First and only movie my friends and I ever walked out of

I never walk out of movies.

I almost walked out of Eyes wide shut, and House of a thousand corspes (although watched it on dvd and it's far better than I gave it credit for the first time).

I've also fallen asleep during the movies: From Hell, V for Vendetta, and The Omen (2006)

We walked out of this thing about and hour in wondering what the hell we just put ourselves through. If I wanted to watch clips of snowboarding i'd search the net.

This movie up to the point I watched it to before walking out was the following:

1. Snowboarding footage
2. 5 Minutes of terrorists talking
3. Snowboarding footage
4. Snowboarding footage
5. 2 Minutes of terrorists talking
6. Snowboarding footage
7. Wasting time in a hottub
8. Snowboarding footage
9 screwing around at some factory
10. Left movie

Character development should never be done the way this movie had it

WORST MOVIE EVER.....I'd rather watch Day of the dead 2 or Crossroads or something

I haven't seen this movie, actually I've never heard of it.But you say you fell asleep during two of my favorite movies, and that obligates me to set you straight.From Hell was nothing but a masterpiece and so was V For Vendetta.How you are able to sleep through either of them more likely describes your lack of good taste rather than anything connected to these movies.I feel truly sorry for you and wouldn't wish to meet you even if I was on fire and you were a bucket of water.

If I may be allowed to throw in my two cents here:

I have seen Extreme Ops, and I can vouch for the original poster's comments - it's the worst movie ever made. Much worse that From Hell or V for Vendetta. Even worse than Pure Country or Hudson Hawk. Hell, it's worse Epic Movie, which is a brilliant cinematic comedy by comparison.

I saw this movie in theaters when it came out, with no idea what I was in for. We felt like taking in a movie, and this...thing was the only thing we hadn't already seen that looked interesting.

Hoo-boy, did I regret ever walking into that theater. I WANTED to walk out. I hated absolutely every vapid, soul-damaging, audience-loathing minute of it. Most of the movie just drifted about aimlessly without any real discernible plot of any kind. What little plot existed was paper-thin - the villains are just generic terrorists with no clear motivation that aren't scary, threatening, or intelligent.

Worst of all, it was BORING. An action movie that is boring has no right being called an action movie. Watching the action scenes, I got the feeling that I had seen it all before. I was struggling to stay awake throughout the whole thing. When it all was over, I wanted so badly to un-see that movie. Fortunately, I've forgotten most of the insipid details except the bare bones of this movie's awfulness.

My only consolation is that this movie bombed at the box office and has now been justly forgotten by our culture at large. Only the few who saw this pile of cinematic *beep* know the true abysmal horrors that this film contains.
