Phenomenal! I enjoyed the movie so much I immediately bought the book. I related to the movie and the book. Amazing how the government wants to... nipulate and take its control over us similar to the portrayal in the movie and book. The latest example is the healthcare program—more big government clumsily trying to run a business. The government needs to teach people to fish instead of giving them a fi Full Review

Wow I am completely blown away by this film. It has to be one of the best one's I have ever seen. Cannot wait for part II.

Loved the political commentary, hated the movie. I can't say whether it was the acting, or poorly written screenplay that made this movie a waste of... 2 hours. I don't think I will be able to talk myself into buying, or renting part II. Just BAD! Full Review

I find that for a movie like this, it's best to ignore the horrible critic reviews. As someone has already said, most are libs. Incapable of grasping... a movie like this. That movie is fantastic and eerily familiar with things happening in the world right now. Even if some refuse to see it. I read the book because it was given to me by my mother and I wasn't disappointed. ********* the movie for yourself and make your own determination instead of letting other opinions guide you! Wonderful movie, I'll be recommending it to other youths like myself, they need it. Full Review

Though a bit stiff in the joints and acted by an undistinguished cast amid TV-movie trappings, this low-budget adaptation of Ayn Rand's novel nevertheless contains a fire and a fury that makes it more compelling than the average mass-produced studio item.Full Review

The story, a dystopian tale with heroes and villains and lots of triumphs and reversals, is so busy and so inherently interesting that the movie is entertaining until the finish - or the sort of finish. As only the first part of the story, Atlas Shrugged doesn't end, it stops.Full Review

Speechy and preachy and just a teeny-weeny bit naughty.Full Review
Carrie Rickey
Philadelphia Inquirer
The central battle between fearsomely independent corporate mavericks and hostile big government has been updated in a half-baked, unconvincing way that's exacerbated by button-pushing TV-style direction, threadbare production values and blah performances except for that of Taylor Schilling in the central role.Full Review

Atlas Shrugged: Part 1 is nearly as stilted, didactic and simplistic as Rand's free-market fable.Full Review
