Beatty so loved the character of Dick Tracy that he went to so pretty wild ends to ensure he maintained the rights to the character.

I had such low expectations going in that I actually kind of liked it. Not enough to ever watch it again or buy it, but it was okay.

The only movie I ever walked out on was the Brad Pitt Jesse James movie. The wife and I went to see it with another couple and we all hated it. It was tedious and dull, and I've never seen Pitt play a more uninteresting character. Maybe it got better. Don't know, don't care. I'll stick with Long Riders when it comes to movies about the James Gang.

Two movies that I wanted to walk out on but didn't were Moonstruck and the Clooney Batman movie. In both cases I was with someone else who had driven to the theater and many miles away from home (saw the Batman movie in Staten Island), so I was kind of stuck. Ironically, I was with the same person when I saw both of them.

Only movie i ever saw people walk out of was Irreversible. Pretty sure because it was just too graphic.

ToxSocks 09-19-2024 12:21 PM

Anyway....you can't tell use all that and not tell us the name of the movie. At this point, i want to stream it just to see how bad it is.

I guess so.

He may very well be the only person on Earth to have walked out of those two films.

If you walk out of movies like Star Wars or LoTR, you have a stick up your ass. Or maybe something bigger than a stick, idk.

But talk about taking yourself way too seriously....

My main problem with the LOTR movies was that the third one should have ended with the "you bow to no one" scene. Instead, it droned on for another pointless half an hour while I HAD TO PEE REALLY REALLY BAD.

Nearly pissed myself getting to the john.

You walked out of Lord of the Rings, did you shit your pants or something?

TinyEvel 09-19-2024 02:04 PM

Rainman, what did the director say in their intro? Any conceptual hoo-hah that might've given you some insight in how to receive this?

Sounds more like a film art installation than a "movie", I've been to art museums where you walk into a dark room and something like this is playing on the wall.

Only movie I walked out on was THE MASTER. Waste of two good actors in a terribly boring film. also, one other film around 2001 was called the Dinner or something about a dysfunctional family gathering after one family member died. It was dark and depressing, can't remember the name.

Awful films. At least 1/3 of the population hates them. Its just that the other 2/3 loves them more than life itself.

Not near as bad as Star Wars but still very bad.

It was hurting my head just reading the op this morning, did you get the sense other audience members around you were about to die rolling their eyes as well?

Either way, you clearly made the right call... yeeesh

Easy 6 09-19-2024 04:01 PM

The one and only movie I've ever walked out of was The Royal Tenenbaums

The trailers somehow made it look brilliantly witty, but good grief that thing was suuuch a crushing bore... Andersons worst movie by far, probably didn't even make it halfway through
