Oh come on, the movie wasn't that terrible. I saw it yesterday morning in a completely sold out theater (every showing has been sold out so far, with a line around the theater of people trying to get in).
My "exit polls" (overhearing people talk about it as we all shuffle out) indicate that most people enjoyed it.
Sure it wasn't transformers, it was slow (but somehow not slow enough), and not very nuanced (the dialog the article is talking about), but it was an alright way to spend 105 minutes.
If you're a fan of film, I think you should go see it, if for no reason other than to try and see how the producers are trying to translate the story to film. It's also pretty culturally significant.
Hopefully with enough interest (and money) the second one will be done properly.

- Tycho 16y agowell the discussion about the film on objectivismonline.net has been mostly negative in the lead up to release. i think fans of the book are more likely to slaughter it for blowing a glorious opportunity to bring the philosophy to the mainstream.
- icey 16y agoErg, sorry for being a deletionist. On reread I noticed my statement wasn't very well thought out. Didnt think that anyone had seen it yet :(
