Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe movie was filmed over a span of four years. Production took so long because filming had to be done around the actors' busy schedules. The segment with Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman was the first to be filmed, and producer Charles B. Wessler used it to secure the financing for the rest of the movie. He called in a lot of favors to get as many high-profile actors as possible for the other short films, most of them willing to work for a few days on something unconventional. However, almost none of the actors knew completely what the other segments were about, or how the full movie would be. When it came out, none of the major actors wanted to promote it.
- GaffesIn the second segment, the guy is pouring coffee into a cup being held, after the scene change, the cup is on the coffee table.
- Citations
Nathan: [segment "Middleschool Date"] Hello, 9-1-1? Yeah, my friend is bleeding out of her vagina!
Dad (segment "Middleschool Date"): Nathan, Nathan, listen.
Nathan: Why are you laughing at me?
- Générique farfeluThe "Beezel" segment runs in between the segment credits and the rest of the credits.
- Autres versionsThe wraparound involving the segments being movie pitches was replaced in the UK Alternate Cut Version, released on the UK Blu-Ray, with an alternate wraparound about two teenagers and an 11-year-old trying to find the most banned movie in the world.

Movie 43 (2013)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
The trailer to this thing promises that once you've seen it you'll never forget it and that's certainly true. In case you haven't heard, MOVIE 43 is a bunch of small skits with A-list talent that tries to shock and gross you out. This includes a story about a man with testicles on his neck, a mom and dad who make out with their son, a dirty game of truth or dare and countless more idiotic ones. There's no doubt that this film is in very bad taste but it tells you that before you buy your ticket. I know many absolutely hate this movie but I must admit that it made me laugh quite a bit. As with most movies that tell separate stories, this here is incredibly uneven and a lot of this is due to different directors doing stories but it also happens because the stories themselves are quite different in terms of how good they actually are. There are some (the girl's period) that just flame out before they get started but there are others that are just simply funny because you can't believe they went there. Plus, you get Hugh Jackman and Kate Winslet kicking things off in a story you just wouldn't expect to see them doing. That there is rather funny. You can check out the cast listing to see how many big names they were able to get for this thing and it's rather incredible considering what the film is. Still, there's no way around the fact that only about 50% of the jokes actually work, which is why I can't give the film a higher rating. With that said, I think if you like really dark comedy that crosses the lines of taste then you're at least going to laugh some here. The film certainly isn't perfect but I think it offers enough to make it worth viewing.
