* Inverted by ''Film/TheProfessional'' - Mathilda's cover story [[spoiler: to the headmistress of an orphanage]] isn't believed because it's too generic, but she's believed when she reveals she's the SoleSurvivor of a family murdered by a [[DirtyCop corrupt DEA agent]] who was adopted by an assassin.

* The ''{{Film/Poltergeist}}'' remake has Griffin, the son, trying to warn the family about the weird stuff happening in the house. Not only does the family not listen to him, the mother suspects that he might be suffering from mental issues and is willing to send him away for professional help.

* In ''Film/{{Overboard}}'', when Annie finds some panties in the glove compartment of Dean's pick up truck, she accuses him of cheating on her, which he decides that this is the right time to come clean about everything that's happened. He goes on to tell her that she's an heiress worth millions of dollars, he's just a carpenter, not her husband, and his three sons are not hers. When she doesn't believe him, he tells his sons to back him up, but they say she is their mother.

* ''Film/TwelveMonkeys'': Not only does nobody believe James Cole when he tells people he's from the future and trying to gather information about a worldwide epidemic, but his time-traveling shenanigans and insane rantings may have very well [[YouCantFightFate inspired said epidemic]] to begin with. Reversed by mid-movie; his therapist convinces him he IS an insane homeless person; by the time he tries to seek mental help and turn himself in, she's found corroborating physical evidence (a WWI-era bullet in his body and a history text showing his face in the trenches.) She has trouble convincing him he's ''really'' from the future. Ironically, said therapist has written a book and given speeches on this trope.

* There's a TV Movie called Amos (1985), the plot has a old man in a Nursing Home with a Nurse Ratched clone who sleeps with a cop and murders the residents when they lose their marbles, so rather than play along he kills himself with the drugs that she used, in a letter to the lawyer exposing her tricks and when a requested autopsy exposes the overdose, the nurse is arrested by her boyfriend and she confesses while protesting the truth.

* ''Film/LicenceToKill'': After James Bond performs a death-defying stunt to steal Sanchez's money, Krest tries to explain what happened to Sanchez. Sanchez finds the story too far-fetched, saying there's no say someone would be able to do that, and accuses Krest of stealing it himself. Unfortunately for Krest, Bond then frames him by planting some of the money at his boat, causing Sanchez to kill him.

* In ''Mr. Right'', Francis meets Martha and pretty blatantly tells her he's a former contract killer and people are out to kill him; he even interrupts a date to go kill someone outside and tells her exactly what he was doing. He comes off as such a CloudCuckoolander that she just thinks he has a weird, morbid sense of humor. When she learns it's true, she's understandably upset and accuses him of lying; he reminds her he was telling her the truth the whole time.

* ''Film/BlindHorizon'': The Secret Service puts a man on hold who is ''reporting a threat to the President?''

* In ''Film/HomeAlone 3'', the cops don't believe Alex's claims that burglars are breaking into neighborhood houses. Somewhat justified in that the cops came in three times. It's just that the industrial spies breaking in to houses were pretty good at running away and leaving no traces. Alex doesn't even bother calling them when the burglars come for him, realizing that he's [[CryingWolf cried wolf]] too many times. And yet, the cops do eventually show up, because of a call he made earlier to an army recruiting station.
