Lord of the Rings, all of them... just an agonizingly long, unnecessary drag. On top of being completely unrealistic, it’s a total disaster. Honestly, those movies are my go-to cure for insomnia.

I think the movie is called U-571. Tried watching it twice, but I guess I just killed myself from boredom and shut it off.☕

Fight Club - passed out midway
Transić 2 - started watching, but shut it off because the CAM version was trash. Might give it another shot sometime
Endless Day- tried starting this three or four times, but never actually made it to the credits
The Day After Tomorrow - 🤮
The Day After Tomorrow- fell asleep once, then tried again but there were no subtitles, so I just gave up

I just remembered yet another Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom that I haven't actually finished watching.

S. Darko - honestly, that movie was such a drag. I have to admit, the original Donnie Darko was actually kind of interesting.

At the cinema:
Terminator Salvation - honestly, I walked out halfway through.

I have a tendency to watch quite a few films only halfway through if they fail to capture my interest. Here is a selection of titles that fit that description:
Transformers
27 Dresses
Beverly Hills Chihuahua
Disturbia
The Return (2006) - A rather bleak film starring Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Suburban Girl (2007) - A mediocre romantic comedy/drama featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Georgia Rule (2007) - Lindsay Lohan attempts to command the screen in this unremarkable drama.
Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle
I Am Legend
Hancock
Iron Man
Wanted
Vacancy
Snow Cake
Fido
The Dead Girl
Pretty Persuasion
The Mist
1408
Wrong Turn 2
Wind Chill
Silent Hill
Hitman
Resident Evil

Scoop

😲😲 I don't know, maybe you just haven't seen it, but how can anyone skip Transformers? It's easily the best one.

Man, Australia... after hearing all those glowing reviews, I was genuinely convinced this was going to be a masterpiece, but then I sat through it and—what an absolute disaster!

Whenever I sit down to watch a movie, I usually make a point of seeing it through to the end, so honestly, nothing stops me except for actually falling asleep... my best friend tried watching three different films and ended up nodding off all three times... I guess I'll give it another shot sometime... I watched Vanilla Sky and drifted off during the last half hour, so I think I'm done with that one... I was basically dozing off through Benjamin Button.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop
I tried watching this thing maybe five or six times, but it’s just so incredibly stupid, pathetic, and poorly made. Honestly, the main character is so irritating that I feel like storming into the theater with a machete just to slice everything up... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I hate this movie so much.
Anyway, I'm going to calm down now.

My cousin and I had been scrolling through reviews online, and honestly, everyone was raving about 1408, so we thought,
let's give it a shot and see what the hype is about.
But now that we’ve actually started watching it, I have to say, it is just incredibly dull—and I don't mean mildly boring, I mean truly, deeply tedious.
My cousin and I are both basically nodding off mid-scene right now. 🙂
We eventually woke up a little while later only to realize the movie was still going.
I can say without any exaggeration that I have never sat through something quite this bad in my entire life. 🤮🙂🙂

I actually had to turn that one off halfway through. When the US government decides to call up a bunch of high schoolers to save the world, the logic just flies right out the window. Total nonsense.
I’d probably throw Lucky Number Slevin in there too—the plot gets way too messy for me.
But if we're talking about movies I couldn't even finish, this one takes the prize.🤦

"Amelia" - somewhere around the halfway point, I realized I hadn't actually been following the plot for ages. Honestly, it started to physically hurt my brain trying to figure out what was even happening on screen, so I just shut the thing off. Personally? I found the whole movie incredibly dull and just plain uninteresting.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Honestly, that was my first time actually nodding off mid-movie while watching a download—which is saying something, because I usually have much better focus than that. It was just an utterly tedious experience, filled with action sequences that felt completely impossible and lacked any sense of realism.
As for whatever is playing on TV lately, I haven't managed to sit through a single film starring Kumars. I just can't stomach that kind of subject matter, so I end up giving up halfway through. Everyone insists I'm missing out on some absolute masterpiece, but there's nothing I can do about it; my preferences are set in stone.🙄

I’d say about 50% of movies are definitely worth the ticket price—things you just have to see, like Titanic... unless, of course, it hadn't been in theaters back then. In that case, the percentage shifts by about 30% in favor of those comfy, overpriced seats.

My ex was constantly distracting me while we were watching No Country for Old Men, which made it impossible to really sink into the film, so I think I definitely need to give it another watch on my own terms.

For sure. It would be a total shame to miss out on a movie like that.

Godfather 1 - I’ve seen it maybe 3 or 4 times, but never all the way through. Or maybe I just watched the ending... I can never sit through the whole thing in one go, and honestly, I just can't get into it..
Godfather 2 - I haven't even made it through the last half hour.. pretty sure I broke the tape halfway through😬
