Have you set up 'timeoutlen' and 'ttimeoutlen' appropriately?

Vim in a terminal must parse character sequences beginning with <Esc> to determine when special keys have been pressed, for example the arrow keys, and these options control how long Vim waits before deciding that there is no special key code coming, it really was just an <Esc>. See the help for these options.

Also, note that the command line can be closed with <C-C> as well.
