Films you couldn't finish

Whether you think cinema died with Hitchcock or only got good once Michael Bay started blowing up helicopters, this is the place where moving pictures are discussed.

    I'd never walk out of the cinema. I'd doubt I'd willingly pay to see a film so bad that that's necessary.
    Watching at home, I got 20 minutes into The Piano and got bored. Also I've seen the first two and a half hours of Amadeus about 5 times but have never made it to the end, I do wonder what happens.

    I didn't walk out of the cinema but I wished I did was so cringeworthy watching Magic Mike with my mom...AWKWARD is not even the word especially the penis pumping scene

    Walked out on Tropic Thunder after an hour. Promised myself I'd never walk out the cinema but that film was just awful

    If you leave a cinema before the film finishes you have too much money.
    Off topic, but likewise, people who walk out of sports matches so early.

    A Clockwork Orange.

    Loved the book, but I fell asleep watching the film.

    I can't remember the name but it was about Aliens that were living in this Alien shanty town and there was a camera man there or something.

    Some guy on the Student Room internet forum replied to my post trying to be clever, wasting 2:48 minutes of my time. I was like what the f*** is this s***, so I went to the toilet then I returned to my computer and I thought I won't let some guy on the internet get to me so like f*** you man. :hand:

    Adventureland - what a load of tripe.

    It's on iplayer I noticed earlier.

    I don't really get the 'if you leave you have too much money' thing. It's not like anyone goes to the cinema intending to leave before the end. And you save money in parking! It doesn't make any sense.

    Zombieland was absolutely awful, it wasn't entertaining at all and consequently I never got past 60 mins; no wonder it was in the bargin bucket at Blockbuster.
    I rarely go to bad films in the cinema but if I do I stay to the end as have paid for it. Bad Teacher was atrocious but as my ticket was already paid for I endured the whole thing.

    It was so boring and depressing. Kristen Stewart was unbelievably captivating .

    I've never walked out in the cinema (who does that?) but I have just said '**** it' to certain DVDs. Guy Ritchie's Revolver, any Stephen Daldry film besides Billy Elliot, and a surprising number of Nicole Kidman films (Australia, Golden Compass, Cold Mountain, The Hours, The Invasion, The Stepford Wives, The Human Stain, and more) given that she's actually a pretty good actress.
    That is an amazing film!!!

    Casino Royale, so many times we thought it finished then after everything faded away it would cut to a new scene and there be more:mad: dam film just wouldn't end.

    really like the song from the credits though.
