‘Walked Out 5 Mins In’: 50 People List The Films They Wish They Never Saw
Interview With Expert
Movies have a way of leaving an indelible mark on our psyche, becoming a part of our core memory. Some classics shaped our younger, formative years, while others have become all-time favorites, whether to commemorate a lost love or channel the inner badass we believe lives within ourselves.
But some films make us fret about spending two hours of our lives on them, whether out of dissatisfaction or because we always want the fresh experience of seeing them for the first time. This list is a collection of responses from people online who didn’t hold back their strong sentiments.
Like in the previous Bored Panda list, you may see some familiar titles here, which can bring back a flood of memories, good or bad.
This post may include affiliate links.
#1
A Serbian Film.
I remember reading a professional review that ended basically with (not verbatim, and I may be misquoting, but it’s close) “And if after reading this review you still want to see it I have completely failed you as a journalist. This was not a movie, it was 2 hours of having my soul r*ped”.
Whenever this topic comes up, so do the usual titles. If we’re talking about movies that changed the way we view life as a whole, Steven Spielberg’s Jaws pops up in everyone’s minds—so much so that even clinical psychologists from Columbia University were made to believe that their lingering phobias of sharks and the open sea are “as sensible as fearing a T-Rex attack in Manhattan.”
The Final Destination film series likewise created a similar impression. The story revolves around impending doom from freak accidents like slipping into a bathtub or getting cooked alive in a tanning bed, which has caused some deep-seated trauma.

Which one? Smurf Pocahontas or the dumped down adaptation of a beloved animation series?
Then there are the cringeworthy movies that left an unpleasant taste in the mouth. These films felt like nothing but wasted time and money. But what exactly makes a ‘bad’ movie?
Film director Peter Markham, whose credits include The English Patient and Gangs of New York, wrote an article where he laid out some descriptions of what he thinks makes a film unpalatable.
“[It] proselytizes. Evades the moral questions it prompts. Has story problems. Shifts genres to fix its story problems. Uses transitions to avoid story issues. Churns out the same old tropes and clichés. Pulls its punches. Has no punches to pull.
“Leaves no traces in one’s memory, no heart, no challenge, no sense of itself, nothing. Panders shamelessly to contemporary culture and assumptions, whether they be facile or laudatory.”

The Mist. The ending sticks with me until this very day….
Tastes in films vary from one person to another. Critics weren’t a fan of Scarface when it first hit theaters in 1983. Simply put, they weren’t fans of the violence. Here’s what Newsweek’s David Ansen wrote about the film at the time:
“If Scarface makes you shudder, it’s from what you think you see and from the accumulated tension of this feral landscape. It’s grand, shallow, decadent entertainment, which like all great Hollywood gangster movies, delivers the punch and counterpunch of glamor and disgust.”
Fight Club is a similar case. With a budget of $63 million, it grossed a mere $37 million at the box office. Critics have deemed it a flop because of these poor numbers at the onset.

Requiem For A Dream
tbf, I was tripping pretty heavy when I saw it, and s**t went south quick.
Alexia 6 months ago (edited)
I attempted to see it as a student, when I was going through a depressive period. I casually mentioned it to my English teacher. Her tough reaction kind of woke me up: "Give up this b******t! You spend your time feeling sorry for yourself, ignoring school and you'll end up failing your exams. And you're better than that." I started focusing on studying and passed all exams. God bless her.
#13
*Mad Max: Fury Road*, so I could experience it for the first time all over again.
Despite further criticisms about promoting stereotypes against Cubans, Scarface eventually became a cult classic that everyone began quoting. "Say hello to my little friend" became a notable catchphrase. A-list rappers like Jay-Z and Nas saw themselves in Manolo Ribera and Tony Montana, respectively, the film's main protagonists.
For the late renowned critic Roger Ebert, the film depicted realism that people could relate to. As he wrote in his review, "[director] Brian DePalma and his writer, Oliver Stone, have created a gallery of specific individuals, and one of the fascinations of the movie is that we aren't aren't watching crime-movie clichés, we're watching people who are criminals."
#17
The hills have eyes , I watched it when I was about 7 and a certain scene won't get out of my head.
#18
The Final Destination.
At least not when I was 8. Had nightmares for about week and was scared of escalators for years.
As for Fight Club, critics credit its success to the affinity it developed with the younger market. Here's an excerpt of Variety's review of the film in 1999:
"Despite certain hostility from some sectors, especially in the U.S., this bold, inventive, sustained adrenaline rush of a movie about a guru who advocates brutality and mayhem should excite and exhilarate young audiences everywhere."
#19
Threads 1984
Its a movie that makes you feel like grime or sludge on a ball of insane people. Unlike a lot of movies this is one where all of the worst s**t thrown at you in this depressing movie you know could happen, it might never happen but it's reminding you there is a cloud of terrible death out there there could be unleashed and if you survive you'll wish you was dead.
#21
Shrek, but just so i could watch it for the first time again.
On the flipside, some highly touted films failed to deliver on fan expectations. And these aren't just one-off criticisms from someone who didn't like the movie. This is unanimous feedback from fans of a TV show with a strong cult following.
We're talking about The Many Saints of Newark, a film by David Chase, the creator of The Sopranos. The multi-awarded HBO series has stood the test of time thanks to modern social media, which strengthened the movie's hype.
'Many Saints' served as a prequel to the series, as it centered around the race riots in the 1960s and ’70s. Dickie Moltisanti, who became an uncle to Tony Soprano, held the lead role, as the film showed snippets of the characters that comprised the show that fans grew to love.

Saw.
Ray Ceeya (RayCeeYa) 6 months ago
I refuse to patronize any torture porn. The whole Saw franchize kicked off the worst thing to happen to the horror genre ever. We wouldn't have Human Centipede if it wasn't for Saw. It was a sudden race to the bottom to see who could make the grossest horror movie and I wanted no part of it.
The film featured actors like Screen Actors Guild award winner Alessandro Nivola, Jon Bernthal, and Goodfellas star Ray Liotta, among many others. However, it garnered predominantly unsatisfactory reviews.
For critics, the film was ‘overplotted’ and ‘much less interesting’ than its television counterpart. AV Club’s review particularly focused on the Dickie Moltisanti character arc.
As you continue scrolling, let’s liven up this discussion more. Are there any more films on this list that should be included? What titles stand out to you in a not-so-appealing way, for whatever reason? We’d love to hear about them in the comments!

Springbreakers with Selena Gomez. Up until the day the most stupid, vapid wannabe movie that had no right being as bad as it is. If it was a parody and didnt take itself serious then maybe.

Up. I watched it about two months after my Dad died. He had lost my Mom, his wife of 58 years two years earlier. He just never recovered. But what helped for a little while was he took in a feral cat that he'd been trying to befriend for several years. She finally agreed to come live in the house with him, and never went back outside after she decided she liked comfort. That movie hit too close to home. I get sick to my stomach just thinking about that movie.

The special effects were amazing. The story was told much better and far more convincingly in the old black and white films. The people were far more realistic. If you can handle the sinking of a toy ship in someone's bathroom sink, watch one of the old ones.

It's between 3 movies for me. 1: In The Name of the King. A poor LOTR ripoff with a surprisingly good cast, but it was incredibly dull to watch, and very stupid (though, director Uwe Boll's films are always bad). 2: The Host. A very generic and boring young adult film that I got dragged into watching with two friends from high school (one of which was a girl I liked). 3: Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. While an early example of 3D animated films... it wasn't a Final Fantasy movie. Just a generic Sci-Fi movie with the Final Fantasy name slapped on there to try and get more ticket sales.

Forgot another subsection... most live action anime films. The only real good ones that I've enjoyed were the live action Japanese Death Note films (not the Netflix one), and the Rurouni Kenshin films. The worst ones in my opinion are Attack on Titan (wrong setting, rushing through too many plotpoints, bad CGI, and removing iconic characters), Netflix's Death Note (bad characters, more "Final Destination" than a thriller like the series, and wasting the brilliant casting of Willem Dafoe as Ryuk), Fist of the North Star (terrible fight choreography for a martial arts series, and full of bad 90's schlock), Dragonball Evolution (what hasn't been said about it?), and G-Saviour (hurts especially if you're a Gundam fan like me).

Let's see. Dark crimes. Deadgirl. Shivers. Last house on the left. I spit on your grave. Black mirror because of the pig abuse. American pie. Season 3 of Sleepy hollow. Season 2 of American gods. Most Adam Sandler films. Most Seth Rogen films. Milo and Otis because of the animal abuse. Most horror film remakes. The Others aka the most boring movie I've ever watched.
Bouche and Audi and Shyla, Oh My! 6 months ago
Even before I knew of the abuse, Milo and Otis struck me wrong. Otis nearly died several times trying to get to Milo to save him. When Otis finally caught up, Milo couldn't have cared less. He just sauntered off and abandoned his best friend. When I found out about the abuse, I wasn't that surprised. People who that badly misread cats have no empathy for animals. No empathy=do whatever it takes to get the shot.

Most Adam Sandler films. Most Seth Rogen films. Milo and Otis because of the animal abuse. Most horror film remakes. The Others aka the most boring movie I've ever watched.

Even before I knew of the abuse, Milo and Otis struck me wrong. Otis nearly died several times trying to get to Milo to save him. When Otis finally caught up, Milo couldn't have cared less. He just sauntered off and abandoned his best friend. When I found out about the abuse, I wasn't that surprised. People who that badly misread cats have no empathy for animals. No empathy=do whatever it takes to get the shot.

How about The Cat in the Hat movie. Thought it was dumb. I didn't think thing 1 and thing 2 didn't translate very well to the big screen. Made the girl in the movie a snotty kid. Walked out about half way through. That was the only movie I ever walked out of. I even heard bad reviews about it but I thought I would give it a shot.

"Hardly Working" starring Jerry Lewis was the worst comedy I had seen up to that point. It was the only movie I have ever walked out of in pity. The jokes just didn't work.

I go to a lot of horror movie festivals and I have 2. Number one The coffee table... It's so sad and horrific though about it for days. Number two. Vile.... complete shite walked out, universally agreed by most frightfest attendees to be the biggest turd ever shown at the festival.

Back in the 70s Gene Shalit's review of "Freebie and the Bean" went something like this: "Only go see this movie if you have no hobbies, it's hot outside and the theater is air conditioned, and someone else buys your ticket."

Cruella. That was the biggest pile of horse s**t ever made. Left after 20 mins. I'm not spending my only date night with hubby on that trash.

It's a Disney life action movie, they are all only made for void cashgrabs.

The Mel Gobson movie Payback. The premise is Mel was robbed of $50~ and he tracks down mobster to get the money back. Dialogue was bad, the premise inane, and some of the acting was hs level. The theater was packed. I was sitting in the middle of the row. If I could have, I would have walked out.

The Wizard of Oz scared me as a child. I will admit to never having seen the movie from beginning to end I've only watched some parts. Those monkeys...eeeekk! (I was a very sheltered child.) My brother used to tease me about it for years, probably up into he passed way too young. My sister, too. Meanies!!

There are two films I never finished watching and have no intention of ever finishing: Queen of the Damned and Eyes Wide Shut. And the one movie they will show me on repeat if I go to hell is Izo.

Got a new one, I doubt very many people have seen it: Teeth. It's about a woman whose V has teeth. Yes, you saw that right: her downstairs cleavage has a full set of teeth, and bites. Beware.

I've only ever walked out of one movie in under 5 minutes and fortunately I've managed to block its title out of my mind. I went with friends without doing any research and its opening was so violent that it triggered my memories as an Army medic. The theater was very understanding and gave me my money back.

The Black Lotus. Netherlands made total formulaic rip-off of a Jack Reacher movie, terrible dialog and acting.

Nacho Libre. Walked out after about 15 minutes. Went with my bf at the time as a kind of date/can we still make this work. Maybe that was why I hated it

"A Chorus Line" ... great stage musical, a classic all-time stage phenomena. But, the filmed version ... OMG! A complete train wreck.

The movie "Se7en". Aside from the fact that I always hated Kevin Spacey and found him creepy, that movie traumatized me - and I was an adult when I watched it! Went with a male friend to Sandton City when they still had movie theatres, and after the movie we walked out without talking and got into the lift (the old Sandton City lifts had mirrors in them) and our eyes were just HUGE. Hell no.

My worst, just because it was a boring, terrible movie, was Autumn in New York. Boring, no character chemistry, little discernable plot.... We ended up going MST3K/Rifftraks on it.

Some times I put on a throw back to see how it has aged. Even the terrible movies can be highly entertaining.

I do like watching some older films from time to time, too. Usually the Rocky series, the original Star Wars films, the James Bond series, classic westerns, or Akira Kurosawa's films are what I watch. I can still watch them even though they haven't aged well.

The one l can't rewatch because of how hard it hit me (pun intended) is Million Dollar Baby. It's fantastic but l don't think l can go through that sadness again.

Supernova (2000). We were given free tickets to this movie when I was in high school. It was painstaking to watch it. You know what's going to be bad when even the studio said this movie is not going to make money and The film producers demand to get removed from the film including Francis Ford Coppola.

"Painstaking" means "meticulous", as in "he was a painstaking proofreader"

Never walked out of a movie intentionally. But the one I wanted to so badly was High-Rise with Tom Hiddelston. It wasn't terrible, just oh so fücking boring.

The only time I left the cinema before a movie ended was when "The Other Guys" was shown - such a stupid movie, especially Will Ferrell's character was so annoying with the "humour" they wrote for him

Nah. I watched this in a crowded cinema and you could sense the desolation in the crowd when he loses Wilson. You could almost hear the click in their heads thirty seconds later when they realised "Hang on...it's just a fuc*ing volleyball!". Hanks is a powerhouse in that film.
