Nobody likes seeing their movie panned by the critics, especially not Movie 43 director Peter Farrelly. After reading a series of pretty harsh reviews (the film was described as the “Citizen Kane of awful” by film critic Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun Times), Farrelly took to Twitter to vent his frustrations.

"To the critics: Movie 43 is not the end of the world. It's just a $6-million movie where we tried to do something different. Now back off," he tweeted. "To the critics: You always complain that Hollywood never gives you new stuff, and then when you get it, you flip out. Lighten up."
 

Pretty strong words from the man behind comedy hits like Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary. We haven't seen the film ourselves, but our Rory wasn't overly excited about it either. In fact, some critics thought it was so bad that they actually asked if the all-star cast, including Hugh Jackman, Emma Stone, Gerard Butler, Halle Berry, Kate Winslet and Richard Gere, were fooled into joining the film.

Maybe this time the director should just admit defeat.
