Peter Farrelly has not taken the poor reviews of his bizarre Movie 43 in the best spirit. Not screened for critics in the UK or Ireland, the picture brought together a baffling array of stars – Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Gerard Butler, many others – for a series of very broad sketches. The film was slammed by those critics lucky enough to see it. “Movie 43 is not the end of the world,” Peter tweeted. “It’s just a $6-million movie where we tried to do something different. Now back off.”

We haven’t seen it. But it sounds great.
