Readers respond: What was the most disappointing movie you paid to see?
There’s nothing worse than being hyped about a movie and paying for it, only to be disappointed.
We asked the Over60 readers about the most disappointing movies they paid to see, and some were so bad they sent our readers to sleep.
Lynne Formby - Apocalypse Now. Dreadful movie. Only went because my husband wanted to see it and he slept through the whole movie.
Colleen Burgess - The Great Gatsby. Baz Luhrmanns version. Only movie I’ve ever walked out of.
David Oldfield Nettleton - La la land. Most over hyped movie ever. Also, a long time ago, Summer Holiday with Cliff Richard. I walked!
Lorraine Neasey-Dodd - Jaws at the drive in, I went to sleep lol
Jeannette Wylie - The Hustler, I walked out and left my boyfriend at the time to watch the rest by himself!
Linda Hopkins - Lala Land
Jennifer Sabatino - Fantasia, at the drive-in. Kids were leaving the cars to play in the playground, people were going to the kiosk to buy snacks out of boredom and then cars started leaving, including us.
Glenis Stevenson - Clockwork Orange.
David Briggs - Moment by Moment with Lily Tomlin and John Travolta. It’s the only movie I’ve ever walked out of.
Susan Clare - Starship Troopers, I left my husband to finish watching it half way through.
Val Goodwin - Picnic at Hanging Rock, the most boring movie ever
Mardi Sloan - Walked out of War of the Worlds starring Tom Cruise.
