Does this include Batman Forever? U.S. Marshals? Volcano? Men in Black II? 
Oh, yeah. I just don’t get the love for that movie. Like watching grass grow… in Russian. Never saw the Clooney remake because I was so miserably, miserably bored by the original.
I never have walked out of a movie, but I wish I would have walked out of “Escape from LA”. I liked “Escape from New York” well enough and was glad to see a sequel. Well, I liked the idea of a sequel. Actually watching it on the other hand…
Movies I walked out on:
Light at the Edge of the World: Some potboiler about islanders being threatened by invading pirate natives, I think. I was a little girl at the time, and when the pirates jammed spears into the island captain’s throat, I began to beg my dad to take me out of there, which he did.
The Awakening: Something about a mummified Egyptian queen coming to life. Reeeeaalllly boring, even for a mummy movie. I was with a friend and this was playing with something else that we actually wanted to see, so we went into the lobby and played video games until the movie we wanted came on. That movie must’ve been boring too, because I can’t remember which one it was.
Where the Buffalo Roam: Bill Murray as Hunter S. Thompson. I thought it would be a comedy. It wasn’t. Dull.
Movies I wished I walked out on:
I Spit on Your Grave: Absolutely sick and disgusting movie as you might surmise from the title. After the fourth violent rape, I stood up and announced my departure to my friends. They told me the movie would get better later. Stupidly, I sat back down.
Just about every stupid slasher flick of the late 70’s, early 80’s: I had friends who loved this shit. I liked the classic ones: Halloween, early Freddie Kruger etc. a few others that were a little imaginative. But most of it was so predictable it was ridiculous; suspense buildup to fake scare to character’s relief to real killer jumping out of other closet to dead character to rinse to repeat again and again. Damn is that boring after awhile.
I’ve never walked out of a movie, but I did recently see inception and I could have easily walked out without looking back.
Nearly 2 1/2 hours of uninteresting and incomprehensible plot that tries to pass itself off as deep, complex, and meaningful. I saw it with my brother. If I had realizd that he was thinking the same thing, we probably would have walked out. All I could think during the whole thing was “please end, please end, please end”.
Pineapple Express. I chose it based purely on the rating on IMDB. Since then I have learned that you can get a break down of the ratings by age of the reviewer, so I will not make this mistake again
I will amend my statement–Tommy Lee Jones’ performances are always quality, at least to me. I shouldn’t have been saying that the movies always were.
I have never walked out on a film, but the two that were a total waste of time were *The Bridges of Madison County *and *Escape from New York.

I’ve never walked out on a movie, I have not yet encountered a movie that I’ve seen in the theater that really deserved it. Typically, I can even enjoy a bad movie for its badness. I did fall asleep in the middle of watching Forver Young though, so that has to count for something.
I knew someone once who walked out of Lifeforce. Apparently even naked Matilda May wasn’t enough to save it for him.
Sleepless in Seattle. Meg Ryan stalks Tom Hanks. Aside from everything else the movie was horribly mean to the all the minor characters. Everyone Hanks dates after his sainted wife dies is supposed to be a horribly irritating person. But he’s really supposed to fall for the long distance stalker who doesn’t even have the guts to introduce herself to him.
Ew. The only good part for me? I know my future husband was going to be my husband when he watched it and hated it as much as I did.
Short Circuit 2. My friend dragged me to it and we were 2 of 6 people in the theater. I fell asleep about 10 mins in and we left sometime during the movie. I am not sure when 'cause I have no idea what happened in it.
I went to see As Good As It Gets because of the advice of a coworker: “Best movie evar.”
No it’s not. Not even close.
It wasn’t horrible but I never took his advice again.
Apocalypto.
Blind Date. It was the birth of my enduring hatred of Bruce Willis.
If DVDs count, 500 Days of Summer couldn’t be ejected fast enough.
Pulp Fiction – I’ve since seen it in bits and pieces, but honestly, I don’t ever need to see that much violence and “ironic” use of the word nigger at all. I’ve since avoided the entirety of the Tarantino library.
I’ve only walked out on three movies.
Henry and June (left at intermission)
Supergirl
Boogie Nights
I don’t have a problem with sex in movies. I have a problem with boredom.
I forgot about my worst movie day ever. My mom asked if I wanted to go watch Garfield with her and mom brothers. I was 20 I think. It was in the middle of the day and the AC was out. I fell asleep. When I got home, a group of friends asked if I wanted to go watch Dumb and Dumberer. Sure, why not? Now that was a wasted day.
The Grudge 3
If you can’t tell what’s going to happen in that movie ten minutes before it occurs, you probably put your shoes and socks on in that order.
I’ve never walked out of a movie. I once fell asleep during a midnight showing of “Eyes Without A Face”, though. And I should have walked out during a showing of David Cronenberg’s “Crash” – not because I hated the movie, but because the sound was screwed up.
I walked out of Nick Nolte’s Affliction and got my money back.
I wanted to walk out of Dan In Real Life and Dinner For Schmucks which both had Steve Carrell in them- who I loved in Date Night and of course The Jon Stewart Show, Anchorman and The Office.
There was another movie I wanted to walk out of with Sean Penn and Robin Wright. The title escapes me now.
