Saw Kick-Ass 2 (which DH wanted to see) because tickets to The Butler (which I wanted to see) had sold out. Kick-Ass was pointless and violent. Last weekend, we saw The Butler, which was interesting because I like history, but it started off promisingly, then lost steam. It also featured many celebrities for no apparent reason, which was needlessly distracting. They should've used solid characters instead. John Cusack as Richard Nixon, for example. Really? They couldn't find anyone better? Oprah did a good job, but not good enough that I ever forgot that it was Oprah.
