The placebo of the masses is family comedy. Zookeeper will not likely top the second weekend of Transformers 3, but it’s sure to be the number one new release.

Consensus

Below is a list of what we have come to a general consensus on. The number in parens represents the percentage of our contributors who agree with the statement.

Horrible Bosses: Our thoughts run the gamut, though we lean towards it could be fun even if not an Oscar contender.
Zookeeper: The Oscars will get this one absolutely right by ignoring it as we will.
Project Nim: The subject matter is certainly interesting and could be a fine Oscar contender.

Thoughts Not only no, but hell no. Not only does the trailer look atrocious, Kevin James is quickly becoming one of my least favorite screen presences.	Thoughts Belongs to the silly ass school of film-making.	Thoughts Comments Not Available	Thoughts It looks like too juvenile for my taste.
