Leaving

[kotte]

Leaving amovie before it's over...what's up with that?

I thought it only happened in the US but I just saw a film where half the audience left.

What is that? Can't people show a little respect a stay? They spend 8-12 bucks on it.

It doesn't matter how bad it is, you should not leave a film before it's done.
It totally ruins it for me if people complain during a (for me) good movie. Same thing with leaving.

It makes me so mad...who leaves a film?

I've done this exactly once. "Rough Cut" starring Burt Reynolds. Original theatrical release.

Yeah, I'm old.

I sit through shitty movies, because then it's fun to point out bad stuff if you're with friends.  I imagine I would just leave if it was just me, but I usually go with people.

Never saw that one...I almost walked out of Blair Witch Project...I'm hip and young...and I didn't like it.

I've only walked out of one movie,"Clockstoppers."  Yeah, I should have known better.

I think walking out of a movie is better than walking out of a movie, back in, out again, back in, etc.  I don't understand if it is just the people's bladders or attention spans. Walking out is fine, just dont distract me when I'm trying to watch the movie.

i have never walked out of a movie but not because im against it, i just havent ever had the urge


this should go in "Everything Else Cinema"

I've NEVER left a film. My thinking is that even in the worst films, there might be one tiny, little nugget of a great shot, a great line of dialogue, or an actor's look, etc.; something that might just be the only thing to remember.

What film was that?

On the movie Black Sheep:

In researching this film's reception I noted many very negative reviews, including the claim that Gene Siskel referred to this as the only movie he walked out on in 26 years of movie reviewing.

Wow. Thats something.

I only walked out on The Thin Red Line when I was like 13, mainly because my parents' movie had long finished before TTRL was done, and they wanted to leave. I didn't think it was so good then, and I don't now, for different reasons of course.

[SHAFTR]

...i gotta disagree w/you on that one..
i went with about four friends to see this ..they ALL fell asleep...except for me..this film is gorgeous......ANOTHER UNDERATED MALLICK CLASSIC..and deserved that acad. award for best pic......this whole film has a surreal dreamilike feel to it which gives it a  unique experience during the scenes of violence....

I have no problem with walking out. I walked out of A Walk To Remember. I had read the book and enjoyed the pure innocence of it and looked forward to the movie because Mandy Moore is charming to me. The film updated its story from the 1950s to now and added so much graphic content all in the name of teen movie cliche. It just pissed me off. Oh, and don't ask me what the fuck I was doing reading that book in the first place.
