Holy fuck, you mean someone actually watched this? And a fucking Socialist at that? Good Lord this movie was boring. The only people I found myself feeling anything for were the token homeless people the main characters were walking past in various scenes, and they weren't given any major roles. I found the actors to be terrible, and their characters to be pieces of shit. I walked out near the end, because my bullshit meter had just exploded over the whole "Government is only gonna allow you to make a certain amount of steel and we're gonna tax the fuck out of Colorado" part. From this whole part, I was came to the following conclusions:

A. Ayn Rand had no fucking clue how business works.
B. Ayn Rand had no fucking clue how the government works.
C. Ayn Rand had no fucking clue how REALITY works.

Seriously, if I had a dollar for every time I thought one of the above during the parts of the movie I saw (I ended up leaving about 5-10 minutes early), I would have been able to fund three different John Galt lines.

Also, did I just zone out and miss the part where Taggart Transportation International (or whatever the fucking train company was called) got a huge bailout from the government?
uhuh..

Anyway..


I Spit on Your Grave Remake - 6/10

Never saw the original, but the included trailer for the original looked a bit more interesting than what was to come later on. The Sheriff being a bad guy was blatant, the rape scene wasnt as disturbing as I was expecting, and the fact that she goes AWOL for a month and then comes back as the Jigsaw Killer's next protege just doesnt do anything for me. The special effects werent that great either (looking at you, stupid CGI crows).
