What was the worst movie that you have walked out on in the theatre? Was there ever a movie that was so bad that made you do that?

300: Rise of an Empire
Blood, boobs and effects.
The first TMNT movie is the only one that I got up and walked out of. I was a kid when that came out though and I had gone with my parents and younger siblings, so I just hung out at the arcade machines at the theater until the movie was over. Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey I would have walked out on but it was a VHS rental that a friend had brought over, so it was as easy as pressing the stop button. :P
Since moving out on my own I only go to movies that I know will be good. If I'm even slightly unsure I download them first.
I didnt walk out of the theater, but I definitely slept through the Tiger Movie when my son was small. He slept through it too.
i'm not much of a movie person myself, and a lot of my friends disagree with me on this one, but the last movie i saw in theaters was The Gambler, and i didn't exactly walk out, instead i literally slept through 90% of the movie. I just couldn't get into it
I've never walked out on a movie. I paid for my ticket and food, so I'm damn well at least going to get my money's worth, even if the movie turns out to be bad.
That being said, I'm not really a big movie critic, so it's not hard to satisfy me. I haven't seen a lot of movies that I've hated.
I reserve going to the theater for movies people won't shut up about and which really impress me, as well as "well, I paid for this, I'm not leaving and wasting it..."
Basically, I'm cheap, and have almost entirely only seen good movies in theaters.
I know watching The Last Airbender at home I left multiple times, and kept coming back out of morbid curiosity. Does that count?
Beowulf. The only thing good about that movie was Angelina Jolie's body.
The only movie I've ever walked out on was Malibu's Most Wanted. I'm a pretty laid-back dude, but that movie was so terrible I couldn't take it anymore.
Something About Mary.
The last movie I walked out on iirc.
You cared enough to post.
There have been a few, but I didn't walk out. Just sat there eating the best popcorn in the world.
~ stuff, the best thing ~
This!! So much this !! LOL
OT: I didn't walk out but I should have on 'The Cat in the Hat'. To this day, I always feel I can sit through ANY movie after sitting through that steaming pile of celluloid.
As much as I wanted 'Kingsmen' to be good, there were several times when I though about walking out.
The theater across town had VERY lax security, basically all high schoolers, and me and a friend routinely got a 'twofer' and watched a second movie. (this started out in silent protest to 'TCitH' being so awful and getting our money's worth, but devolved into a monthly thing)
Really? My #1 movie of the year, so far.
I thought Sixth Sense was garbage and boring, I fell asleep both times I tried to watch it. It wasn't exactly "walking out" but sleeping twice is almost the same. When I was a kid, a former step brother and I got tickets to see the first 3 star wars movies, we left midway through the first movie.
'Horton Hears a Who' and 'The Lorax' both came out after 'The Cat in the Hat', BUT were not live action, so maybe technically that is true.

I don't want to be a hater, because there were some really good fight scenes, but the whole secret society that survives, a la '2012' theme, and the GOD AWFUL heads exploding into fireworks (really... REALLY?) just ruined it for me.
The Hitcher. Don't know why just awful film to me(
What is this?????? I love that film
Only film I've ever walked out on was Starship Troopers, and only because the sound stopped after around 45 minutes and nobody who worked at the cinema seemed to care. Like others, I tend to only watch movies at the cinema if I hear good things about it beforehand. I'll admit I've seen some terrible films at the cinema despite this, but they are few and far between (Alien vs Predator was probably the closest I cam to walking out on because it was shit!)
Never. My cinema visits are roughly of the same frequency as Halley's Comet, so I make sure its a good one before I go.
