10 Comedy Movies Audiences Walked Out Of

10. Deadpool

When it comes to Marvel movies (even the ones that Marvel Studios don't make), walk-outs are to be expected, as many are still not wised up on the classic post-credits sting. But, in the case of Deadpool, the walk-outs came during the movie itself, not the credits.

Casual cinema goers are no doubt used to the superhero genre at this point, and it's safe to say that even at their darkest, these super-powered flicks are the kind of thing you can bring your kids to. Flashy colours, fun characters, goofy humour and only mild violence; it's the perfect family trip. But anyone who has seen Deadpool knows it doesn't fit that category.

The movie is a crass, vulgar, violent mess, which helped it become one of the most commercially successful Rated-R movies (15 in the UK) of all time. Unfortunately, a slew of parents thought it would be the perfect experience for their kids, only to become horrified by the shocking depravity on screen, causing mass exits around the halfway point.

Now, to Deadpool's credit, the actor behind the mask made a painstaking effort to warn parents not to take their kids to see it. Reynolds even wrote open letters urging parents to exercise caution. But, the message didn't reach everybody, and some kids saw things that weren't designed for their eyes.
