Cannae even remember what the film was called, absolute garbage though. Left and spewed all over the toilet floor. Oh dear.

Alan_R Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hidalgo. I enjoyed that film. It is one of those films that genuinely does have quite a slow start. Never walkled out a films, like someone else said I always hope it'll get better. Plus Im a tight arse and like to try get my moneys worth, grudge spending ?6-?7 quid on a ticket if I'm not going to stay and watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cambo_Jambo Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 The Hulk with Eric Banna. That is to say I would have walked out on it if it hadn't been the only film that I hadn't already watched on a 12 hour flight to Singapore. Unfortunately, my remote wasn't working properly so I couldn't even do my usual Tetris marathon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Say What Again Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I've never walked out of a film. I always think I should stick with it until the end just to see what happens. 2 different sets up couples walked out of Tropic Thunder a few weeks ago when I was there. I thought the film was good and laughed all the way through but he missus looked bored out of her mind and said she was glad when it finished.

Jambo Ell Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Have only done it once and it was some pesh comedy film released last year about Sheep, can't mind what it was called but I think it was a film made in New Zealand. I'd wanted to see Michael Clayton but the teletext still had the previous weeks cinema times up so when I turned up this was the only thing which was close to starting at the timme I had arrived at and seeing as I have 1 of those monthly passes I gave it a bash. Walked out after 25 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

argyjambo Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I vaguely remember walking out of a film at the ritz in Rodney St in the 70's. Cant remember the name of it but it was a terrible Sci-fi film starring Jon Finch. I'm a lot more selective about the films I now go to watch & to hire. Too much crap around now for my taste.

Stewart MacD Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 you're missing out! get the special edition and watch it a disc at a time (about 90-100 minutes each) Surely you mean about 90-100 minutes too long each? If you've seen one computer generated orc army, you've seen them all! As for the much hyped NZ scenery, it's the same as the alpine stuff on several early Bond flicks. Seen one....

Leitch Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Never walked out of a film, but was so very close with 2 films: Mission to Mars and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Mission to Mars was a terrible film, never watched it again, and never will Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon was...different. Went with a few mates (same ones I'd seen Mission to Mars with), and we'd never seen a film like it before and found it ridiculous! Spent our time laughing at the flying through the trees, the running up sides of buildings etc, and just got bored towards the end. Watched it again on my own maybe a year or two later - loved it. Thought it was an excellent film, and really enjoyed the other movies like it: Hero, House of Flying Daggers etc. I think the enjoyment we get out of films can be affected by who we go with.

Having worked in a cinema for 5 years while at Uni i have seen some crap but have never walked out even though i have a free cinema pass just cant do it. The happening was sooo bad a film i actually liked it for that reason couldnt stop laughing at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
