Not a theater walkout, but... We just tried to watch "Legend" with Tom Cruise, Mia Sara, Tim Curry, and directed by Ridley Scott. It was so jarring, shockingly bad we couldn't last past the 15 minute mark. The writing, the acting, the direction, the music (with bombastic synth stabs), and really terrible editorial/audio fx choices. Also, there is so many feathers just floating around. Honestly, I love b-movie fantasies (Krulletc) but this thing takes itself so seriously and is so cringingly bad we just couldn't get through it.

My friends and I walked out on that like 30 minutes in ... then it came through in the cheap seats 2nd run theater and we tried it again. Walked out after 35 minutes. Fool me twice? Lol
