I tried searching this (for about 5 minutes.)

What movies, if any, have you walked out of? I'm 30, and in all my years, have only walked out of two movies.

Oprahs 'Beloved' and Wolf Creak.

What about you guys?

Never walked out of a movie, Even if it’s a shocker, I'll stay till the end. At least I can then say "I saw...... & it was crap” Rather then saying "I saw half of.... and it was crap".

I have never walked out on a movie. Basically, I hate theater audiences so much that I only ever venture out to see films I absolutely can't wait to see. I rarely do the casual "oh that might be interesting" thing, unless friends drag me. So if I'm in a commercial theater, it's because of a film I've been anticipating for months.

However, there's been plenty of rentals I've stopped halfway through with an annoyed "oh, screw this"

The only movies that I've been tempted to walk out on were Batman + Robin and Godzilla. I sat thru both of them because that I would be in no position to offer a credible opinion about the quality of the movie if I didn't watch it from beginning to end. I started to think like that after reading a review of The Matrix from someone who said that it was so bad that they couldn't stand to watch the second half of the movie. I wasn't annoyed because they disliked the movie, because everybody is entitled to their opinion. I just think that if someone doesn't have the patience to watch the whole movie before deciding that it's terrible then their opinion is of no use to me.

The only movie I can remember ever walking out on or driving away from before the end in 40+ years was "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas"

Honestly had I been alone I'd probably stayed to the end. My old college roommate wanted to go see the latest Burt Reynolds movie otherwise I doubt I'd ever gone in the first place. I can't remember if he'd seen the play, but he was so disgusted by the halfway mark he/we threw in the towel. I don't know if I've ever seen the end of the movie though I think I've seen enough 15 minute blocks I do suspect I have.

I have never walked out of a movie either, but have stopped watching rentals. I used to be kind of proud of the former, but then realized my turning off the DVD player is pretty much the same thing. That said, something has to be pretty bad for me to stop watching it. The most recent? The "Crouch End" episode of TNT's "Nightmares and Dreamscapes."

My wife and I walked out before the end of Boogie Nights.

Although I have seen the whole thing since.

(ahem)

Last movie my wife and I walked out on was Sin City, but back when the kids were younger and we used to hire babysitters, we'd walk out on movies fairly often if we didn't like them. Time out of the house was like a treat back then, and we woudn't waste it sitting thru a bad movie.

Movies I walked out on by choice: Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf. I was gone by the time the titles were on. "WTF is this?"

Movies I walked out on because the friend I was with didn't want to stay and was being an ass about it? The Freshmen and Throw Momma From the Train. Same friend both times. I ended up watching both movies at home and enjoyed them.

I have only walked out on one film and that was Oscar....oddly enough I have seen it since and thought it was pretty good but at the time I was with a friend who wanted to go drinking and between sitting there hearing him piss & moan or just going for a beer...I chose the beer.

I wanted so badly to walk out of "Eye of the Beholder" with Ashley Judd and Ewan McGregor that I couldn't stand it, but I was with a friend and I knew he wouldn't leave. Seriously, if I had a weapon on my person when I was watching that film I might've actually killed myself. Probably the worst movie I've ever seen..........it just pisses me off thinking about it.
