Default Walkout

The Relic. It was abysmal. Walked out of that and into Liar Liar. Which I also walked out of.

Double whammy.

Default Quite a few...

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Clear and Present Danger
Alice in Wonderland
Bringing out the Dead
Planet of the Apes
Independence Day
Con Air
The Mask

Seems to be a pattern of Tim Burton atrocities - should have learned my lesson but do love some of his films. Notably Pee Wee Herman, Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood and Sweeney Todd. Burton seems to only be capable of hitting or missing in my opinion.

Also fallen asleep for more than 50% of the following in the cinema:
Masters of the Universe
Batman Returns
Scooby Doo
A.I.
The Mummy Returns


and the two films I wish I had walked out of are
The Avengers
Blues Brothers 2000

Thumbs down I have left a fair few in my time, only recent ones are memorable.....

There have been a few where I have almost conceded defeat and leaving early, examples would be a Scanner Darkly, probably one of the most mind-numbing films i have ever watched but I saw it through to the end as it was paid for and in hope of it getting better. Most recently I left a film called Holy Rollers, I read the sypnosis which sounded interesting and cast which included Jesse Eisenberg and the less well known guy from the hangover, having enjoyed Eisenberg's performances in previous films I commited, it was probably the worst film I have ever seen. Luckily I have a cineworld card so I felt less guilty as with the nearly £9 cost I would have probably seen it out!

I've walked out of two, Rocky and Bullwinkle, I went under duress and left as quickly as I could, and the second one, some what controversially, O' brother where art thou. Never bothered to give it a second chance, apart from being shown a clip of it in lectures.

I've fallen asleep in two, Pirates of the Caribbean 2...I think it was two anyway, and Anchorman.

That said I did get dragged, many years ago and with a female, to Down With Love with Freddy Prince Jnr, I was very close to walking but I was still on first base!
That and Bridget jones 2 (again with a girl but this time at least I was with a mate and we were both drunk which made it more bearable!) are the worst things committed to film ever! 
'Down With Love' stars Ewan McGregor and Renee Zellweger, but Freddie Prinze Jr is not in it. Did you perhaps mean 'Down To You' starring Prinze Jr. and Julia Stiles?

Me and my friend wanted to walk out of 'Tree of life' ,but we'd paid for the tickets ,so we decided to stay and lose 2,5 h of our lives. God ,it was the worst film I've ever seen! I also was thinking about leaving early on 'Brideshead Revisited' and 'That's complicated'.

Went to see The DaVinci Code in Japan, not only was the film utter b*llocks but because it was subtitled, the audience were all talking amongst themselves.....left after half an hour. Also fell asleep through The Brothers Grimm, that film WAS grim

Paranormal Activity. not because it was scary - it was Orange Wednesday and full of kids laughing - it was more like the scene in Gremlins when they go to see Snow White...
