Was it The Return ?

I don't think I have ever walked out of a movie, maybe this is somthing he does a lot, or maybe it was just that bad, but I recall his decision to leave was affected by peer presure...

Anyway, I'm suprised there is so much positive energy for this flick here to be honest. I've only seen the trailer and wasn't interested in it one bit.
Yeah, that was me - we might have got about half an hour (peeled just after the bad guys got to the house). You're right on the peer pressure part...but I still wasn't too pissed about missing it.

Personally, I'll usually stick with a movie no matter how awful it is. I can only think of maybe 3 movies that I've stopped mid-viewing, and I almost always revisit them at some point. But I went to this one with a group of friends, 2 of which were very squeamish girls. They left right after the rape scene, leaving me and one other guy. We watched another 10 minutes or so, looked at each other and figured it really wasn't worth sticking around.

Based on the film's own merits...it was pretty awful, but I still would have normally watched the rest (if not just for the fact that I bought a ticket). But compared to a night cruising around town with friends - no contest.
