An excruciating attempt at comedy, Movie 43 really wants to be ground-breaking and new and just about succeeds in being notably bad. Despite the stellar cast (Greg Kinnear! Seth MacFarlane! Kate Winslet! Hugh Jackman! Why did none of you put a stop to this sooner?!), the vignettes all have a nasty habit of landing flat on their faces without a joke in sight. Somehow, messing up a drama film is always more funny than messing up a comedy. For shame.
