No, but I came close in LOTR: The Two Towers. My arse was numb and I came out hating the film. Re-watched the whole trilogy on DVD and love all of them now but they're way too long to sit in a cinema and watch. My friend's brother was snoring after the first half hour until the end.

I was desperate to walk out of Vanilla Sky but so many other people already had that I felt bad disturbing even more people getting out myself!

Walked out of the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland as it was 3am and the aircon in the cinema was freezing. So we just went to a park and got Maccas.

Yeah, the only time I've ever fallen asleep in the cinema was during the first LOTR.

nope, but really wanted to with Transformers 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and the last Indiana Jones film. I just decided to laugh at them instead.

I think the closest I came to walking out was The Last House on the Left a couple of years ago.

I have been kicked out of a film halfway through though. Some dick was sitting kicking the back of my chair, and I got sick and blasted him, very loudly calling him a ******...just when the staff came in :bored:

LOL I have a theory that the reason it made nearly 3billion was because people had to keep going back to see it again after falling asleep the first time. :hugesmile:

It made as much as it did from over priced tickets for the not very effective 3D.

I went 11 times and didn't nod off once! I can't wait for the re-release in 3D next year!

Unstoppable - which was just a movie about a train that wouldn't stop, it was balls.

Yep - Hairspray.

My gran walked out of a film called undercover brother.

She had took me and my sister to see it because we kept going on about it.

Then a lesbian scene came on, she got up and stormed out, muttering on about it being disgusting and unnatural :laugh2:

Wanted to walk out when watching Tropic Thunder, Scott Pilgrim and Lesbian Vampire Killers (dunno why I thought that would ever be good) but never have done, figure I might as well stay to the end and even if I did leave I'd just be left standing outside on my own waiting for whoever I was with to come out before I could go home :laugh:

We walked out of Children Of Men in like ... 2006 I think it was. It's a decent film but we were just mucking about and didn't give it a chance. Ended up drinking in a bush instead.

Sorry Clive Owen.

Ahhh memories :D

I've never walked out although I came close during Mr Bean's Holiday. My friend always used to make the worst decisions when it came to what film to watch.

No but I was pretty close to during The Blair Witch Project. I still can't understand why people think that film is good/scary, all did was give me a headache with the ****ty camera work

but there was so much hype about that film its like you had to experience it. I think it was the ending that freaked people out a bit.

that said, I never had the urge to see it again and when I caught it on TV eventually I realised it was actually really boring and turned off.

But Blair witch 2 was far far worse in a very different way. They could have made a really good film with the premise. I hear the original filmmakers are now planning their own Blair witch 2. But once bitten...

I have never been to the cinema and not enjoyed what I watched, but I don't go that often. I have turned a couple of films off I watched on DVD though that were awful. Alien vs Predator Requiem and a ****ty Seagal film from his early days.

Only ever go when it's something I REALLY want to see..so don't go much

I was forced to the Wickerman re-make with Nicholas Cage..that was single handedly the worst film and plot i've ever witnessed in my life, it was so bad I forgot to leave

This.

I know it was a true story but if you want a story on a train then watch The taking of Pelham 1,2,3,John Trevolta and Denzel Washington were class in the movie,plus it was faster paced than Unstoppable which was slower than Flash Forward.

The end wasn't even that scary I thought, and all the way through it was just alot of snot and oh someones moved some twigs around ......creepy.....not.

Don't worry, I never got the urge to watch the second one after seeing that lol

:laugh3:

Poor granny. (mine used to be the same - watching tv, if anyone even had a passionate kiss, she'd give out the loud TUT, shake the head, twist the mouth and change channel!!)


I walked out of Evita when it first came out - mostly because the guy I was with brought along his teenage kids who understandably, weren't remotely interested in the movie and kept moaning all through it.

Got to see it later without them and loved it.

I don't know who has ever watched 'Midnight Express', it's an old movie. I walked out at the part where he bit the other guys tongue out, I don't know why it is that certain things are more disturbing than other's, I've seen loads of gory movies, but it totally freaked me out at the time
