“In sumation[sic], I would give the movie two stars out of five.”
Ouch, 2stars out of 5 doesn’t bode well. I thank you though for an honest review. I will of course see the movie anyway. I want this to be a great movie but frankly I am skeptical. I can see this would be a hard movie to pull off in this day and age. I wish they would have put it in it’s original setting instead of attempting to modernize it.
I do not know when I'll get to see it. Hopefully in the near future.
Still, even the book itself written in the 1950s tended to ignore Television and jet planes, and other evidence of Progress. The book to me had the flavor of the 1930s which seems counter intuitive to produce in the era of Sputnik and Sound Barrier breaking.
I am saying that Rand herself used the same sort of technique in order to tell her story.
She ignored stuff, and that involved "the suspension of disbelief" was required in order to get her real message out.
