23 Movies People Simply Could Not Finish

The sunk-cost fallacy is a powerful thing, especially when it comes to time. Don’t tell us it wouldn’t take a natural freaking disaster to wrench you out of a line you’ve stood in for an hour, two people away from your destination, if we told you that you could just get it online. Such is often true for movies, our longest popular entertainment medium. If you’ve sat through an hour of a 90-minute turd, it’s easy to tell yourself you can last another half hour to see if it ever starts smelling good.

Sometimes, though, you just can’t. No matter how much you’ve already endured, it’s like nails on the chalkboard of your brain, and you physically can’t withstand another second. If someone were using it to torture state secrets out of you, sorry, everyone, get ready to learn Dutch or whatever. When user Ramaal2000 asked r/AskReddit, “What movie did you start watching, then (say) ‘Fuck this, I’m not finishing this’?,” we all learned just how common that is.
