Freddy Got Fingered. One of the only movies I've ever walked out on
Daddy would you like some sausage, daddy would you like some sausages?
Idk if this counts but me and a friend of mine went to go see the movie Skyline and no one walked out because no one else was there in the first place ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not a terrible movie by any means but Doctor Sleep. Poor elderly folks just weren't prepared for certain events
Doctor Sleep surprised me with how good it was, I was fully prepared for a let down, but I ended up really enjoying it
The nutty professor 2
I can only think of one. The original movie of The Barnyard. It's a kids movie, of course, and it was never going to be great, but kids were asking to leave that movie. That's impressive.
Fitting first example - I once rented Eragon on DVD, and turned it off after at most 15 minutes because it was so bad. Don't think even serving a life sentence I could become bored enough to reconsider watching that...
I watched several people leave during Team America. Yeah, it was the sex scenes.
I saw Ecks vs Sever in theatre, and I wish I had walked out.
Alien Covenant. After the flute scene I went out, fucking atrocity of a movie. Let's hope the new one is better, now that Scott isn't directing it.
Hedwig. I thought it was such a beautiful movie and about half the people in the theater left.
My mom and I walked out of Jurassic Park 3 and into Artificial Intelligence and we weren't the only ones. To this day, I haven't seen all of either film, but after seeing Jurassic World maybe I was too harsh on JP3. I remember quite liking what I saw of AI. I should rewatch it from the start.
Batman and Robin.
First movie I walked out of, about the time they were driving around on the rooftops. Abysmal.
Ad Astra - Good potential, abysmal execution
What even was the plot of that movie, I watched it years later on DVD and it seemed like several movies in one and none of them had bugger all to do with each other. Nice VFX mind.
Phenomenon (1996) with John Travolta.
We were with a group and some of the group wanted to see it, despite doubts by some of us. So we went anyways, figured even if it's bad, it's a shared experience. The movie was kinda meh, boring and forgettable, but not bad per se. However it is a looooooong movie, after about an hour about half of the group wanted to leave. Multiple people had already walked out of the theater at that point. By the time 90 minutes rolled around even the people who really wanted to see the movie said they wanted to leave. We were one of the last to leave, most people had walked out at that point. The theater apologized and gave everyone a voucher for another movie.
It wasn't even the good kind of bad where it turns into campy or corny or anything like that. It was just boring AF and maybe more of a TV movie than an actual theater experience.
I didn't see this in the theater, but if I had...
Showgirls. It was kind of a big deal when it was new because there was so much nudity and one of the stars had been in a very wholesome sitcom as a young actor. I was young enough that even though I'd heard it was awful I kinda wanted to see all that nudity, I thought how bad could it be? It was so terrible. So very terrible. The nudity couldn't begin to make up for how terrible it was.
