i've done this on more than one occasion...
Did the theater personnel cater to all the film goers who were not happy with the film? How can they tell who is sincere about their experience and who isn't?

Just thought of this. Vipul and I walked out of Once Upon a Time in Mexico a couple of summers ago and we didn't ask for a refund. We should have. I've only walked out of a movie once but next time will be sure to try this out. For some reason I seem to have this idealistic 'faith' in the medium and think that perhaps if I tough it out, the end won't disappoint me too royally. Oh wait, I also walked out of Harry Potter....
