Are these words proper?

I saw on a newspaper the other day a picture in which there lay several people covered by sheets which read: 'Greedy kills', and 'Bailout=bullsh*t'.
And I recently saw a movie in which there were dialogues containing words like 'fucking', 'son of bitch' and even 'asshole'.
while I feel the 'sh*t' thing is well acceptable, the last one really shows a lack of basic decencies.
How do you natives see these words in moives, and how do you feel about them?

Hi, They have certainly become more commnplace. generally speaking, I don't like it. Some people argue that it is OK, eg in a movie, to show how a character would naturally speak in certain circumstances.
