[i]The body guard with Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner.[/i]
Yeah, us too, it was awful.
Crash. What a load of poo.
eyes wide shut.

Starship Troopers.
What a big pile of steaming turd.
Wash your mouth out.
Hate walking out of movies (it takes me ages to eat popcorn), but left half a tub with ease half way through The Producers. Not even Uma could keep me in my seat.
Contact, jesus that dragged out.
Funny though some good films posted by some.
I enjoyed 'There Will Be Blood', but 2 guys walked after 10 mins after laughing uproariously at him falling down the mine-shaft....??
Might have been the complaints from the rest of the audience, mind.
The 2 guys had taste that's about the bet bit of the whole film.
got dragged to see mamma mia....jesus wept I'd rather have shaved my eyeballs and then chucked aftershave in 'em than sit through even 10 minutes of that steaming pile 😀
I've walked out of
Battlefield Earth
The Yards - all I remember was Mark Wahlberg and pish
Cloverfield - I lasted as long as I could to see if the nauseous feeling was worth it. It wasn't
I very nearly walked out of 2012, but I really wanted to see if it could out-turd its earlier abominations. It did
Heat. just didn't seem to go anywhere.
Guest House Paradiso, half hour of bottom might be funny but it foesn't work as a film.
Didn't walk out of but fell asleep to the first couple of Batman films.
Didn't walk out because the wife's work hired the cineam and we were sat near her boss but Lord of the Rings bored me. By the end of that, i couldn'y give two sh**s about any chuffing ring.
Traffic, boooring, shoudl have realised it was poo when the cinema was virtually empty!
Adaption, oh god, i think i fell asleep watching this. Tedious.
Didn't leave either of them, even though it really should. Too tight to waste money....

I couldnt sit through any of those films. Never went to the cinema to see them but friends and family have got them on DVD...been bored rigid after 30 mins
The Doors. Self-indulgent ****. 10 of us went to see it, two lasted the full length, and mostly because they were tight northerners. We spent the extra couple of hours in the pub next door.
Lost In Translation - that was a waste of a Sky Box Office £3.50
more recently The Boat That Rocked - mildly amusing I suppose, but again a waste of SBO money.
I tend not to go to the cinema so don't get the option of walking out, but as mentioned above, anything with Nic Cage in is going to be poor.
Mrs_drummer's sister bought us a DVD copy of Mamma Mia. That has to be the worst thing I have ever ever ever seen. I hated Abba beforehand but now, jeez...

Starship Troopers.
What a big pile of steaming turd.[/i]
Yeah, that made me laugh too. As was suggested earlier, people's tastes are clearly so far divided. I though starship troopers was hilarious. Laughed pretty much from start to finish.
The Wicker Man (newer version). Hmm Nick Cage again. The original is a classic. The American Version is complete shite.
Only film I've ever walked out of was Boogie Nights. Not even the abundant naked flesh saved it.
+1 boogie nights (or shall we call it boogie shites?). Although technically, we didn't walk out.
Me and MrsG went with another couple. In the pub afterwards, we were talking about the film.... It transpired that the other couple (Mr & Mrs A) wanted to walk out, but didn't want to spoil the film in-case we were enjoying it. Mr & Mrs G were thinking the same.
Please can I have that 90minutes of my life back? Please?
Again, not walked out, but a few recent ones which I have fallen a sleep in:
- Gamer
- House Bunny (WTF...worst film ever?)
Haven't actually left, but gone to sleep a few times
Missed a good 80% of Gorky Park and about 75% of The Deer Hunter
Never been so bored, total cackfest the pair of em
If I hadn't been stuck in the middle of the row, I'd have left 2012 last night.
What a shockingly bad film!!! It's the only one I've ever thought about actually walking out of.
Obviously it's all totally subjective and I would vehemently disagree with 50% of posters- Baron Munchausen for example; both versions were genious- and side with the other 50%, but one actor has me switching off, leaving or instantly looking for something else to do..... Adam Sandler; how on earth, WTF, what?, how?, why?, how did he even get to be an actor let alone a superstar????!!!
Of course IT IS subjective, This is different from a 'worst films' thread. Its films that for often individual, slight reasons we've been annoyed with enough to walk out.
For instance lots of half decent films have been made from books but invariably those people who read the book despise the results- Trainspotting is good example in my case.
I really should have walked out of "2012" last night
Agree - films are subjective. But Crash, Lost in Translation, and Blue Velvet are objectively ace.
Fabulous Baker Boys however, is a load of toss and I left after about 20 minutes.
jees, 2012 wasn't all that bad, OK the stupid "just made it over a huge gap in a caravan" was annoying to say the least. But the effects were quite something.
Drag me to Hell, thankfully the tickets were freebies, as i would of been wholeheartly pished if i had to pay for it. Horror movie by numbers and not the good sort at that!!!!! Boring and predictable. Also on another slant i have never seen The Shawshank Redemption despite owning a copy, much to the general annoyance of several serious movie geek mates.
I haven't walked out of anything (I don't go to the cinema that often), but like a few others the DVD player's been switched off once or twice:
Mama Mia, saw this at the Student's union with a few friends (it was free entry and there was supposed to be something good afterwards, though it was dull enough that I can't remember what). The only thing that saved my mind was a few pints of Brains from the bar. I had a similar experience with "what happens in Vegas," but the Union redeemed itself with the newer Hulk film straight afterwards.
Life Aquatic, advertised as a comedy, didn't laugh even once. Complete drivel.
Too many romcoms with rubbish/similar plots to name
Broken Flowers is probably the worst. The Fisher King sent me to sleep in 5 minutes and there is something else that i have forgotten.
Oh and Jackie Brown is something I have not got past 20 minutes of on DVD.
I liked 2012 - a bit far fetched but the effects were good and the story line was OK ish.
Nothing I've walked out of - I'll always do some research before shelling out that much. As for renting - I've switched off Botched, I can blame my brother for choosing that. He also rented Role Models. Even worse but we finished that!
Didn't walk out, but I did fall asleep watching The Sheltering Sky. Utter drivel.
Alexander. absolute pish
The only film I've walked out of:
[b]The Boat That Rocked[/b]
Absolutely and totally awful in every single way.
I should have walked out of Quantum of Solace, but, as an act of extreme masochism, stayed.
Another one I wish I would have left but didn't was the steaming pile of shite 300.
What an utter joke. When the welsh hunchback came on screen I knew it was all over 😡
I've never seen "2001 A Space Odyssey" all the way through, always fall asleep. I've tried a few times too.
Went with the other half to watch The Nutcracker (the ballet shiat). She was most upset that I fell asleep within 5 minutes of it - woke me several times before giving up. When I awoke some time later she was also asleep.
Not money well spent, and no culture gain either.
2012 absolute pants
Goldeneye
(With Brosnan the Bond series went from bad to worse and then went downhill from there.)
(Invisible car........WTF?)
Some film called "Maurice" I think. Went with my partner and a load of her mates from uni. Dozed off part way through and apparently at a particularly touching moment let out the biggest snore ever!
Never walked out of anything but I came close to turning something off yesterday but I forced myself to watch it all incase it turned out to be a joke that I didn't quite get.
The film in question was War Inc with John Cusack.
Easily the worst film I've ever seen.
Quite surprised at some of these (Starship Troopers? Come on, that's an okay film)
But I've never walked out on a film.
It would have to be quite startling bad for me to do so.
Having said that, I don't really go to see films unless I think I'll enjoy them in the first place. Are people just randomly wandering into stuff?
(Invisible car........WTF?)

Fell asleep during, and then walked out of:
[*]Elf - utterly utterly utterly awful[/*]
[*]The Fantastic Four[/*]
Fell asleep during:
[*]Twilight (OH asked me to go with her)[/*]
[*]Blair Witch Project[/*]
[*]Blair Witch Project 2 - really dont know why I went again[/*]
[*]Harry Potter - one of them - with dragons, that one[/*]
Fell asleep, nearly died of boredom, felt horribly uncomfortable through various scenes and then and had the barely controllable urge to get up, scream, and run around:
[*]Lord of the Rings - all of them[/*]
Got told off for heckling Winslets full frontal, stopped paying attention 2 mins in anyway, and completely lost track after laughing at the bloke hitting the propellor:
[*]Titanic[/*]
I very nearly walked out of 2012, but I really wanted to see if it could out-turd its earlier abominations. It did
I have a strange fascination to watch this now 🙂
Date Movie. Utter utter garbage. Only film I've walked out of ever, was too painful to watch never mind being just bad.
Late to the party but we walked out of Borat, managed to get caught by the local paper too, who were really keen to speak to someone who didn't like it, even though my wife answered all the questions it was me who looked like Edinburgh's biggest prude in the paper. Anyway, ali G, Borat, Bruno - half an hour is more than enough and eventually it just becomes cruel. I get the point that he's using personal farce to send up large scale cruelty/intollerance etc and i genuinely think he's funny, he just reaches a limit for me and a 2 hour film was way over that limit.
Should have walked out of boxing helena - pure unadulterated crap, and to cap it all 'it was just a dream' -
Walked out of:
Alien Nation
The 2nd Matrix one
Wish I had walked out of:
Mamma Mia
Any of the 3 most recently made Star Wars films they were dire but I hung in there out of sentiment for the originals.
And I too thought Starship Troopers was great, and inventive at the time it was made, although the sequel was lame.
I personally think Exorcist 3 is an excellent film, as is Aliens (although nowhere near as good as Alien).
I have never walked ouf of a film, although was tempted during the ending to I am Legend. I am very selective about what films I go and see though.
