An acquired taste, but well worth trying. Strangely stilted and formalist performances that somehow become compelling…

Excellent defense of economic freedom. Whatever your views on Randian thought(mine are negative) it is still essential for any lover of freedom…

Powerful stuff. The Book of the same name is a favourite with Stalkers and Serial Killers..! (This and Catcher in the Rye!!)…

Fades and splitscreens are clumsily done, but most other aspects of this film aren't too distracting…

Philosophically, I find Rand's work deceiptful and wrong...but the movie is about art and not compromising--on that level it works…

Strange, riveting, tragic, & fullfilling. A little on the humanistic side, but I still found it to be an interesting film…

Casting is excellent, except for Neal and Cooper. Script is excellent, but Neal and Cooper fail to make the movie live up to the book…
