What was the last film you walked out of, and why?

[neonwilderness]

If I have to pay through the nose to go in, I'm damm well going to get my moneys worth.

That's the only reason I didn't walk out of Beowulf. Dodgy CGI, the story was wrong (probably didn't help that I've read the original) and, weirdly, slightly gay

 

[Yuwipi Woman]

Sex, Lies and Videotape.

I've seen car accidents so horrific that there were body parts strewn along the road and brains spattered against the front of a truck. I've cradled injured animals in my arms leaving a lapful of blood and drool behind. But the fake blood against the pure white walls was more than I could take.

Miami Vice. Nonsensical plot, inaudible soundtrack, pretentious directing. Left after an hour.

But mostly I just drift off to sleep, and I've a long history of it.

Back in the eighties I dozed through an adaptation of EM Forster's Maurice and I'm still doing it these days. I only remember the first ten minutes of that George Clooney movie, 'Good Night and Good Luck' and I think I may have missed a bit of 'Syriana'. Sorry George.

I've never walked out. In fact I even see most pirate DVDs through to the end. One major exception being the piece of crap that was King fucking Arthur (aka "How to completely demystify a myth and make it into a sub-LOTR load of wank)

 

[chemn]

Bruce Almighty - had a bus to catch

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

I fell asleep in Pulp Fiction and Amelie.

 

[Artie Fufkin]

should have walked out of 'The Beach' but instead legged it before the 'aftershow' Q&A with Danny Boyle began. utter rubbish

I doubt i'd ever bother to leave a cinema because of a poor film, but then i'm quite picky and only go to the cinema if i'm sure i really want to see a film, so usually they're pretty good.
That or they're less good, but i already knew that and i was only even going to see monsters trashing a city / Asteroids colliding with the earth / a 60 year old boxer making an implausable comeback..

One exception though, was Blair Witch Project, which i think is actually a pretty good film, but i'd had a few drinks, and the wobbly camera work made me feel positively sick.

 

[gnoriac]

An Adam Sandler film - I think it was called The Waterboy. Need I say more

That was truly awful. Think it probably appeals to US audiences for some strange reason, though.

 

[no-no]

Never walked out but I don't go to the cinema much. Have deleted many a download though. Eternal sunshine of a spotless mind was a recent stop and delete. Just couldn't get on with winslets irritating voice.

 

[Mrs Miggins]

The only film I've ever walked out of was some shite called "Warlock" that was out in the late 80s. I only left though because my friend insisted we go after someone got their finger chopped off in like the first 15 minutes and she said she felt sick the pathetic cow. I was fucking furious

 

[janeb]

Only ever walked out of one film in my life, Robin Hood:Men in Tights - just wasn't funny at all and then it annoyed me for some reason

 

[rekil]

Gigi.

Why? Because of Chevalier and his creepy nonce anthem. Shoulda been offed by the resistance.

I wanted to walk out of that but was with friends. It's the worst film I've ever seen in a cinema. Fucking awful.
