Have you ever walked out on a movie? If so, which ones?


I normally don't, because previews and word of mouth gives me a pretty good idea whether I'll enjoy something or not.

But I did walk out on something I was watching with my dad once, it was so terrible we left that movie and snuck into Starship Troopers. I can't remember it but based on the box office results for when Starship Troopers was in theaters I think it was Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.

The only movie I've ever walked out of was Alexander.

And I went to see Gigli on premiere night.

Anything with Adam Sandler in it.

12/2/2009 12:16:09 PM

Now that you mention it, I don't think I ever have.

But when I worked at a movie theater we used to have people walk out all the damn time and demand refunds because they didn't like the movie. We always just offered them passes to see another movie, but I always wanted to talk shit to them. "We don't make the fucking movies, we just show them."

Yeah I didn't see this in theaters but I did stop watching it when I netflixed it. Or maybe I got the extended edition and just didn't bother to put the 2nd disc in when the first one ended.

The acting and the camera work in that movie were atrocious. Val Kilmer was the only one with a decent performance and he was dead in like 15 minutes. I'm even a big fan of ancient warfare and couldn't watch it.

i almost walked out of paranormal activity but not because of the movie, becasue the theater was filled with talkers/laughers

12/2/2009 12:26:00 PM

Being Human with Robin Williams. It was playing at a $1 theatre and I asked for my money back.

12/2/2009 12:26:42 PM

Exit to Eden


my dad failed to mention it was full of nudity and I was young.. so me and her went to see Little Giants instead

12/2/2009 12:27:16 PM

never.

but I never go to movies that I don't really really want to see, and even if they end up being bad, they've never been so bad that i'd leave.

12/2/2009 12:28:09 PM

half a dozen or so

When I saw Zohan, about 2/3 way thru the movie, this guy walked down the aisle toward the screen and yelled "Fuck you adam sandler !" then left

the rest of the crowd clapped and like 8 people followed him

same here

and there's also that hope that it might get better

but I have fallen asleep during movies I didn't like: Meet Joe Black, Hot Rod, and Anchorman

12/2/2009 12:29:44 PM

I only leave comedies, because they have to be funny throughout to be good

Other movies can suck most of the way, but a good ending can totally redeem them, so I give them the benefit of the doubt

12/2/2009 12:31:37 PM

No. Closest during The Blair Witch Project. There were some angry people during that one, including myself.

Some dude ran out of Paranormal Activity. I thought it was because he was pissed but after walking out of the cinema I overheard his friends saying that he was waiting in the car cause he was so scared. wtf it really wasn't that scary.

12/2/2009 12:36:07 PM

I think the only movie i've walked out on was Pushing Tin with Billy Bob Thornton.

i must have had low tolerance to stupidity that day, because i found the movie insufferable.

had i saw this in a theatre, it would have been the second movie i walked out on

12/2/2009 12:38:59 PM

I don't think I've walked out of a movie...came close once or twice. I usually just start talking shit about it.

My family rented Vertical Limit (I think, or something very similar) and we turned it off because it was horrendous.

12/2/2009 12:54:05 PM

i think it was called Be Cool or something like that. it was ridiculously bad.

Alexander was great, i dont know why people hate it so much

i walked out on A Beautiful Mind, one of the worst movies ive ever seen

12/2/2009 1:28:42 PM

Gothika. I was like, "WTF, Halle Berry and Robert Downey, Jr. starred in a movie about kid sex?!? Come on! Kid sex!?!?"

One of the James Bond movies. I mighta been under the influence. I just remember getting this suffocating feeling of dread that the theme music and credits at the start of the film would never end. They must have gone on for like fifteen minutes, just that same song over and over again while silhouettes of naked ladies swirled around the screen...it was terrifying.

12/2/2009 1:29:36 PM

I don't think I ever have, but my friends walked out of Barbershop 2, and I would've followed suit had I gone with them.

12/2/2009 1:31:32 PM

Came very close to busting out of Transformers 2.

It was painful. I had a headache for almost two days at the close of that classic.

12/2/2009 1:32:39 PM

Never walked out. But I did fall asleep during Mystery Men.

12/2/2009 1:35:22 PM

lafta may be one of the best trolls on this site or he is incomprehensibly stupid.

12/2/2009 1:35:28 PM

Never have...but I REALLY wanted to walk out on Alexander

1st, Angelina Jolie was atrocious...2nd, Collin Farrel was atrocious...3rd, Angelina Jolie's accent was worse than nails on a chalkboard...4th, I expected much better from Oliver Stone

the ONLY redeeming moment was Rosario Dawson's tits



oh, and I fell asleep during Matrix Reloaded

[Edited on December 2, 2009 at 1:41 PM. Reason : ]

12/2/2009 1:40:11 PM

im not trolling, if you understand what oliver stone was trying to do you will appreciate alexander for what it is
on the other hand a beautiful mind was a waste of 2 hours
you find me one person who has purchased that on dvd, everyone just says its great cause russle crowe was good in it, otherwise teh story was garbage



by the way i liked alexander not for the acting or the accents, but for its story telling and the way it took you into the many worlds that alexander conquered. it was the best history movie ever

[Edited on December 2, 2009 at 1:43 PM. Reason : .]

12/2/2009 1:41:46 PM

then I guess I don't understand what he was trying to do, but perhaps it was hard to figure that out when you're distracted by the crap that Jolie and Farrel were doing on screen

12/2/2009 1:48:54 PM

the prom movie

12/2/2009 1:51:20 PM

really wanted to at Couple's Retreat and to some extent Quantam of Solace

that movie let me down about 10% as much as State does

that's a lot

12/2/2009 1:52:27 PM

RoboCop 3

that shit sucked dick

12/2/2009 1:53:54 PM

I never have. I don't really see the point. The money is lost and it's not as though I'd be doing something remarkably more productive with my time. Plus, I've got popcorn and the theater has free refills.
