What movie was so bad you got up and walked out of it?

[madison2000]

Battlefield Earth.

I only wanted to see this movie because John Travolta was in it. It was absolutely terrible.

[AwakeAtLast]

1. I walked out of "Spaceballs"

and I would do it again!

[HEyHEY]

164. Judas!

[muchacho]

2. uh oh

L. Ron is going to whammy your e-meter.

[Bok_Tukalo]

3. "Bolero"

Only movie I ever walked out on.

[redsoxliberal]

4. the wedding planner

ugh.

[Undercover Owl]

25. yeah.

"wedding planner" sucked a big one. I left the sofa.

"How to Lose a Guy In 10 Days" also sucked

[taught_me_patience]

36. totally agree

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days was horrible... Too bad I was stuck on an airplane! :hurts:


taught.

[Dorian Gray]

153. I'll second The Wedding Planner.

It was TERRIBLE! The dialog was so stilted and awkward, the two main characters had NO chemistry whatsoever, and the movie just blew chunks!

[slutticus]

5. Batman. The one with Alicia Silverstone and Robin

Man...that just sucked ass.

[flamingyouth]

37. Me too

And a most appropriate review. :thumbsup:

[njdemocrat106]

83. Well I didn't walk out of it but...

I fell asleep during "Batman Returns" (the second one, I think, with Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman). I didn't even bother to see the following 2 Batman movies.

[Kikosexy2]

6. Although..

I sat thru the whole damn thing, I should have walked instead--BLAIR WITCH PROJECT--what a rip-off!! Talk about a bad camping movie. They had a good idea but just badly made and acted. A lot of people walked away groaning "I want my money back".

[madison2000]

9. that movie gave me a headache and made me nauseous

from watching all that shaky hand-held camera footage. The film had been hyped so much that I kept thinking it was going to be good, but it wasn't.

[Reverend_Smitty]

I've never walked out on a movie...

but I was very close to walking out on this one...I would have but I was with a group and I kept thinking to myself, something has got to happen in this movie...but it never did

[jmm]

19. I wanted to leave when

she was zooming into the marshmallow in the supermarket carriage. The only reason I stayed was because it sucked so bad I had to see them die.

[crispini]

72. Oh, man, that movie scared the crap out of me!

I had nightmares for days.... But I saw it with a group and I noticed that everyone either had your reaction (hated it) or my reaction (terrified). None in the middle. Not sure why?

[Kikosexy2]

128. If this...

scared the hell out of you--WUSS!!! Didn't scare me at all. The Exorcist now that gives me nightmares for weeks.

[XanaDUer]

7. The Manitou.

spelling?

[swimmernsecretsea]

97. Oh dear God in Heaven! Someone remembers that one?

Poor Susan Strasberg! And the story! An ancient Native American spirit is ressurected and about to be born from a tumor on a woman's back, but is deformed when she get x-rays to discover what it is! What the hell! Who Greenlighted this one?

My guilty secret...I paid money to see it, and worse, convinced a friend to come with me, because I READ THE BOOK!!!!! My poor friend Diane sat with me as much as she could take, then begged to get the fuck out of that movie theater. I agreed, but only after watching just a bit more to see if it could get any worse. It did.

...some sins just can't be forgiven...

PS: Got that last line from a movie poster.

[XanaDUer]

138. Lol. Circa 1978. Manhattan.

86th street theater.

I can still hear Tony Curtis say, "In hah NECK?!"

("in her neck?!")

Yup, a classic of awfulness.

[jmm]

8. I forget the name but Sean Connery was the voice of a dragon.

I saw it at a drive in. About 15 minutes into the film we joined the long line of people fleeing it.

[XanaDUer]

23. Dennis Quaid?

"The Last Dragon"?

[ET Awful]

24. That would be Dragonheart

I rented it when it first came out on VHS. I could take it or leave it, I probably wouldn't have walked out of the theater, but I definitely would never have rented it if I'd seen it once already :).

[MisterP]

175. the guy playing the king is the one playing Prof. Lupin in Harry Potter 3

I remember the king's very non-10th-century fillings being visible

[LisaM]

10. I wanted to walk out of "Elizabeth" but I was trapped

by the couple next to me smooching and making out.

[Pale Blue Dot]

20. "Elizabeth"??!! Really?

That's a great movie! :crazy:

[LisaM]

26. Sure, unless you are Catholic, Scottish, or know anything about history

or care about truth. Otherwise, sure, it was great.

[Bouncy Ball]

51. EH?

So what was made up in Elizabeth?

I know they didn't portray Mary or the other Mary (de Guise) very nicely, but what's this about truth and history?

[yardwork]

89. It's hard to know where to begin with the wrong info in Elizabeth

I enjoyed it but I had to get in the right frame of mind first and accept that it was 100% fictional.

For beginners, the ages and names of most of the other historical figures were all wrong. Most of them really existed at one time or another, but not necessarily in Elizabeth's time.

[LisaM]

134. Correct, they had many of the advisors mixed up

to imply that Marie of Guise had an affair with Walsingham was dead wrong. They also purposely blurred the line between Mary, Queen of Scots and her mother and then implied that "Mary" (Mary, Queen of Scots would have been very young at the time) had an affair with a French prince who would have been about 4 at the time. Marie of Guise was also not poisoned, nor did she spend all her time plotting against Elizabeth (she was too busy with the Scottish nobles.) While Mary of England certainly did execute some Protestants, the movie implied that she executed them by the hundreds - the actual total was somewhere under 50 (and I'm not defending it) AND, to top it all off, at the end it stated that "she never saw Robert Dudley again" (after his wife died) but this is so untrue as to be laughable, they continued to meet and communicate for THE REST OF HIS LIFE - until he died - she even kept his last letter with a note "His last letter" and that was YEARS after the movie supposedly ended. And that's probably just the beginning; the movie continues to enrage me.

[Dorian Gray]

154. Well,

Mary, Queen of Scots was actually married to the French King, Francis II. (I think that's the one.) They were betrothed when they were really young, and they grew up together. He died in his teens, I believe.

But, she wasn't the villainess that was portrayed in this film. She spent her whole adult life fighting for her country and royal place in Scotland. When she escaped to England, Elizabeth had her arrested and jailed for the remainder of her life.

As for Elizabeth, it was a good FILM, but the history was off. Even I knew that at the time, and I knew a lot less about her reign than I do now.

It would be interesting to see it again. I don't think it's "walk-out-able," but I understand the frustration that some may have with making Elizabeth the heroine while ignoring all her faults. There were many.

[Skittles]

11. last one was Laws of Attraction

Julianne Moore truly sucks at comedic roles

[Dufaeth]

12. The american Godzilla

Only movie I walked out of. I did when it turned into Jurassic Park towards the end.

[Cornjob]

181. Hated that movie so much that I...

sent an email complaint straight to the executives of Toho.

I stated that Emerich, et. al., destroyed the entire Godzilla concept and that they and SONY should never again be permitted to disgrace the screen with their witless crap. It took SONY several years to get Toho's permission to film a Godzilla movie and they botched it!

[Nitrogenica]

13. Signs

UGH!

[tridim]

14. The Thomas Crowne Affair

Ughhh! That movie sucked ass.

[OrwellwasRight]

77. I thought it was great.

Bought the soundtrack even.

[dolo amber]

15. RoboCop

And I *LOVE* robots! x(

[slutticus]

71. RoboCop III was the worst one IMO

[Pale Blue Dot]

16. I never walk out of movies.

The closest I've ever come was "Young Einstein", starring an Australian named Yahoo Serious who some at the time were claiming would be the "next big thing". There was not one laugh.

[intheflow]

17. Tailor of Panama

Did the movie have a point? I don't know, 'cause it was so bad I had to leave.

[Pale Blue Dot]

55. ARRGGHH! Another great movie!

Pierce Brosnan's best performance, hands down.

[peekaloo]

114. I agree.

Brosnan was excellent. Geoffrey Rush, a good and underrated actor, in another fine performance.

[OrwellwasRight]

78. I should have walked out. It had no point. nt.

[ET Awful]

18. The only movie I ever came close to walking out of was

Return to Paradise. Not because it was a bad movie, but because it was a fairly intense and disturbing movie at parts, and my mind was in a really fucked up state at the time (relationship issues, etc.). The only reason I stayed was because the ex-girlfriend that was the cause of the fucked up state of mind was holding on to my arm and insisting that I stay, and I was still in the "try to salvage this relationship" phase.

So, I've never actually walked out on a movie, the one time I came close wasn't because the movie sucked, but because my life did.

[bigwillq]

21. I never walked out of a movie. Never.

I have turned off movies that I have watched at home, though.

[democrat in Tallahassee]

22. Mission Impossible

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

113. I SHOULD have walked out of that one

When it was shown they made Jim Phelps the villain. Come on! That's like making James T. Kirk sell out to the Klingons!

[Speck Tater]

27. The Long Long Trailer.

No wait. Now that I think about it, my sister and I got in a popcorn fight and our parents hauled us out of the theater because we wouldn't shut up.

The one I voluntarily walked out of was Battlefield Earth. What a stinker! With that budget you'd think they could have afforded three legs for their camera tripods. Those two-legged tripods kept tipping over.

(ED:SP)

[LisaM]

31. Good because I love that movie

though I don't think I was born when it was made.

[Deja Q]

28. The Shadow, Star Trek Nemesis, Star Wars Special Ed ('97)... keep in mind,

I sleep through them and/or make bad wisecracks during ideal moments.

At least someone should make it entertaining for the audience.

(audacious? Youbetcha. And NOBODY clapped more than I during Nemesis when Riker said "The Kirk Manuever" or whatever slappy pap it was... and a few clapped, which was refreshing and surprising.)

[meppie-meppie not]

29. Jackass the Movie nt

[Taxloss]

30. I walked out of "Anaconda".

I can't remember why I went to see it in the first place.

I remeber thinking "if I spend the next two hours doing nothing, it will still be a better use of my life".

[mcscajun]

32. "Mean Streets" and "Rocky Horror Picture Show"

I gave "Mean Streets" all of twenty minutes...then I walked out.

I didn't even get past the first scene of RHPS, 'cause the credits had BORED me to death already! I relented years later on Rocky Horror. I was ready for it and it was SO Funny then.

I've never gone back to "Mean Streets", though.

[Kire]

33. Igby Goes Down and Ernest Goes to Jail

Igby is such a self-absorbed twit, why would I sit for almost 2 hours to watch him?

Edit: Kire Goes Home

[pretzel4gore]

42. i thought 'igby goes down' was great!

very well acted etc....now this 'ernest goes to jail'?....sounds kinda one dimensional... was that one of them 'artsy' european movies, inspired by genet or maybe de sade?

[Kire]

150. I don't like movies about self-absorbed rich people.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=2421885&mesg_id=2425292&page=

[1monster]

34. Missouri Breaks with Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brando...

Actually, I was with a group that included guys who loved the movie, so I didn't walk out even though I wanted to, and wished I had by the end of the movie.

It was the PITS!

[lolly]

80. Geez! Didn't Know Anyone Else Had Heard of that one!

I saw it when I was a teenager in a double feature with a comedy called "Mother, Jugs, and Speed," starring Bill Cosby, Raquel Welch, and Harvey Keitel as ambulance drivers.

Missouri Breaks was pretty awful--I don't remember if it had a plot. If it did, I don't remember what it was. I just remember one of the characters (Nicholson?) put a bug into another character's mouth while he was sleeping. Weird. None of the characters were at all likable--I just wanted them all to go away.

[dback]

35. Only one: Van Damme in "Double Impact"

I actually fell asleep 15 minutes into it, and after another 15 minutes my date woke me up and said "We're out of here."

I should've walked out of "The 'burbs" "Twist" and maybe "Naked Lunch."

[NightTrain]

38. Ishtar (1987)

The low point of Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty's respective careers. :puke:

[Minimus]

120. My one and only walk out too.

My date actually fell asleep and I was not going to be tortured alone, so I nudged him awake and we left.

[progressoid]

129. Yes, ick. But I watched it again on TV last year!!

Just to see if it still sucked.

it did.

[NewJeffCT]

39. Nothing yet

I was tempted with "The Messenger: The story of Joan of Arc"

[StrongbadTehAwesome]

140. me too

didn't walk out, but after that I told my husband (then-boyfriend) that I was picking all the movies we saw in the future. :)

[StaggerLee]

40. First Daughter

Ok I didn't walk out on it because I was watching it at home.

I turned the movie off after about 15 minutes though.

Horrible.

[El Fuego]

41. "Mean Girls"!

The last part was so sappy we couldn't take anymore.

[Endangered Specie]

43. In spite of having watched many a bad movie

(pearl harbor, armageddon to name a few)

I have never walked out... so I can boo at the end ;).

[UdoKier]

44. Free Willy.

So unbelievable stupid, insulting and anti-human.

Blech.

[fujiyama]

45. Never have walked out

but I've been tempted.

I was pretty much falling asleep during that Russel Crowe film Master and Commander. It bored me to death.

Batman and Robin sucked terribly. I was dragged into seeing the second Resident Evil film and God that was terrible...Never saw the first and had no interest after seein the second....
I dozed off a few times but it was so damn loud.

[Dave Reynolds]

46. Attack of the Killer Tomatoes

I hang my head in shame even admitting that I paid to see it..x(

[Burma Jones]

47. Cats and Dogs (2001) - The One about

the war between the two species. Just couldn't stomach it.

[Dastard Stepchild]

48. What's The Worst That Could Happen?

I'll fight the urge to answer the title of that movie with a lame pun. But, this movie was a real stinker, and I had no choice but to run on out of the theater.

[Bouncy Ball]

49. Some cop movie with Jamie Lee Curtis that came out in the

late 80s, I think. Can't remember the name, but it had "blue" in the title. Very bloody and very very bad.

It was a dollar theater, anyway. I left about 30 minutes into it.

[HeyManThatsCool]

53. Blue Steel I think n/t

[DS1]

50. Mystery Men nt

[HeyManThatsCool]

52. The Crying Game

I stayed FOR THE WHOLE FUCKIN MOVIE but I wanted to walk out after the 2nd minute. It SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Also 28 days later. That blew chunks.

Unfortunately when I pay for a movie I feel like I have to sit there and watch it

[Pale Blue Dot]

57. You and I should not go to the movies together.

Of course, that's probably a break for you. :-)

[HeyManThatsCool]

68. LOL! great response

That's the great thing... one mans trash & all that

[htuttle]

54. I wished I had walked out of the remake of Planet of the Apes

As it was, I was left with a hollow feeling when I realized those were two hours I would never get back.

What a desecration that movie was. It is the only movie that has ever compelled me to rush to a movie review site when I got home and post a bad review. I was hoping to spare other fans of the original franchise the pain. Oh, the pain...

[madison2000]

66. That is a really old movie

at that age I didn't know I was allowed to leave a movie that mom gave me money for.

[Bullwinkle925]

56. 2 Come to mind....

"Boxing Helena" and "Kill Bill, Vol. 2" (got my money refunded on that one).

[yardwork]

90. We rented "Boxing Helena" and when we realized what it was about

we didn't watch it.

[newsguyatl]

94. my sister told me that

movie was the most disturbing one she's ever watched.

[Rob H.]

136. "Boxing Helena"--Worst. Movie. Ever. nt

[-..__...]

58. Koyaanisqatsi .

Myself and my GF at the time left after 10 minutes... and the tickets were complementary.

[crispini]

74. Oh, man, another one I loved!

But I'm a huge Phillip Glass fan...

[VOX]

111. "You missed the good part."

Just kidding. :)

I made it through, but I felt like a lab-animal when it was done.

[hangemhigh]

59. Bound for Glory. nt

[TOhioLiberal]

60. I rented...

...'The Day After Tomorrow', I got up and did something else about 1/2 way through. The kids and hubby was so totally engrossed they didn't even notice.

[NNadir]

61. Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

I saw, like maybe the first three minutes.

I have no idea what got into me to buy the ticket in the first place, but I was in my early twenties and incredibly stupid, I guess.

[steely]

62. Gods and Generals - or whatever it was called...

the lengthy civil war flick, long on crap and short on facts

[slutticus]

73. Wasn't that like 4 hours long?

[yardwork]

91. That one had a spinoff video game that was also horrible

My kids showed me an online review:

"God and Generals. Don't play this game."

The review was hilarious.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

147. That was god awful! I started to watch it on tv and shut it off.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

148. The Nightmare Before Christmas.

[Mike Niendorff]

63. A few that come to mind:

The Omega Code
Johnny Mnemonic
Ernest Goes to Camp
Spaced Invaders


MDN

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

64. Transylvania 6-5000

Jeff Goldblum looked absolutely pissed off to even be IN that one.

[BigMcLargehuge]

65. My list is long

Top Gun
Cocktail
The Great Outdoors
Pretty in Pink
Footloose
Uncle Buck

[OrwellwasRight]

79. Sounds like all your walking out was in the 80s . . .

Lose your motivation to get up and leave or did the movies get better?

[yardwork]

92. He can't go to the movies anymore. He has to stay here and babysit us.

[OrwellwasRight]

96. Definitely LOL.

:chuckle:

[BigMcLargehuge]

124. I became much more selective

and alot more broke. Now when I go to see a flick I choose whether I will be seeing it because it's good, or because it will totally suck and I can write about it.

My lifelong hatred of John Hughes and Chris Columbus was sewn in the 80s.

[OrwellwasRight]

176. I am so with you on John Hughes.

I am so sick of people who "love" his movies and call him a genius.

Rather than thinking he portrays the "reality" of you, I think, for the most part, that his movies are shallow, use over-the-top stereotypes, and become dated very quickly.

Breakfast Club is NOT the best film of all time.

I'm not so familiar with Chris Columbus's ouvre. I think the Harry Potter movies were watchable (he made the first two I think), and I never saw that Robin Williams/Robot thing he directed (can't recall the name).

What did he make in the 80s?

[Pale Blue Dot]

81. Proves my point.

John Hugues is the anti-Christ. An insufferable, right-wing, racist prick.

My ex wanted to rent "Ferris Bueller" for my nine-year-old son. Argh. What a piece of crap that movie is.

[ThorsHammer]

67. I fell asleep during WaterWorld, still not sure why I even went

[Missy Vixen]

69. Reservoir Dogs

I was at a pre-release screening. Interestingly enough, about 1/3 of the audience weren't interested in watching it, either.

Quentin Tarantino is NOT all that and a bag of chips, IMHO.

Julie

[crispini]

70. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

Book rocked, movie sucked. I actually didn't walk out, I just fell asleep. First and only time I've fallen asleep in a movie.

[Butterflies]

168. I so agree

I didn't walk out but I couldn't wait for it to end. It was boring.

[rockedthevoteinMA]

185. I fell asleep too in that one!

And I fell asleep during Interview with a Vampire (or whatever it was called)

[PassingFair]

75. Fellini's Casanova

Saw it many years later and didn't HATE it, but still made me very uncomfortable.

[OrwellwasRight]

76. Stakeout AND The Thin Red Line

Stakeout: Uber sexist; just not funny.

The Thin Red Line: Couldn't tell the characters apart (they were all good looking brunettes in army uniforms); repetitive (they kept winning a "climax battle, but instead of the film ending, they would have another effing battle); too long. Tip for Terrence Mallick: Hire lead actors who don't look alike (e.g, Crockett and Tubbs, Beau & Luke Duke, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid).

[mitchum]

82. Porn starring my mom

Hey! She didn't use her real name. How was I to know?

[Cadence]

84. Lucky Numbers and Surviving Christmas

[madinmaryland]

85. death to smoochie. n/t

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

98. Blaaghh! That one TOTALLY sucked ass!

[Guaranteed]

107. Prolly one of the worst I've ever seen.

They're going to play it on Comedy Central, now, of course. :P

[loudestchick]

158. I fuckin' hate that movie!!! My husband picked it up on DVD, now my kids

love it...GRRRRRR!!

[Katidid]

86. "The Passion"

too bloody violent for me - just like Braveheart - but with sub-titles.

[last_texas_dem]

87. Hollow Man

I would have left that one except I was with one of my friends and he had driven us so I had no means of escape.

Cared so little for that one that I couldn't even tell you one thing about the plot if I tried...

[Redleg]

88. "The Lonely Lady."

I was high as a friggin' kite.

[seemunkee]

131. Same here

Not the high part, just the walking out.


Then again....

[newsguyatl]

93. one of the batman movies

i remember leaving the theatre.

[barb162]

95. Pulp Fiction and many others

[merwin]

99. The Talented Mr Ripley. GOD THAT SUCKED!

[Guaranteed]

106. No WAY, man. That movie was BRILLIANT.

Seriously.

[OrwellwasRight]

177. I am with Merwin. It sucked. Terrible ending,

a "hero" you couldn't root for, and way too much gratuitous violence, just to name a few flaws. Also, no effort to make it believable, just there for the shock value.

[Kire]

100. Lantana

It had Anthony Lapaglia jogging around the Sydney suburbs for what seemed like ever. A lot of high society people, too.

Between that and Igby Goes Down, I should know better: that I don't like movies about rich people.

[silverpatronus]

101. lost in translation...

i've no idea why everyone talked it up so much. it was horribly boring.

[mtnsnake]

104. I rented it and I got up and walked out of the house

That movie pissed me off.

[madison2000]

133. ROTFLMAO!

[Carson]

151. I rented "Lost in Translation" recently and it was only because of sheer

will that I made it through to the end. I held up a slim hope that it just *had* to get better. Sadly, I was wrong. Two hours of my life wasted.

[Mojambo]

102. Men in Black and Shrek 2

I walked out of both.

I still can't believe they made a sequel to Men in Black... So crappy!

And don't even get me started on Shrek 2.

[Magrittes Pipe]

103. Jury Duty

While it pains me to admit that I paid for admittance to a Pauly Shore movie in the first place; at least it was in the second-run $1.50 theatre, and it's not like I had anything else to do.

I made it through about 20 minutes -- in a group of six, we had ALL seen enough within 20 minutes to know that we wanted to get the fuck out.

[Guaranteed]

105. Me, Myself and Irene.

Worst Farrelly Brothers movie ever.

[bobbobbins]

135. She'll be eating blubber all right

after i free willy

[Allenberg]

108. Underworld

I went with friends, I left alone.

[B Calm]

109. Charlies Angels

[Donailin]

110. Crying Game

I would probabaly like it now, but at the time I was grossed out, being a new mother and all.

The only movie I ever walked out of.

[jayfish]

112. "Highlander 2"

and "Little Shop Of Horrors".

Jay

[loudestchick]

159. I walked out on Highlander 2, as well.

I had so much fun with the first one that the 2nd was painful!

[Boswells_Johnson]

115. Catwoman

I was not that really interested in it in the first place, but there was a bit of a heatwave that week, and I wanted to get me some air conditioning...anyway, I ended up having to see Catwoman...I initially thought I could passify myself by looking at Halle Berry in a thight leather costume. Sadly, even that was not enough to make this movie worth my effort.

[Catfight]

116. "Sweet November." n/t

[DelawareValleyDem]

117. Burn Hollywood Burn

WHo'd have thought that Eric Idle could be so unfunny

[Joe Power]

118. Forrest Gump

[DelawareValleyDem]

119. I didn't like that one either

And I usually like Bob Zemeckis films. Gump was almost as overrated as Silence of the Lambs

[Joe Power]

121. I liked "Silence" quite a bit

But I found "Gump" to be unwatchable. It seemed very republican to me.

[madison2000]

123. I liked it because of Hanks performance

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

122. "Love Me Deadly" with Lyle "Carol Burnette Show" Waggoner

...a nice family film in which the heroine is a necrophiliac. She kills Waggoner so she can have sex with him.

[greyfox]

125. Van Helsing n/t

[no name no slogan]

126. Robin Hood: Men in Tights-- only movie I ever walked out on

I've seen some pretty awful films in my time. But this one really really sucked. Mel Brooks must have phoned this one in, it was so bad.

Hard to believe the same guy who did "Blazing Saddles" served this steaming turd up, too.

[Love Bug]

127. I should have walked out of "The Postman"

but I was with a group of friends. That's 3 hours I'll never get back.

Interesting how many Kevin Costner movies are on this list...

[progressoid]

130. Give My Regards to Broadstreet

Actually, just dozed off. Even my wife to be who likes Paul was severely dissapointed.

[seemunkee]

132. Chicago

God I hate musicals. Even having Renee Zellweger couldn't redeem it.

[KurtNYC]

137. Out of Africa & Fifth Element

OOA - Seemed intentionally boring.

FE was totally annoying.

[WCGreen]

139. Best Friends.. with Mary Tyler Moore and Ted Danson

Movie I turned off quickly.....

Mulholland Drive....

Man the movie was so fucking disjointed, I couldn't even make it to the lesbian scene.......

[InkAddict]

141. Bad movies!

Barbarella - walked out!
Funeral in Berlin - Saw 3 times - still can't figure out who are the good guys and who are the bad ones - always crossing the border in identical black cars

[Hardrada]

144. Long and Preachy

I could not abide The Greatest Story Ever Told. Also hated some dimwit movie parody of the cavalry in the Old West. It was like "F Troop" but came out before. My friend and I left taking our popcorn out with us. That was when flicks were cheap to see and you did not feel like staying to get your money's worth

[StrongbadTehAwesome]

142. gosh, I need to walk out more often

While reading this thread, I kept thinking, "I remember seeing that! Yeah, it was pretty awful." Cats and Dogs, the Messenger, Underworld, Death to Smoochie, Talented Mr. Ripley, Hollow Man... gosh, that's half a day that I'll never get back! Somehow, I'm always convinced that "this movie has just got to get better."

To add a new one to the list, I would have walked out of "The Messenger" (yeah, it's another Kevin Costner one)...but it's hard to walk while unconscious.

The only movie I ever DID actually walk out of was one that I actually like very, very much: LOTR - Fellowship of the Ring. I walked out because my friends and I had seen it five times since it came out, and went for a sixth time when it hit the dollar theater. Half an hour into it, I realized five times in five months was apparently my limit. I bored out of my skull and knew that there was no way I could sit through another two and a half hours. I'm a LOTR geek, but not quite THAT much of one.

143. sorry

[6000eliot]

145. Cruising

I think I'd stay and watch it today.

[Pushed To The Left]

146. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

My girlfriend at the time and I were the only ones in the theatre, and we weren't there very long! I think we left after about 25 minutes or so.

[Piperay]

149. Ben Hur with Chuck Heston

I was just a kid, my little brother felt ill seeing all the blood and gore during the chariot race. We got up and walked out so he could get some fresh air but he ended up puking in front of all the people waiting in line. :puke: :puke: :puke:

[deltau]

152. Clockwork Orange

Long time ago, my girlfriend got sick at the graphic rape scenes.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

155. It was more of a drive out, but Runaway Bride

we were at the drive in and the double feature was Runaway Bride and some other movie. Runaway Bride was second, and about 1/4 through it, we left. I love Julia Roberts, but that movie SUCKED.

[Nikia]

156. Wanted to walk out of Very Bad Things

My husband did too, but we thought that the other was enjoying the movie so we stayed.

[AVID]

157. Austin Powers II

[gollygee]

160. Robin Hood Men In Tights

my husband and I couldn't sit through the whole thing. We walked out of the theater.

[CanuckAmok]

161. The Doom Generation, and Moulin Rouge

Walking out of Moulin Rouge was quite something, considering we rented it and were watching it at home.

[annonymous]

162. I wanted to walk out of Total Recall

but couldn't because I was on a date and had no way of getting home. I also wanted to walk out of Drop Dead Fred but was with a group of friends and again had no way of getting home.

[madison2000]

163. You should start carrying taxi money

there's nothing worse than being captive to a film you can't stand. Of course you can always go out and chat with the teens at the concession stand!

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

184. Sad thing is, the Philip K. Dick story this was based on is EXCELLENT.

The movie is totally different and misses everything cool in the story.

[Dr Fate]

165. 5th Element, Doc Hollywood, Blow.

n/t

[WritersBlock]

166. Medicine Man

And I really, REALLY like Sean Connery. I simply couldn't put up with Lorraine Bracco's voice, or tone, or inflection, or something - it just irritated the hell out of me every time she opened her mouth. I sat out in the lobby and waited until the movie was over because the people I was with stayed to watch it.

[More Than A Feeling]

167. I wish I had walked out of Gigli

That movie made me want to blind myself.

[Butterflies]

169. "Pitch Black" with Vin Diesel

I rented it last night and fell asleep a half hour into it (so I didn't technically walk out on it.)

Maybe it got better . . . :shrug:

[benburch]

170. Was it the Director's cut?

The Director's cut was a MUCH better film.

[Butterflies]

171. I don't think so

Here's what I saw: shakey filming during the crash, all characters squinting while on the new planet, and constant cursing no matter what was happening (which always annoys me).

I might try watching again before I return it to Blockbuster.

[benburch]

173. See if you can find the director's cut.

Makes much more sense.

[davsand]

172. Annie Hall.

I HATED that movie.

It has taken me a long time to admit this, but I just don't like Woodie Allen. He has odd moments that make me laugh, but most of his stuff just leaves me cold.

My husband tells me my movie taste is in my ass, so feel free to pile on in defense of Woodie...

[SarahB]

174. Candy Man and Intersection

"Candy Man" because it had a scene that alluded to a murdered baby and sorry, I just don't want to see anything to do with that. 'Intersection" because it was just boring and inane.

[benny05]

178. Boris and Natashia

Followed by Meet the Fockers, because the projectionist screwed up and cut off the heads of the actors.

[davis_islander]

179. The Gods Must be Crazy

Supposedly the "funniest movie ever made"? Yikes!

[Emops]

180. "Meet the Parents"

I didn't walk out, because I was with someone, but that movie made me want to sue Ben Stiller, it was so awful. Even thinking about it now makes me mad.

[GalleryGod]

182. Tommy-Anne Margaret in Baked Beans!

:puke:

[catbert836]

183. Anger Management

Some of the sexual references just got riduculous.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

186. ALMOST walked out of Scary Movie 3, but after the first 15 min it got a

bit more tolerable. Wife and I were openly discussing walking out.
