The critics savaged it and yet everyone who sent a revew into us loved it. That's because a large proportion of the the people sending in reviews are Rand cultists.

I read “Anthem” when it was an assignment for my high school English class over a decade ago. Of all the dystopian sci-fi novels I've read about a oppressive future society (Brave New World, 1984, Fahrenheit 451, etc.) hers was easily the worse with one-dimensional characters, boring writing, forgettable scenes, and a predictable ending. Having gotten a taste of Rand's so-called “groundbreaking” work, I have no desire to any more of her “masterpieces”.

The critics savaged it and yet everyone who sent a revew into us loved it I see a lot of films and that is pretty typial of critic vs viwer rating. Atlas Shrugged was in major cities, now it is in my state in the chain Flagship theaters-which was pretty quick considering how long I have had to wait for smaller studio films and then have to frequent a small independent theater to see them.
