ha sounds good, another you may appreciate if you find it appealing is "House of Flying Daggers". I actually find the latter much more enthralling due to its depth and purpose.

the only movie i have ever walked out on in a theater was Godzilla remake!!! ARGHHH!! Horrible!!



Every breath you take, watching you
I finished it, but hated it - Forrest Gump. Something about it & Tom Hanks rubbed me wrong: the syrupy optomism, nationalism, 'feel good'-iness just made me sick, the inappropriate use of music to try & create an era but reduces it to ad like banality. I could never watch another second of it & wish I had of stopped watching.

Other would be Swordsman with an Iron Umbrella which had depressed, English sounding dubbing (imagine Neil from the Young Ones tv series) which didn't match the subs on screen, and there were not one, not three but four sets of subs covering half the screen - Korean, Cantonese, Mandarin & English. If it was a good movie I could have lived through this, but the actors didn't know martial arts! Scenes where the supposed swordsman whirled around a circle of bad guys, clearly missing some by a good foot & mowing them all down was staggeringly bad. Poor direction, bad lighting, dialogue I doubt had any continuity in any language, it was unwatchable.



I ain't gettin' in no fryer!
I was in Guam, and was bored, so one of my friends and I went and watched Dark Water. We walked out about half-way through because it was, well...boring.

just can't sit through it, tried many times over the years - I think it's truly, truly awful

Yup- Grease was pretty terrible. The scene with Olivia Newton John in the leather pants at the end was okay for like 3 minutes, but doesn't make up for the rest of the movie.

I find it hard to make it through MOST Nicholas Cage movies (except "Raising Arizona"). I just can't get into him at all. "Con Air" was particularly painful.

OOh "Dare Devil," what a TERRIBLE movie, uggh. The main character is blind. About 10 minutes into it I started to envy him. At least if I was blind I wouldn't have had to see that movie.



I walked out on "Imposter" when it was out in theaters, that was a truly aweful movie...

I cannot believe they made sequels.

I remember watching that when I was little. For some reason afterwards, eating chicken for a little while would make me sick. Never watched any of the sequels, one was enough to last me the rest of my life.

Boondock Saints was shown to me by a girl who said she didn't like violent movies, but liked BS (apt acronym) because she thought "the main actors were hot". I shoulda known better...
