Traffic - no idea why but we went to see it in Vegas right before our flight home. We were hung over as hell and had a couple hours to kill and couldn't handle a casino anymore. Our math was about 30 minutes off.

I don't know that one.
If I recall, Tom Cruise is in it which makes it his worst movie hes ever done.


It's a great movie and he was Oscar nominated for the role.


Great movie, dude just made a tactical error taking family to a PTA movie. Hey mom and dad , let's go see what the maker of Boogie Nights is up to.
It sucked. And I probably didn't know who made it. It was 23 years ago. Doubt I paid much attention to that.

To put Alexander in perspective: Rosario Dawson gets naked and it is still the worst movie I've ever seen.

Henry Fool with my girlfriend now wife. Probably the highest RT score I've walked out on. Was playing at the Inwood Theatre which had a bar. We went to the bar

The only one I remember walking out of was right before it ended, a Steven Seagal movie where his character was standing in front of a group of oil workers lecturing them about the "evils" of oil. This was at a time in my life when I was working for Texaco, and my dad was a career chemist for Shell. **** that guy. Hypocritical rat, who was using a whole hell of a lot of oil-based products just to film that craptastic scene.

I've considered walking out of other bad movies, but I don't recall actually having done so.
Holy chit, this was my first answer too. "On Deadly Ground."
We were teenagers and loved mindlessly violent Seagal movies back then, but at some point it was so stupid we just looked at each other and said, ready to go?

Pretty sure we walked out of bewitched with will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman.

Also my wife and I watched Elvis on HBO and lasted maybe 30 minutes. I hate that movie style.

If we are counting movies at home, I've probably quit more movies on Netflix than I've finished.

The New World

It was terrible. I recognized early that Collin Farrell was not a good actor.

Collin Farrell is occasionally great. He has a good shot to win a Best Actor Oscar in 2023.

The last 15 years pretty much every movie I've seen has been with family, so I haven't been able to leave.
However, there are movies where I went to sleep:

Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1
Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindlewald
Mary Poppins Returns

I'm sorry. This movie could ruin a wet dream. Now, knowing this, I loathe this film even more.

I don't remember ever walking out on a movie in a theater, but I find these days I am very quick to turn off a movie on Netflix/Prime/etc.

I tried to watch "Glass Onion" last night and just couldn't get in to it. So I switched to the Tech/Ole Miss game.

That turned out to be a fun game to watch.

Marley and me, 10 minutes into the movie i knew where it was going. Before the end i told my wife I was going to the bathroom, but really just sat in the lobby. 15 minutes later my wife come out a sobbing mess and punches me for leaving her in the theater.

I am cheap, so paying for a ticket and then walking goes against my nature. To get around this, I walked out of the movie I paid for and into a different movie that was just starting. Oddly, I can't remember what either film from that day were.

Dinner for Schmucks

I know this movie is bad, but I love it. There were only about 6-8 other people in the theater when I saw it, but they all walked out before it was over.

Saw Deliverance in a theater when it first came out. About a third of the audience walked out during the sodomy scene. Pretty controversial movie at the time.

Tried watching it recently on the TV and I have no idea how anyone made it through the whole thing. I don't know if it hurt Steve Carell's career, but it should have. He went full R-slur.

I can't recall walking out of a film in the theater, and I saw Battlefield Earth, though that may have been because I wasn't driving.

Not in theaters, but I did turn off Last Jedi during the casino scene. I was trying to make it through that scene until I had the epiphany that I hadn't enjoyed a single scene thus far, and pulled the plug.

Did anyone here actually like Dinner for Schmucks? I thought it was decent.

Edit: Never mind, someone said they loved it.

One of the Crouching Tiger type movies. Don't remember what it was called. It became battle of the primary colors at one point and my dad and I were done. We didn't even say anything to each other. Just both got up and left.

Never walked out. But I have quickly fallen asleep where I have no recollection of the movie. Mel Gibson's Hamlet back when I was a kid. And Angry Birds 2 while taking my kids.
