Bride And Prejudice. I will be happy if this is redlinked.
We were on a school trip to see it, and I just could not stand it. Fuckin' awful dreck.
I rarely have this experience because of the movies I watch. Movies I'd have walked out of if I could: Being John Malkovitch, Crash, and Brokeback Mountain.
Fight smart, not fair.I just genuinely can only think of one movie I've stopped watching Night At The Museum I loathe Ben Stiller in everything( except Royal Tennebaums where I actually thought he was good) and the movie was just bad most of time if I can't Finnish a movie it's because it was bland and I won't remember actually watching it
Humour, where would we be without it? In Germany, probablyPrimer, when I realized that all the characters were loathsome and I didn’t care what happened to any of them.
Movie I wish I’d walked out on: In a Year of 13 Moons. Contains about a half-hour of actual plot, the rest is an elaborate artistic practical joke on Fassbinder’s own audience. I should have seen the writing on the wall after the pointless five minutes of camera time given to a slaughterhouse worker scraping skin off a cow's head with a butcher knife.

"That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death itself may die."I have never walked out of a movie, but that might be because I see so few in theaters. If I am watching something at home/with friends that I don't like I just start snarking. Of course I do this for almost every movie I see so it is a bit of a moot point.
And Damn the Avatar hate is still going on? Wow.
You will never love a women as much as George Lucas hates his fans.The Last Airbender, which I attempted to watch on Hulu. The minute I saw Jackson Rathbone's white-as-snow skin, I closed the window and lamented the waste of time.
It's bad enough that he thinks looking Asian is a matter of getting a tan—worse is that he didn't even do it.
^Do yourself a favor: buy the Riff Trax and watch it with that. You won't regret it.
Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987I've seen bits of the Riff Trax, and it is very enjoyable.
I just don't want to buy the movie itself.
The Seventh Seal. I stopped the moment I realized that the "chess game with Death'' was an Excuse Plot for the director to express his nihilistic vision.
It's not very nihilistic when it goes on...
Sir Blockhead was nihilistic, his squire was nihilistic, bit players in the plot were nihilistic. Death was probably the most honest character in the film. And it's known fact that Ingmar Bergman was a pretty messed up guy who even supported Hitler when he was in power. Believe me, it comes across in his work.

Out of boredom? Too many to mention, but I'm going to second Avatar and Zombieland just because this thread reminded me.
Out of disgust: Femme Fatale. Horrid writing, and the piece of shit was basically pornography for the first ten minutes. I likes my movies and my porno completely separate.
Out of a different type of disgust: Men Behind The Sun and its sequel, The Nanking Massacre. I wanted to watch them both, but after multiple attempts, I gave up. The fact that the events portrayed are (to whatever degree) historically accurate is the aspect that ruined my day rather than the below-average filmmaking; I already have very little faith in humanity and being reminded that this sort of thing actually happened less than a century ago is not something I need to spend my time thinking about. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts. Everybody happy.
