Has anyone seen The Butler? If so, what did you think of it?

Thanks. I think I'll watch it over the weekend. The promos looked promising.

I really liked this movie. One of the few good ones for 2013 I thought.

For me, it was only OK. Mainly because I couldn't stand watching Oprah act! Not that she was bad---but she was Oprah! Also there are a lot of old film clips ala Forrest Gump. I was disappointed because I wanted to love it!

I wanted to see Oprah watching the Oprah Winfrey Show in the 90s. That would've been great.

Yes my husband and I saw it and we thought it was excellent and it should have been up for more awards than it was (is).

If you go to see this movie keep in mind that it is not a documentary. It is a work of historical fiction.
