Atlas Shrugged is an easily set aside motion picture.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 2, 2020

The very nature of Atlas Shrugged -- turning on its head all the typical clichés of who's a hero and who's a villain and its refreshing honesty about the way Washington works-gives it a certain liberating energy.

While they've produced a competently made film, they haven't pulled off a miracle. Atlas Shrugged is much as you'd expect.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 8, 2019

Every cult needs its own wacky trainwreck of a movie... and now the cult of Ayn Rand gets Atlas Shrugged, Part 1.

| May 21, 2018

The awfulness of Atlas Shrugged continues a trend, since the cinema has never treated Rand very well.

| Feb 28, 2016

Although it's not as bad as its trailer might suggest, this first part of a projected three-part series will probably please the already converted but bore and annoy just about everyone else.

| Original Score: C- | Oct 17, 2014

While staying true to Rand's vision, Atlas Shrugged: Part 1 suffers from poor directing and it lacks the sleekness it needs to connect with audiences.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 21, 2013

Atlas Shrugged is a passionless experience that feels like a 온라인카지노추천 movie/miniseries. It's flat, poorly plotted, thinly performed and dull to its core

| Original Score: 3/10 | Jan 29, 2012

To quote: 'The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often [leads] to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 16, 2012

This dubious distillation of Ayn Rand's objectivist philosophy is a glorified smack around the head with a sociology textbook.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Dec 31, 2011

Think of it as The Omega Code for corporations. There might be a good story in there if it weren't trying too hard to make a political point.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 13, 2011

Made on the cheap with no-name stars, this is no better than a stilted anachronistic curiosity, a low-rent version of the eighties' prime-time soap Dallas, with the industrial concerns and sexual mores of 1950s, all, somehow, set in 2016.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 28, 2011

A talky bore that spends too much time in wood-panelled offices and at chatter-heavy parties that were clearly shot on the cheap.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Oct 28, 2011

There is something inherently noble about making a movie that gets the audience to think a little deeper. A dose of clarity and a pinch of fun never hurt either.

| Original Score: C+ | May 31, 2011

... a respectful (and generally respectable) filming ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 3, 2011

You can feel them straining against the limitations--moreso than the budget, the time compression. They fought the good fight as well as they possibly could.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 2, 2011

Its underlying worldview has little to do with its failure.... this could've, and by all rights should've, been a 온라인카지노추천 miniseries.

| Original Score: F | May 2, 2011

Atlas Shrugged: Part I is in many ways charmingly oblivious to its inherent contradictions and the fact that its capitalist titans appear to be squatting in old, abandoned Dynasty sets, eating food-court baked potatoes.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 28, 2011

As timely as a Tea Party rally, Ayn Rand's novel finally reaches the screen - at least a part of it does.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 27, 2011

It has a story, I suppose, and it even kind of has conflict... Mostly, it has talking. Weirdly esoteric talking about weirdly esoteric things.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Apr 22, 2011
