She's trying hard to be funny but it falls flat.

Not gonna lie, I thought these were pretty funny, if rather exaggeratory of Rand's views.

She's trying hard to be funny but it falls flat.

Many of these movies came out decades after Rand's death -- that didn't clue you in to this being a satire?

Sorry to bump. I loved this to begin with, but I just watched the Lego Movie and there's a golden opportunity for an Aunusual Rand review in there:

It is good that they get rid of the obtrusive government that doesn't allow creativity to freely flow, but it's foolish to think everyone is capable of that level of creativity necessary to build society. 2.5/4
