I came very close to walking out on Titanic.  I figured though, I paid 8 bucks to see this, Im watching this f**ker sink.

 Howard the Duck. I just walked out. Couldn't watch it.

I agree PEARL HARBOR was an insult to the US and a solid contender for the worst movie ever made. It should be reviewed on this site.

You have gotta be kidding.

Andrew tends not to review big blockbuster movies.  He tends more to the genre, cult, and just plain cheesy movies.

Liz ("And You Call Yourself A Scientist) is more apt to cast a withering eye, and review, at a mainstream, popular movie (both good and bad)

It takes a lot of hurt to make me walk.

Only time walking out of a single feature: I was so bored I trotted out on "Night Shadows" (AKA "Mutant") right after the little kid gets taken by the zombies in the men's room. (I'm not sure, but I think that might be in the last fifteen minutes, too.) Still, the zombie-mutant-transformation scene (in which a guy loudly and sloppily turns from "normal" into an acid-blooded murder-happy zombo AS THE DOCTOR IS DESCRIBING THE SYMPTOMS, IN SEQUENCE, three feet away without noticing it) is a scream.

Double-features shouldn't count, but after "Nine To Five," I was damned if I was going to make it past the first five minutes of "Cannonball Run 2." Ergh, my skin just crawled. And I made it through a "Congo/Judge Dredd" double-bill with glee.

Close call, my "friend" made me stay: "Deep Rising." After the halfway point, we were (quietly) urging the movie to get it over with. ("And the annoying sidekick everyone thinks is dead shows up...NOW. ...NOW. Aw, come on. And he shows up...NOW. There he is! Finally! ...END, you piece of s***!! END!!")

SIde note--Movies I have seen people fall asleep during: "Chariots of Fire" (perfectly understandable); "Batman Forever" (snored loudly, too--turned out he was on medication and had to be asked to leave); "The Phantom Menace" (during the freaking Pod Race, that's how exciting THAT was).

 "Deep Rising."

Ahh..had a great line, though "If the cash is there, we do not care"
