Movies You Have Walked Out of - Turned Off


Over on FBook, I mentioned what a loser movie "Dinner for Schmucks" turned out to be.  I saw an entire wall of the dvds at the store and just assumed that it must be in demand.  So much for the Public  (sorry - that includes both of us, I guess).  I mean, I enjoy a really stupid movie once in a while, but this was just a waste.

Agree? What movies have you walked out of - or turned off the DVD player in the middle of.  I will start with a couple:

- Dinner for Schmucks.  Worst I've seen this year
- Bo Derek's '10' - Sorry.  She's hot.  She's even Conservative (?) but that movie blew dirt balls
- The Remains of the Day ... with all respect to Anthony Hopkins whom I LOVE
- Unforgiven.  I KNOW!  RIght?!?  It's Clint!   But I fell asleep 3 times trying to watch that ... a cowboy-western is supposed to have some ACTION..... zzzzzzzzz   That was back on laserdisk days ....
- ANYTHING ANIME!!!!   SUCK, SUCK, SUCK ....
- Whatever that dumbass horror movie was that had Alice Cooper.  Even HE couldn't save it.

The Thin Red Line. This "artsy" depiction of wartime was utterly lacking in anything it tried to portray. No sense of cinematic timing, no story I could discern from it's pathetic narration; I couldn't even remember the characters names, much less care what happened to them.

Thin Red Line ... Never heard anything good about it! Thx

Can I add another, albeit broader statement: I can not deal with SUBTITLES. Maybe I have ADD or something. But it is also why I can't watch the news channels; too many things going on ....

ADD? Geez, I am offended at that re... HEY LOOK, there goes a squirrel!

How about "Lost in Translation"
Then if you tell someone that loves it that you don't like it, you will get reasons why you should like it.

I liked Young Guns. I didn't like The Deer Hunter. I thought that movie stunk. It was years ago and I don't remember much about it, other than I hated it.
