How many times have you walked out of a movie theater before the movie was over?

I walked out on Fast and the Furious.  My brain was threatening to climb out my ear and run away if I made it sit through any more of Paul Walker's "acting."

Begged friends to let me leave: "Deep Rising."
Left with less than fifteen minutes remaining: "Night Shadows" (AKA "Mutant").
Left in first fifteen minutes: "Cannonball Run II."
Remained seated: "Congo" and "Judge Dredd" double-feature.

I liked "Dune" enough, but I can understand those who don't. As I see it, the problem with it is that almost any scene has a voice over to make us understand what we just saw, which makes it quite unbearable. Still, the visuals are great and so is the story, if you try to pay attention and you don't give up easily.

Personally, I can't remember ever leaving a cinema before the movie ended, though I have been as close as you can be without actually heading to the exit with the following:

- "Phantoms": That slow, slow pace was killing me.

- "We were soldiers": Worst movie I have ever seen with the exception of...

- "Vanilla Sky": A decent sci-fi thriller remade into a romantic comedy starring Tom Cruise (!) and Penelope Cruz. Scary or what... What's worst, it spans for over 130' and has some of the worst placed music (including the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations") I have ever heard.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......... I have never walked out of a movie theatre...

Not yet but came close with "Dreamcatcher" and "Dr. Dolittle 2"

Now if we want to talk about the stage theater I've done it four times with "Bride of Frankenstein Goes Malibu," "Rent," "Cats," and "Rocky Horror Picture Show." Love the film, but the stage show has some of the worst music I've never heard.

never walked out of a movie but I came close with some
Kung Pow Enter the Fist
The Ring
House of a 1000 corpses(mostly because there was a guy weezing behind me and it was real f**king irratating)
Me Myself and Irene

I've only walked out 4 movies in my entire life:

HUDSON HAWK - I actually went down the hall and saw ARMY OF DARKNESS for a 3rd time just to feel like I got my money's worth.

AMOS & ANDREW - I actually went down the hall and saw STONE COLD for a 2nd time just to feel like I got my money's worth.

JERKY BOYS: THE MOVIE - Hell, I just went home. Two days later I was diagnosed with a bacterial infection in my digestive tract. I've never been able to prove a link to the movie but I think that film was terrible enough to cause illness.

TARZAN & THE LOST CITY OF GOLD - What does it say about a movie's quality when I walked out of $1 matinee showing with only 15 minutes left in the film?
