  • I have a feeling this movie wasnt very good. I liked the book, but turning a great novel into a good movie is extremely difficult.

  • It's interesting to note that critics despised Atlas Shrugged upon its initial release back in the 1950s.

  • Love it! Critics have to running scared, after all a thinking public has no need to be told what movies are 'good' or 'bad' and what to think about them. Once again, reality is following what Atlas Shrugged shows (and predicts). If you see the movie, you will understand the absurdity of the critics statements and how they play right into revealing their true motives.

  • Brilliant! Taking two negative reviews, and using them as part of the promotion.

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • Absolutely spot on with greedy yes-men of the governmente, with slavish devotion to the fat funding checks to study things the migration of slugs and how it is being effected by human sniffles! Only a meager 100 MILLION dollar grant for that! The common rube wouldn't mind that would they?

  • I can't see how we win the battle for America while leaving the treasonous media in place. Right now it would be like having Axis Sally and Tokyo Rose giving us the news during WWII. Leon Trotsky called media a weapon of war no different than a cannon. I'm for free speech myself, but just like I wouldn't give my enemy a gun to kill me, I don't like protecting their right to ink. The 1st amendment is not a suicide pact. Down with the lying liberal media.  IMHO. You keep fighting!

  • This is the best voice mail to date. :)

  • I have not seen the movie, I dont understand this

  • @mrtoogie4 better yet, read the book.

  • @mrtoogie4 Many "unbiased" media critics went on an anti-Atlas attack blitz, demonizing the rational self-interest philosophy, and about 90% of them disliked it. Whereas, audiences that actually bought tickets and saw the movie, about 85% of them liked the movie and would recommend it to others.

    Does that help explain the voice mail from a character that asks, "What can you do when you have to deal with people?"

  • @Solverwiz The movie wasn't that good but hopefully it gets people to read the book.

  • @mrtoogie4 Read the book. Please. Please, for your own self interest read the book.

  • No one should be allowed to see this movie! Free choice has gone too far! - Cuffy Meigs.

  • I can just imagine Dagny confronting Stadler over this message.

    "Miss Taggart, you must understand, I had NO CHOICE! We need the people behind us? What can you do when you have to deal with people?"

  • soo perfect!

  • Funny use of language.
