schraeder.

After revealing several of the stories in his script, Wessler becomes agitated when Schraeder dismisses his outrageous ideas, and he pulls a gun on him and forces him to listen to multiple other stories before making Schraeder consult his manager, Bob Mone, to purchase the film.

When they do so, Mone's condescending, humiliating attitude toward Schraeder angers him to the point that, after agreeing to make the film "the biggest film sinceHoward the Duck",he confronts Mone in the parking lot with a gun and tries to make him perform fellatio on the security guard (Wessler had gotten on the lot by doing the same thing) and kill him if he does not make the film.

Wessler tries to calm Schraeder down with more story ideas to no avail, but Mone pulls out a gun and shoots Schraeder to death. As the segment ends, it is revealed that it is being shot by a camera crew as part of the movie, leading into the final segments.

Alternative version (The Thread)

[edit]
  • Directed bySteven Brilland written by Rocky Russo and Jeremy Sosenko

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 mostbanned filmin the world,Movie 43,which will ultimately lead to the destruction of civilization.[4]Calvin Cutler and his friend J. J. make a video in the style ofMTV'sJackassand upload it onYouTubewhere it instantly reaches over 1,000,000 views. This turns out to be anApril Fool's prankfrom Calvin's younger brother Baxter, who cloned YouTube and hyper-inflated the views while working on his science project.

Calvin and J.J. attempt to get revenge by telling Baxter of a film that's so dangerous it will cause the annihilation of the world. The movie is known as Movie 43. While J.J. and Baxter look for Movie 43 on aGooglestand-in, Calvin retrieves Baxter's laptop and loads it withvirusesfrom porn sites, and masturbates to a strip tease video on the porn sites in a bathroom. Baxter finds hundreds of results for Movie 43 on a website referred to by him as a dark corner of theInternet.They find the sketches starting from the 43rd search on the list of results.

As Baxter and J.J. keep watching videos, they are interrupted by Vrankovich and a group of Chinese mobsters wanting to find Movie 43, going so far as to take J.J.'s classmate Stevie Schraeder, film executive Griffin Schraeder's oldest son, hostage. Vrankovich warns them that if they find Movie 43, civilization will be destroyed. They ignore his claims and keep searching, eventually finding the real,Movie 43,which turns out to be from the future, and which shows Baxter as a profane commando, leading a group of recruits to survive after the world has ended.

As Calvin finishes ruining Baxter's laptop, their mother enters, wearing the same shirt and shorts that the woman in the strip tease video wore, causing Calvin to have a mental breakdown, realizing he masturbated to a video of his mother. Afterward, a deadlyearthquakerumbles and mankind is lost. However, a few years later the only survivor, a crippled Calvin, finds Baxter's laptop still working despite the viruses. He watches the last remaining skits on the laptop.

This version of the film was released in the U.S. as part of the Blu-ray Disc ofMovie 43as an unrated alternate cut of the film, and it is the only version of the film streaming on Amazon Prime in the U.S.

Development

[edit]

Wessler first came up with the idea for an outrageous comedy made up of several short films in the early 2000s. "It's likeFunny or Die,only if you could go crazy, "judged Farrelly," because withFunny or Die,there are certain limits. And we just wanted to do that kind of short and go much further than that. "Charlie Wessler affirmed that he" wanted to make aKentucky Fried Moviefor the modern age ".[10]

Wessler then recruited three pairs of directors—Trey ParkerandMatt Stone,Peter and Bobby Farrelly, andDavidandJerry Zucker—to sign on to write and direct one-third of the project each. He then began working out a deal with a studio for the project, but the project did not stick. "They ended up calling me about a month after we started negotiating the deal and said 'we can't do it' because they had political pressure to not make R-rated movies that were marketed to teenagers," claimed Wessler. He then went to multiple other studios, but, according to Wessler, "no one could understand what I was trying to do".[10]

In 2009, Peter Farrelly and producer John Penotti took their pitch—along with about 60 scripts for the vignettes—toRelativity Media.At that meeting, Wessler, Penotti, and Farrelly presented one short that they already had shot, starring Kate Winslet as a woman going on a blind date with a seemingly successful and handsome Hugh Jackman. "They just looked at me and said, 'Go for it,'" Wessler toldThe Hollywood Reporter."It takes a lot of balls to make something that is not conventional." Relativity provided $6 million for the film, but no other studio would sign on. "Other potential backers", Farrelly revealed, "didn't believe it could happen—a movie with Kate Winslet for $6 million?"[10]

The film officially beganprincipal photographyin March 2010, but due to its large cast, producer/director Farrelly toldEntertainment Weeklythat "This movie was made over four years, and they just had to wait for a year or two years for different actors. They would shoot for a week, and shut down for several months. Same thing with the directors. It was the type of movie you could come back to." Shortly before shooting, writers Parker, Stone, and the Zuckers backed out.[11]

The film ended up with thirteen directors and nineteen writers tied to it, each one co-writing and directing different segments of the sixteen different storylines.[12]Farrelly directed the parts of the movie with Halle Berry and Kate Winslet.[10][11][13]

Casting and filming

[edit]

Wessler spent years recruiting actors for the film. Many turned down the project. "Most agents would avoid me because they knew what I wanted to do—what agent wants to book their big client in a no pay, $800-a-day, two-day shoot?" he said. "The truth is, I had a lot of friends who were in this movie. And if they didn't say yes, this movie wouldn't have gotten made." In the end, most of the actors were willing to take part because the film only required a few days of their time and often allowed them to play a character outside of their wheelhouse.[10]

Hugh Jackmanwas the first actor Wessler cast. He met the star at a wedding and then called him sometime later and pitched him the short. Jackman read the script and agreed to be a part of the film. "He called me back I think 24 hours later and said, 'Yeah I wanna do this,' which I think is, quite frankly, incredibly ballsy. Because you could be made a fool of, or you could look silly, and there will be people who say, 'That's crazy; he should never have done it.'"[10]

After talking to the multiple agents ofKate Winslet,she eventually agreed to take part. The Winslet-Jackman sketch was shot shortly after and became the reel to attract other A-list stars.[10]

John Hodgman,who plays oppositeJustin Longin one sketch, signed on with no knowledge of the project. Long, Hodgman's co-star in the long-runningGet a Macseries ofApplecommercials, asked him to do the project, and he then signed on, without still knowing too much. Hodgman said, "I got an e-mail from Justin that said, 'I'm going to be dressing up as Robin again. Do you want to dress up as the Penguin?' And I said yes. Without even realizing cameras would be involved, or that it would be a movie."[10]

James Gunnrevealed during aFacebookQ&A that he was convinced to do the film byElizabeth Banksand to "blame her" for it. He added, "I didn't even get to edit that stupid thing!" He also has never seen the film.[14]

Others were not so affable. In fact, some stars hedged:Richard Gere,a friend of Wessler's, said yes—but also said he would not be available for more than a year. So Wessler waited him out, convinced his sketch was good. Gere eventually called Wessler and told him he was free to shoot, on just a couple of conditions: they had to do it in four days, and they needed to relocate the shoot fromLos AngelestoNew York City.[10]

"They clearly wanted out!" judged Farrelly. "But we wouldn't let them. The strategy was simple: Wait for them. Shoot when they want to shoot. Guilt them to death."[15]Colin Farrellinitially agreed to be in the Butler leprechaun sketch—as Butler's brother, also a leprechaun—but then he backed out andGerard Butlerdid the sketch by himself. Farrelly said that when he approachedGeorge Clooneyabout playing himself in a sketch (the gag was that Clooney is bad at picking up women), Clooney told him "No fucking way."[10]There were two sketches cut from the film that were originally shown during atest screening;one that starredAnton Yelchinas anecrophiliacmortician who worked at a hospital and had sex with the dead female bodies, and another starringJulianne MooreandTony Shalhoubas a married couple being interviewed by adetectiveabout their missing daughter.[16]Producer Penotti said that the sketches would be seen on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of the film,[10]however only the latter was included in the release.[8]

Because the filmmakers worked around the stars' schedules, the filming of the whole movie took several years. While so many A-list actors were on board, most were not completely aware of what other sketches would be included in the film, which features thirteen vignettes tied together by a story of a mad screenwriter (Quaid) pitching ideas to a movie producer (Kinnear). Penotti said many of the actors did not ask many questions about what else was going on in the film. "They were attracted to their script, and as long as that tickled their funnybone, that was enough," he revealed.[10][13]

Promotion

[edit]

The title of the film,Movie 43has no meaning. Farrelly heard his son talking with friends about a film called "Movie 43", but when Farrelly discovered the film did not exist, he cribbed the name.[10]

Relativity did little to promote the film and none of the cast members did any promotion of the film. The film was not screened for critics in advance. "The slapdash title, the lack of promotion and advance screenings, the release date—none of it bodes well," opinedEntertainment Weeklysenior editor Thom Geier. "January is usually where movies go to die," Geier argued. "And to go by the trailer—the only option—the content seems dated." Ared-band trailerwas released on October 3, 2012.[17]Farrelly was optimistic: "Kids, teenagers, 50-somethings who still smoke pot—they're all going to find something here," he asserted.[10]

Reception

[edit]

Critical response

[edit]

Movie 43was panned by critics, with some considering it to beone of the worst films ever made.[18]The film received aweighted averagescore of 18 out of 100 onMetacriticbased on 23 critics, signifying "overwhelming dislike".[19]OnRotten Tomatoes,the film has a 5% positive rating based on 88 reviews, with an average rating of 2.74/10. Audience members gave it a 2.2 out of 5 Rating based on more than 25,000 responses. The site's critics consensus states: "A star-studded turkey,Movie 43is loaded with gleefully offensive and often scatological gags, but it's largely bereft of laughs. "[20]Audiences surveyed byCinemaScoregave the film a D rating.[21]

Brian Gibson (Vue Weekly) describesMovie 43as "An execrable waste cooked up by a hell's kitchen of directors and writers. It's death-of-laughter by committee. Its title? Because it's like one of those many asteroids out there—a dismal chunk of rock hurtling through an empty void, without purpose."[22]IGN'sGregg Katzman gave the film a 1/10, with the main criticisms being its unfunny jokes and the waste of its all-star cast, with the only positive being its sub two hour running time.[23]It would go on to tie withScary Movie 5for IGN's worst movie of 2013.[24] In his guest review forRoger Ebert's website,Richard Roeperof theChicago Sun-Timesoutright panned the film, giving it zero out of four stars, calling it "aggressively tasteless", and going so far as to say "Movie 43is theCitizen Kaneof awful ". He wrote that the film has nothing in common withThe Groove TubeandThe Kentucky Fried Movie,two "very funny and influential" sketch-comedy films. He additionally criticizedMovie 43for what he calls "female humiliation", saying that although the men are "jerks, idiots, dolts and fools", the women have it even worse.[25]Robbie CollinofThe Daily Telegraphgave the film 1/5 stars, describing it as "the work of a confused man thrashing around in an industry he no longer understands".[26]Peter Howell of theToronto Stargave the film zero out of four stars and called it the worst film he had ever seen.[27]Elizabeth Weitzman of theNew YorkDaily Newsgave it a negative review, saying, "As a film critic, I've seen nearly 4,000 movies over the last fifteen years. Right now, I can't think of one worse thanMovie 43."[28]

In one of the few positive reviews, Michael O'Sullivan ofThe Washington Postgave the film three and a half out of four stars, calling it "a near masterpiece of tastelessness".[29]Alonso Duralde ofTheWrapsaid that the film was "gross, juvenile, disgusting, scatological, vile, reprehensible and in the worst possible taste. But heaven help me, I laughed."[30]

Box office

[edit]

Movie 43was predicted to debut to less than $10 million, with the studio expecting $8–9 million.[31]It took in $1,810,561 on its opening Friday, far below expectations.[32]
