The napping topic got me thinking about movies that I have also walked out of, which happens to be only one, Hollywood Homicide. First off, I friggin love Harrison Ford. Indy, Han, Jack Ryan and half a dozen other characters have lit up the screen for decades. But guess what, he is getting old, and he doesn't have that many more "action flicks" under his belt. I was excited to see that he had a cop movie coming out, but the result was catastrophic. What movies have made you run screaming for the hills?

I can honestly say I have never walked out of a movie...but the one movie I am glad I didn't see in the theater because I would have walked out was The South Park Movie. I think Jakal can back me up here.

I've walked out of My Blue Heaven because I was bored out of my mind. I was with my brother and my dad. We all looked at each other and said, nah. Walked out on He Got Game cuz at the time I felt a religious compulsion to avoid sex on screen, and chasey lain popped up and i walked out. but hey, if it was good i would have stayed regardless, prob. Walked out on O Brother where art thou and chicago, both because certain members of the audience ruined the experience. Still haven't finished chicago. We only got like five minutes into it.

I would have walked out of hellboy if i wasn't in a group.

I'll think of more later.

i understand why comical depictions of satan and hell would make you want to walk out. i felt a little queasy too, i guess. still, i'd walk out of baseketball over southpark (but didn't)

Well...how about you just keep your mouth shut?! Just kidding...I love you. So, I enjoyed Hellboy. I thought it was a fun movie. Jakal and slime felt it necessary to make fun of Hellboy because a character in the movie calls Hellboy "HB". They felt this worthy of refute because Hellboy and "HB" both have two syllables. Well, I watched the movie and Hellboy is called "HB" ONCE! The rest of the time he is called "RED" Which is, in fact, one syllable. So you guys can take a hike with your Hellboy bashing!

The only movie I have ever walked out on is Super Troopers. Yes, I know, many found it funny but i found it stupid.

That's so funny that you mentioned Super Troopers know_it_all... I borrowed that from a friend on a night that I NEEDED a good laugh (having always thought the commercial was hilarious), and it turned out to be the most boring piece of crap that I'd ever seen. I got about 45 minutes of the way through before ejecting the DVD and never finishing it...urgh!

I suppose this is sacreligious to say in a group of film buffs, but the only film I ever walked out on was 2001: A Space Odyssey. That was when they used to have intermissions in the movies, and at the intermission of this one, I walked out with my friend. I was either a teen or tween at the time...it was a re-release. I saw it again when I was in college. I loved the first half of the picture, but I don't think I missed too much walking out of the second half.

I've come very close walking out of other pictures the last few years (the closest being for "The Royal Tenenbaums"), but I hang in there so I can talk knowledgeably about it and trash it on MetaCritic!

I walked out of The 5th Element, but a couple of my friends came out and got me in the lobby before I left the theatre and convinced me to go back in and finish the movie. I should've left, the movie was so lame I can't think of any redeeming qualities. I have much higher standards for films that I see in the theatre, and I usually won't go to anything I am not excited about. Had I seen this film on dvd or on tv, I may not have disliked it so much. I tend to rate movies a lot based on my expectations, if I had waited to hear all the negative press about it and then rented it, I may have enjoyed it on the level of something like say, Anacondas or the equally hilarious Battlefield Earth, or even Super Troopers!

Haunted Mansion,scary movie 3, wanted to leave during the The village so so so so so bad, but stayed because i was to busy munchin on the good ol stale popcorn. VILLAGE BLOWS

"Father of the Bride II"
"Phenomenon"
"Event Horizon"
and
"Michael"
Would've 'walked' out of "Jeepers Creepers", but it was the first part of a double feature at the drive in, and I wanted to see the next movie.

The only movie I ever walked out of was "Three Kings" The movie was just too disturbing for me at the time.

The only dvd I remember not finishing was "Fight Club" A few years later I watched the whole thing.

Yea, A Knight's Tale and The One with Jet Li. Horrible.

I walked out of the last "Exorcist" movie, but enjoyed the Paul Schraeder version (the one the studio canned). But I have to say I thought "South Park" was a brilliant satire and laughed most of the way through.

I don't walk out of films often, but I walked out on was Marguerite Duras' INDIA SONG when it screened at the Museum of Modern Art a number of years ago. Pretentious piece of crap.

I usually don't spend frickin 5.75 on a really bad movie. There's a 1.50 theater in my town with only the second newest movies for that.

If i do for whatever reason go to a bad movie, there are ways to get around it. For "The Benchwarmers," it was me and 2 friends, but we only bought one ticket. hee hee, yeah, the ol' sneak-in.

Back on topic, I really cant think of a single movie I've ever walked out of.

I even sat through "Valentine," all the way to that stupid ending.

already mentioned . . . 'michael'

i can't remember why i decided to see it . . .

here in nyc, with the astronomical ticket prices, you don't spin the wheel and see whatever. in general i detest vanity projects and michael was one of travolta's worst.

Richard Linklater's "Bad News Bears" and "The Cave"

I don't go to the movies much anymore, but I used to and I have never walked out of a movie. Fallen asleep, yes.
