Re: Has anybody ever left the theater in the middle of a movie because it was so bad?

I once left due to content, which made me physically sick within the cinema. I saw, 28 weeks later, the part where the woman gets her eyeballs pushed out made me throw up. It was gross. Too gross.

Re: Has anybody ever left the theater in the middle of a movie because it was so bad?

you did not miss much - it was more bloody than the first, but the story rapidly degenerated into a "fight everyone" situation -- though the responce of that army I though was good and also not unreasonable, I thought the build up to the outbreak was badly set-up. (seriously you have a military controled site and they put the whole place on lockdown and decide that the best thing to do is put everyone in a cramped carpark, lock the doors to stop them getting out and then only guard one door (thus letting the things get in through the unguarded door........(

Plus, letting the American army in totally ruined the British feel of the first, and that was a big element of attraction for me. It felt like more Hollywood crappola. I hope Danny Boyle got a big fat paycheck for that, and I hope he comes back for when they take over Europe and Asia next.

I really liked 28 Weeks Later. I was surprised at how good it was. And I'm usually a very picky moviegoer.

My only real gripe with it was that the father seemed to inexplicably retain some recognition of his kids and to be either following them or very coincidentally running into them again.

Re: Has anybody ever left the theater in the middle of a movie because it was so bad?

I tend to stay even if I hate the film, but I wated to walk out of Jurasik Park as I hated it utterly. I almost walked out of Highlander 2 but I was on a date and it would have been rude but at least I got a nice snooze, it was soooooo bad.

I actually liked the re-make of Planet of the apes, I liked the Village as well oh well each to their own.

Re: Has anybody ever left the theater in the middle of a movie because it was so bad?

I never left on a movie in cinema, but I frequently walk out on movies when at home ( for example when my dad watched that russian movie, in russian - which I donīt speak, and which was, like quite a few russian movies I saw, beautifully filmed, but soooooooooo slow.)

But I once witnessed someone leaving a cinema quite fast. It was Sin City, and this middle aged man practically ran out of the room when the first nudity scene came.

Saw a guy walk out of "John Rambo" recently, certainly it was violent but i would have assumed with Rambo in the title you knew what you were getting .

Only film i have ever walked out of was the Lover with Jane March and the did they didn't they controversy, it was crap beyond belief and i wasn't feeling too great which didn't help

I saw someone walk out on Scary Movie dragging their kid with them, it was just after the scene where she is pinned to the bedroom ceiling by a jet of white liquid.

Care to elaborate Vladd?

I left Chipmunks within the first 20 mins, looking back I wonder what exactly I was doing in that theatre? I used to be a fan when it was on television.

Mind boggling!
