Zeitgeist - should I?

I just got it, Is it worth watching? The first few minutes are annoying and seem cheap as hell, is it some sort of conspiracy-propaganda film or is it interesting?

I liked it, if nothing else it gives you something to think about. Whether or not ALL of it is true I'm not sure, but still pretty interesting.

do not watch
instead, go to school
take classes on religion, economy, and history
profit
if you want to know what zeitgeist has to say, read about it on http://conspiracyscience.com/

No the first one isnt worth watching really, drab, dry, boring, mainly a bunch of speculation. Skip to the 3rd one if you havent already.

Because I am an insecure faggot who needs to be spoon fed what he should watch.
Or maybe because it seems like shit in the begining and I don't want to waste time with it, but I don't want to miss out on a potentially good movie. It just has that conspiracy-vibe to it, and I end up yelling at the screen in rage at the bullshit these movies present.
To bad, it sounded interesting...
Are you a turk?

Food Inc.. Unlike Zeitgeist, you can see the proof in this movie, just be prepared to fear grocery stores forever.

if it sounded interesting, you should watch it. you're letting others decide for you, i think that's true folly.
who said you're a spoon fed faggot?
watch Gasland if you want a documentary.

I felt the need to call somebody a spoon-fed faggot, and I was the only one that had any reason to be one...
What I was actually asking was if Zeitgeseist is one of those bullshit conpiracy movies that wants to be the truth but fails miserably, but I didn't want to offend the people who liked it, as some tend to be a bit fanatic.
Food Inc was good, I still love meat 
Will check Gasland out and the one about chaos, thnx.
Let me share some I've seen in the recent past and liked:
Kurt Cobain - About a son, watch even if you're not a Nirvana/Kurt fan, amazing cinematography
Derailroaded - fucking crazy

just watch the 3rd latest one instead the creator of the films has stated many times how he hates his first zeitgeist film and that its filled with a bunch of inaccuracies and is poorly thought out. he advises ppl against watching his first film because hes embarrassed by it
his ideas have evolved alot over time since he met Jacque Fresco and started talking about the Venus Project and the 2nd and 3rd movies are a lot better and focuses more on solutions in lieu of bombashing the government and conspiracies

If you want a good documentary about the secret history of Western religion - without the conspiracy bullshit - then check out The Pharmacratic Inqisition.
