The movie was able to capture the theme of the book even though the book itself delved much deeper into the various characters lives, personalities and thought processes. Who is John Galt? I give it a rousing THUMBS UP!!!

My girlfriend and I stopped at the Tilted Kilt restaurant out in front of the theatre before the 1pm showing and I asked to be seated and served quickly because I wanted to get there early and not seated after the show began. To my amazement the young, seductively dressed waitress came to our table and aked "So your going to the 1pm showing of Atlas Shrugged? I'm jealous!!. She said the shows were sold out for the first several nights and people were coming in to eat and see the movie from all over central Georgia. It just seemed kind of odd to see this sexy, youthful, carefree type of individual take notice of the movie-- just s0mething I wasn't expecting. I will definately see it again in the theatre and as someone who NEVER buys videos/DVDs--I will buy this movie and watch it a few more times!!!!

Calling it's production and entertainment value into question to sway public opinion on the movie and to keep people from taking the time to see the movie. You just have to get your friends, neighbors and co-workers to see the movie and don't worry about what the hack, left wing media critics have to say.

Half of all government workers sit around with their thumb up their ass and the other half supervise the insertion.

The government distorts the economy by putting in place regulations that are designed to fix one problem and just create more, which of course must be fixed by additional regulations which distorts the economy in another way which much be fixed by more regulation , etc, etc, ect.

Liberals (and RHINOs) undermine the free market system , insert regulations to payoff groups and push their own warped agendas and then when their interference causes massive displacement in the free market scream from the rooftops about how free markets are the problem. In the same way global liberal elites sit back and allow great commanders-in-chief like Reagan and George W protect their asses from evil dictators and then scream from the roof tops (or with handing over the Nobel Peace Prize to a weak commander in chief) about how the ones who keep them free are ones that are the cause of all the problems in the world. While the US soldier fights real evil in the world--they are secretly wetting their pants while denouncing strength--they just wish they had one ounce of the greatness of a man like Reagan. They are really nothing but cowards.
