I never walked from Robin Hood because I'd paid to see it. I did doze off at one point and had to shake myself awake. Wenders movies are so boring and take so long to get to their conclusion that I'd be asleep for sure therefore not in a position to walk. Unless it's sleep walking.

The Wrestler was alright but I saw it at home.

Me too, although if I had seen it at the cinema I would have been a bit pissed off for wasting good money.

I've never walked out of a movie but when i watched Game Plan i was close! If i hadn't of paid 70 quid to get in then i would of.... Also i had paid for popcorn! That was the only day that i could say i envied blind people!

Walked out of Avatar. Lost of pretty lights but no substance and VERY bad acting...

I agree with the people who say that if they've paid for a movie, they're staying.

Movies in theaters that I've thought about leaving:
You Don't Mess With The Zohan (worst movie ever)
Epic Movie (I don't know what possessed me to see that )
Shutter Island
Transformers 2
Valentine's Day

Movies on DVD:
The Great Debaters (tried to watch that 3 times)
Rabbit Hole
Good Luck Chuck

I walked out of Inception as I thought it was overhyped drivel! After dozing off twice I decided it was better to enjoy the outside of the cinema more.

I've slept through bits of many films most notably almost 30 minutes of Armageddon as i found out when I saw it again and couldn't remember having seen those 30 minutes. As for walking out I don't remember leaving a film due to its crapness but as I'm an unlimited cardholder I walked out on one (Superman Returns I think) for some twat behind me kicking my seat all through the film and me almost starting a fight with him (I then went to a different cinema to see the same film on same day) and most recently I walked out on Harry Potter after an hour because of audience noise, saw it again a couple of days later though.

I've walked out on several, one I waited until I had at least finished my popcorn Eat, Pray, Love (sooo very preditable) Transformers 1 (I was not 10 years old at the time so I left) and others over time. With all the movie plexes I usually walk into another theater to see if I can at least be amuzed and if the movies' good, I come back and see it in its entirity.

Lots of movies these days to choose from if you want to walk out.

I walked out of Hombre. actually I think, i think i walked
out of it twice on different occassions. It's many many
many many years ago. I guess i was looking for a more coventional shoot em up type western. I have seen it all the way through. many times since.
More recently, i gave up watching Battlefield earth. But that
wasn't at the cinema.

You know, If I spend money for it, i'll sit through it. I can always go home and drink my disappointment away. Now on that point, there was one movie I did walk out on and went straight to the bar to get a quick edge on that movie. DARKMAN. First 20 minutes where pure Shite....Gave it another 10 minutes and the shite went down the toilet and stunk up the whole place.
