I believe there are only two films that I’ve started watching but have never finished.

Being John Malkovich (1999) I remember hearing a lot about it but had never watched it. I told my wife it’d be great to see as it was included in our streaming services. I think we got 75% of the way through, but it was too obsurd for my wife, so never finished it.

Guns Akimbo (2019) Started watching it this weekend whilst I was waiting to be discharged from hospital. Knew it had Daniel Radcliffe in it, and was billed as an action/comedy. Thought the violence might be nicely stylised like John Wick. I watched 30 minutes, and was disappointed. Weirdly, too much mindless violence for me (I like JW!), and it felt like it rushed too fast into ‘give him guns for hands’.

Am I wrong about these films? Should I give them a second chance?

Are there films you wish you’d finished?
