She’s So Lovely with John Travolta, Sean Penn, and Robin Wright. Not only was it the worst movie I have ever seen, but its also the only one I’ve ever walked out on.
Jeremy…
Nobody ever calls me after they’ve done something smart.
The worst movie I’ve ever seen has to be “Idle Hands.” I was with a friend and she wanted to leave, but then I decided I wanted to leave too. The story was just dumb, and there was too much pointless gore. The burrito oozing out of the guys neck is really what finally did it.
The most recent movie that I almost walked out on was “The Blair Witch Project.” I didn’t walk out, but I slept through parts of it. I don’t know how people can say that movie is a masterpiece. If me and my friends went out into the woods camping for three days and taped everything we did, I’m sure it would be a hell of a lot more interesting to watch later.
Every guy I know would shoot me for saying this, but Resevoir Dogs. Horrid, horrid movie! My friend and I did stay through the whole thing, thinking it had to get better. Never did. I left feeling ill.
Having learned my lesson from that, I did walk out of Mr. Death. Ugh.
Just call me a brain dead earthworm. I laugh my ass off everytime I watch it, which is often since I bought the video. It’s just mindless, disgusting entertainment, that’s all. Nothing to understand.
Shame on the person who listed Pulp Fiction!!! That rates as one of my top 5 movies. I bought this video also.
I didn’t walk out on that piece of crap Blair Witch Project, but I should have. Had I been the one to fork over the $$$ I would have asked for a refund.
Pardon me while I burst into flames.

feh. JVTV is my favorite movie of all time, and I’m also rather fond of The Burbs
as for movies I disliked: I didn’t walk out of it (only b/c I didn’t have anything better to do) but rather quickly I decided that Romeo Must Die was a waste of money.

I couldn’t walk out, 'cause I watched at a friend’s house. But I thought Titanic was way long and way stupid. The effects were great, and the performances and stuff. I just couldn’t imagine a bunch of hot-to-trot researchers sitting around listening to some strange old lady’s tale of woe for hours on end. And then after all that, she dumps the rock back in the water! Think of your grandkids, lady, HELL-O! Give me a break, she’s been hauling that rock around all this time? There was other stuff too, but I’ve forgotten. It’s been a while since I saw it.
I wish they had maybe just stuck to the basic story of the last night of the ship.

To this day I have not been able to watch the entire movie “Star Trek: The Motion Picture.” I’ve considered buying it as a sleep aid because it never fails to put me to sleep. (I’ve managed to stay awake through the others).
Romie and Michelle’s High School Reunion may be the worst movie I’ve watched all the way through.

You guys have named a few movies that I loved! Oh, well. To each their own.
First of all, we never walk out of a theatre, and rarelt stop a video. We enjoy watching horrible movies. Even if it’s bad, but not laughable, we can’t look away from a train wreck.
We should have walked out on “Devil’s Own” and “Anaconda,” as well as a film called “The Trigger Effect.” All boring and ridiculous.
We should have stopped the tape on “Godzilla” and “North.” I knew they’d both be bad, but geez…
With “Godzilla,” I kept watching in hope that the Plot Fairy would arrive. I kept thinking “It can’t possibly get worse.” But it did. “North” made me want to kill someone. I can’t even talk about it. I causes much rage in me.
I never hate myself in the morning. I sleep till noon.

This was called something like Crappendorf’s Tribe, but not exactly that.
Ahem. Why, oh, why, can’t anyone spell this correctly?
Obviously you are getting a lot of varied answers to this question. I’m with voguevixen… some of you are ripping some of my faves. I guess there’s just no accounting for taste. The only movie I walked out of was Destiny Turns on the Radio. I think we lasted about 45 minutes. We were suckered in because Tarantino was involved, and we like him a lot. Unfortunately, everything about this movie really sucked – writing, acting, cinematography… just everything.
I know many people like this movie, but I don’t care: Heat sucked like a Hoover upright. I paid one dollar to see it, and I felt ripped off. I’ve never walked out of a movie, but Heat was closest, inasmuch as I was literally moaning in pain by the time the movie ended. Sample lament: (scene changes to some random location having nothing to do with any sort of plot) “Where are we? And why should I care?”
Your Friends and Neighbors, I think was the title, with Ben Stiller and Catherine Keener and Natassja Kinski. However, this was a masterpiece compared to the next film we saw…
Happiness. I was in physical pain, I hated it so much.
About this time we decided to stop going to the movies with our artsy friends.
Fargo. Most over-rated piece of crap ever put on celluloid.
The Avengers: Easily the worst movie I’ve seen in the past few years. Watched it on video with my girlfriend and left her in hysterics when I saw Sean Connery in the bear suit and shouted out in a falsetto voice: “It’s Snuggles the fabric softener bear!!”
Little Buddha: The only movie in the past ten years which caused all 10 of us watching to say “Huh?!” at the end. Just mind-numbingly bad all the way through; one reason why Keanu Reeves Haters exist.
You guys are dissing some really great flicks. Btw, while it is by no means a good movie, my husband and I love Baseketball too. It’s just so dump and cheaply funny.
Anyway, I walked out of Teem Wolf and went directly to the hospital. I’ve still never seen the end and have no desire to, and if I hadn’t been doubled over in pain from appendicitis I’d have probably walked out anyway.
I should have walked out of Wild Orchid or whatever it was that came out the same time The Cook, the Theif, His Wife and her Lover was out. Man that was like 9 1/2 weeks redone in a tropical setting. It had NO plot. None.
Ghostbusters II is one I missed in the theaters but managed to be unfortunate enough to catch on Comedy Central. Garbage.
I’ve read the book and enjoyed it, but every time I’ve tried to watch 2001, a Space Odessey, I fall asleep. EVERY time. Not saying it is bad, I wouldn’t know. I can’t stay awake long enough to tell.
Nightmare Before Christmas, Pulp Fiction, and a few others mentioned here were great though!!!
I did find the Cook/theif/wife/lover to be amazingly gross though, and I’d never see it again though I can’t say it was a bad movie. Same goes for Naked Lunch. That movie grossed me out to new levels.

There are alot of others I wish I had walked out on, but they’re not worth remembering.
I remember when I was younger, a bunch of us neighborhood kids rented “Attack of the Killer Tomatoes”. I think we knew what we were in for, but it was a good laugh at how bad it was made and a waste of our $3.
I just saw “Ready to Rumble”. AVOID at all costs, even if you are a wrestling fan. We didn’t walk out, but we did want to kill ourselves to end the pain. This movie was a big pile of monkey crap.

What a remarkable coincidence! I went to stay with a friend a few weeks ago for a weekend, and the two movies he picked up for us to watch were Happiness and Your Friends and Neighbors. They were depressing, ugly, and fucked-up for the sake of being fucked-up. I felt so dirty afterwards that I actually wanted to see Sleepless in Seattle to cleanse my palette and expose myself to some maudlin touchy-feely romantic comedy.
One became great by expecting the possible, another by expecting the eternal, but he who expected the impossible became greater than all. -Kierkegaard
I was dragged to see “Blues Brothers 2000”. After the first 10 minutes I kept hoping it would get better. Alas, it did not. As much as I wanted to leave, I couldn’t because I wasn’t driving and had to wait for my ride. Blech.
Moral: Never watch “Blues Brothers 2000”
That was a well-plotted piece of non-claptrap that never made me want to retch.
I forced myself and my suffering wife to sit through the Beavis and Butthead movie. (we’re STILL married, BTW :)) I kept hoping the movie would depart from the TV show, but, of course, it never did. DAMN YOU, Mike Judge!!!
