Have you seen the movie "The Butler" yet, and if so, did you like it?

Two days ago, I saw the movie “The Butler” (aka “Lee Daniels’ The Butler”). I loved it – the historical footage, the cast, the vintage sets and clothes, the lesson learned. It started out when a young African American boy lived down south, in the early 1900’s and followed him through his life, becoming a butler in the White House. He served 8 presidents, and in addition to following him through his family life and work, it portrayed societal and cultural changes during the various time periods (civil rights movement, Vietnam).

Many people are talking about it on social media, and I don’t think anybody that I know that saw it didn’t like it. Have you seen it, and if so, did you like it?
