    For me it would have to be Congo. I didn't have a car and couldn't reach my ride so I walked in and out of that film about 12 times. It sucked hard.

    Spider-man 3

    The Brothers Grimm

    Master of Disguise...I only movie I ever considered asking for my money back.

    It's rare that I see any movies at the theatre any more, since there's so much crap, but the ones I did see that I wish I hadn't...

    - The Reader - Was there with a date and some other friends, so I couldn't leave. What a godawful movie. Beyond the cheap ploy to get pathos and Oscar nods (hey, look, it's the Holocaust!), and the atrocious acting, it was boring and predictable and dragged on forever. I also had to restrain myself from laughing at what was, I'm assuming, supposed to be one of the big, serious lines ("I learned to read.") because it was delivered with an extra serving of ham.
    - X-Men 3 - I hated the first two X-Men films after finally getting around to watching them on DVD, so I figured that it might help to see the third on the big screen to get the impact of the special effects. It did not help. At all.
    - Star Wars prequel trilogy - I didn't like the original trilogy, but decided to see these anyway, thinking it might be worth checking out the special effects on the big screen. It wasn't.

    The Blair Witch Project. Not only one of the worst movies ever, but someone in the row behind me farted throughout the entire movie... Nasty, sulphur stinking farts that almost made me gag...

    Jurassic Park 2
    Star Trek: Insurrection

    Every Batman movie from Batman Returns until Batman Begins.

    I've seen plenty of bad movies, but between having once been an employee of a movie theatre and pirate sites, I saw plenty of them without paying.
