Movies you couldn't even finish.
List the movies you couldn't even finish and why.
Marci X - Lisa Kudrow did a rap about designer purses Idle Hands - I realized it was about a posessed hand Inspector Gadget - It was too damn boring |

I dont think I've ever not finished a movie but sometimes I wish I hadn't
Legally Blonde League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Kate and Leopold |
Eyes Wide Shut, absolutely hated this film.
Too many others to list. |
I left in the middle of my free viewing of The Whole Ten Yards.
|

The Wedding Planner... :rolleyes:
This thread is a little different then the "walk out" one because movies on DVD or even TV can also be listed... but here is the link for it: You Ever Walk Out of the Theater? |
Yeah, I also just recently waked out of Envy. I paid 10 bucks for about 20 minutes of bad bad film.
|
Home Alone 4, just terrible.
|
I never walk out of movies, or turn them off early. But Leage of Extrordinary Gentleman, i had to get out of there. Luckily, they was a midnight showing of Die Hard across the hall.
|
Does falling asleep half way thru count? that would be Coyote Ugly

The Royal Tenenbaums - It was just horrible (save for Gene Hackman, who was great during the portion I saw).

Legally Blonde-put me off doing law forever and I only saw 20min!!!
Moulin Rouge-made me want to gouge my eyes out. Dirty Dancing-just couldnt watch it all. |
I never walk out of movies at the movie theatre but I did fall asleep when watching the Man in the Iron Mask...that was just horrible. We rented a B-movie one time called Axem' and we watched only five minutes of it before turning it off. It was really terrible! :(
|
eraser head. im not really a squimish person...i normally look away and wait for the horror to go away if its that bad but this film touched a nerve...it was my fear of babies i think that did it. jsut the fact that this baby was so kind of mutant freak and the sound it made was soooooo horrible. i couldnt stand that sound. even when you close your eyes the sound is still there haunting you and all these images of this mutant freak baby are popping into your head. i couldnt look at babies for a while after that without wanting to run away screaming. i think i watched half that film then i had to turn it off. yuk yuk yuk.
|
I've been meaning to watch that for a while. . . .
|
Well I've never walked out on a movie before, but just watching them probably Gods and Generals and The Two Towers we're the two toughest for me to fully get through. Partly due to their length as well. Liar, Liar was very painful as well to sit through, and of course The Santa Claus
|
Paycheck
|
gili, i think thats how you spell it, i could not finish it at all, it was so stuped, the story line, the plot, the whole idea
|
It actually had a plot? I refuse to watch that movie, along with Maid in Manhatten.
|
Well I just recently rented "House of the Dead"...this is the worste movie ever.Bad acting,Bad directing,Bad cinematography,Horrible plot and story telling...And I LOVED EVER FRAME OF IT.just goes to prove that with the right people and the right drink any movie can be fun (except for charlies angels 2).
|
Movies i couldn't finish
1. City of the walking dead-don't even get near this movie. It's so horrible, let's not even discuss it. ::gags::
2. Godzilla (new one)- A total brainbuster. 3. Inspector Gadget-I own it. Watched the first ten minutes of it and never watched it again. LOL 4. The psycho remake- It's obvious why 5. Terminator 3- One of the biggest dissapointments in studio blockbuster history. 6. Day of the Dead- I couldn't watch it all the way through at first not because it was bad but because it was just so damn violent. 7. Gangs of Newyork- Good movie. Really good documentary of the times but just too damn long for one sitting. 8. Troy- What an inacurate, dimwitted, boring, CGI piece of dirt. And it was a long movie too, i hear. There's probably more. I just can't think of them now. |
I'm probably gonna get a bashing for saying this but ...Jay and Silent Bob strike back. Those guys were good in small doses but i couldn't take a movie devoted to them... just to damned annoying!
|
Honey for Oshun (2001)
I saw this late at night and fell asleep halfway through. From what I had seen, I had no desire to try and finish it the next day. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003) After seeing major disappointments like View from the Top and Alex and Emma, I couldn't bring myself to finish watching this. It (and the other two) made French Kiss look like a classic. |

Eyes Wide Shut...........kept dozing off. Also fell asleep during Coyote Ugly.
|
the first scooby doo film..after the first five minutes, i'd had it...
|
any movie I start watching after 10 pm while lying on the coach, I always fall asleep, but the only movie I can think of that I stopped watching because it sucked was Stewart Saves His Family
|
Groundhog Day
This is a movie my husband LOVES. I've tried to watch it three times with him and each time I'll fallen asleep. I do stay up a little longer each time.....so maybe one day I'll acually see it to the end. :blush: |
Kill Bill WAs absolutely awful i cant believe people actually liked it. And yes i "understood" it.
|
I make it a rule never to walk out on movies. It's a streak that I must not brake. Also I can't let the movie win. :eek:
I did come close however with the movies "POPCORN" and "HARDWARE". As for video, there is only one that I did not finish. It's kind of an unknown low budget movie. I think it's called "BRAVEHEART". :D Actually, I'll probably end up seeing it sometime since I never really gave it a chance and shut it off after the first 20 minutes. |

That movie rates right up there with the snoozers. I got kind of sucked into watching it on opening night cause of all the hype. I remember watching it and thinking to myself, "The pace just has to pick up". I thought this about every 15 minutes and you know what? It never did. :( |
I could not finish watching Terminator 3
|
Eyes Wide Shut mops the floor with your mother.
|
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
I just can't sit through the whole film without having to leave the room. Love Actually Crap, crap, crap. Not funny, too long, WAY too many famous faces and cheesy enough to make me want to put my foot through my TV. |

No. She cannot mop and be mop, Garrett.
|
As much as I love the first "The Crow" film, I simply haven't been able to finish any other sequel/remake of the series.
Also, "My Boss's Daughter" was too terrible to finish. |
House of the Dead. Damn that movie sucked.
|
Dreamcatcher............it was just too gory and gross.
|

I went twice to see it in theatres and bought the DVD. C'mon now, it really wasn't that bad. |
League of Extrodinary Gentelmen...that sucked with passion.
|
Insomnia: I fell asleep it was so boring.
About Schmidt: I walked out of the theatre and never regretted it. |

The ending sucked eggs. I got a similar disappointing ending from Stephen King's "IT". |
Wow, what's up with everyone hating on Eyes Wide Shut. It's a good movie.
But here's my list: Scream Scream 2 Scream 3 Iknow what you did last summer (and the second one) You've got mail Chicago The Friday after Next The Stand (the hand of god at the end ruined it for me) The Helen of Troy usa mini-series |

I didn't even make it ten minutes into Vin Diesel's XXX before I was asleep. This movie was terrible.
|
'top gun' and 'jerry mcguire'. barfola.
'coctail' also seemed pretty unwatchable; if i'd watched it from the beginning instead of just walking in at the end i might not have bothered to finish it. |

Screw scream to hell i hate that crap. jus kidding i liked the 1st one and the 2nd and 3rd were alright. |
I cant believe pure films like Oh Brother, Scream, and Eyes Wide Shut was mentioned on this string yet I saw no garbage like...
How to Lose a Guy in 7 days The Sweetest Thing BioDome Girlfight Revenge of the Nerds 4 The Karate Kid 4 Enough with JLO Giggli Leprecahn Lost in Space |
Imply Lep 4 was rubbish? Frigin awesome man
|
House of the Dead was funny for a little bit but eventually, I just grew bored and went and did something else. Also I kept falling in and out of sleep watching Van Helsing, but this could be more due to the fact that I started watching it at 11:30 after painting all day long, or maybe it really did just suck.

You gotta be real stoned to enjoy Leprecahn Lost in Space. Probably need some acid in your system too. I made it about 30 minutes into the film before I abonded all hope. |

I've caught you out of this tree everyday and you have never thanked me!" -Kid runs away- "So, I'll see ya tomorrow!" |
one of the greatest things about scream (or to a lesser extent, the scream trilogy) was that it had a cynical look on the old slasher movies and used a clever script to pay respects to them.
and i think it is safe to call it a classic. i mean it only totally rejuvenated the slasher teen movie genre of the nineties. the most dissapointingly boring movie i have seen in the past while was Cool Movie with brad pitt i was expecting to see who framed roger rabbit 2, but instead got a reeking plie of ****. i didnt get past the 6th minute, ive never been so sure of the crappiness of a movie so quickly before. XXX girlfight the fu manchu movies several bond films finding nemo ice age princess blade etc etc much of this list is based on predictability and movies so predictable that i couldnt bother to continue watching it. of course there are many other peices of **** i have started to watch while channel surfing and couldnt bare to continue the torture |
Fell asleep in Harry Potter 3 and Lep 4 was quite franky....amazing, even better with drugs in your system...like Kyuss :D

He goes for the brain, the rationalizing side to scare you. I think his movies are genius and I loved all of his. Not to say I read his books. I don't. I'll admit I don't but man, his movies are great. He doesn't rely on the blood or the startles or any of that. It's all in your head and that's how he writes it. I'll always stand up for Stephen King because I don't think a lot of people appreciate how much of a horror genius he really is.
WARNING!! SPOILERS FROM "DREAMCATCHER" AND "IT"! Then this is how he should have ended the movie "IT". Not with the lot of them tearing it apart with their bear hands like a bunch of children.As for dreamcather. It was awsome untill about the last 10 minutes. Another movie ending with a dumbass looking alien creature. |

I tired to sit through Kids but it had no subtitles and I couldn't tell what the guys were saying :)
**is totally square** |

i always find it difficult to watch the godfather movies all the way through, purely because each one takes so long to explain the story in too much detail and they're so damn long :rolleyes:

I've never walked out of a theater.
However, I've turned off rentals, or I've walked out of the room. Here are a few I can remember doing that with recently: Second Hand Lions My Fair Lady (stopped watching at the intermission, and had no interest in watching the rest). Equilibrium |

My Fair Lady (stopped watching at the intermission, and had no interest in watching the rest). My Fair Lady...I've seen it a few times...it's not one of my favorite musicals. I liked it much better on stage than on screen. Maybe I would have liked it better if Julie Andrews had played the lead....and the costumes weren't so costumie. Also, I was used to hearing the broadway soundtrack with her (my parents had the original album)...and I couldn't get used to Audrey Hepburn in that role. Krack....I do love the actors in Groundhog Day....so maybe one day I won't snooze through it. :) |

Basically...I'm looking for a reason to think....'boy...am I glad I didn't waste money on this'. :p

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954)
To be honest there are few musicals (I could count them with one hand if I could be bothered) that I've seen that I enjoy. I'm just not a fan of the genre, and this film did nothing to change that. |
i tried watching elf twice.....
|
A couple of the films I couldn't finish quite a few years ago have gone on to become my favourite films. Apocalypse Now took me several goes - but I still think its dreamlike qualities go so well with late nights and drinking that the danger is you fall asleep ;) same goes with Fear and Loathing. Both are now in my top 20
