Django Unchained - usual dangerous Tarentino shit. His PR machine has achieved one of the more remarkable conjobs of the last 20 years.

I was planning to go see that today at the $1.25 theater for $1.00.

Is it worth $1.00?

I wouldn't watch it again even if it was free and came with popcorn and a blowjob.

Zero Dark Thirty - utter crap. Bigelow is the most overrated director in the world. Yes, she's got a good rack, but good eyes is better for a film director.

Couldn't agree more. I can only assume that its inflated reputation is largely due to the topical subject matter.
Otherwise it's a completely forgettable feature.
