The story and dialog are clunky. This is basically a ninety minute sermon. Nobody in real life speaks like this. It makes the story very unwieldy. The Galt hideaway is a huge disappointment. It's a bunch of ski lodges and cabins with a farmer's market. With all the greatest minds in the world, it needs to be a magical Tomorrowland. I was glad when Dr. Floyd Ferris brings out a Star Trek scanner but that's the only thing. Sure Galt has his motor but they don't let it be amazing. It's a horribly flat and boring first half hour. There is an interesting section where Dagny returns home to battle his idiot brother. However, even that section is messed up by simplistic ideas like Minnesota. Apparently Minnesota is the only wheat growing state. It only adds to the ridiculousness. It makes any theory advanced by this movie sound stupid. Then there is the final battle. I didn't know torture requires a complicated machine. It seems like a car battery and a jumper cable would have done the same job. It's also one of the worst guarded torture site ever imagined. It's an ignominious end to a poorly executed story.
John Gault is practical and elusive. Yet in the movie John (Kristoffer Polaha) can be easily found and it seems that he is into shock therapy. They make it look like he is into S & M.
Francisco d'Anconia is supposed to be Dagny's childhood buddy; now played (Joaquim de Almeida) at 50 looks more like Dagny's uncle; can you see her on his knee?
If you think the actors were a strange fit wait until you watch the story.
The only redeeming thing is it is better than not having a film at all.
With the ideas of Ayn Rand diluted in sub-par writing and below average acting, Atlas Shrugged: Who Is John Galt? became a perfect background for an afternoon nap. No pun intended.
Once again, i'm not sure why the producers insisted on making three movies instead of opting for a TV show. Nowadays this seems to be a gateway to a broader audience. Besides, the book Atlas Shrugged had enough contents and ideas for eight to ten one-hour episodes.

- TriviaThe container ship seen seemingly sinking in the opening monologue is the MV Rena, which ran aground on the Astrolabe Reef off the coast of New Zealand's North Island in 2011, due to a course change. The ship subsequently tilted to starboard and split in two, by which time most of the containers aft of the split (two thirds of the ship) had been removed or lost at sea. The aft two thirds of the ship, after being emptied, sheared off of the front section due to tides and bad weather, then sank beneath the surface. The front section's containers were removed, and then the rest of the ship was cut into sections to be removed by salvage.
- ErroresThere's a map of the US in the Taggart Railroad center. In the State of Missouri the cities of Springfield and Jefferson City are reversed in geography.
- Citas
[first lines]
Narrator: This is a story that begins on a warm spring night, at a meeting of the 20th Century Motors employees. It was a night I'll never forget.
Narrator: When the owner of the company died, his children took over and brought in a new plan to run the factory. The plan was that everybody would work as hard as they could, but share in their salaries and the profit based on need. That is, those who claimed they needed the money most, were the ones who got paid the most.
James Taggart: [at podium] This is a crucial moment in the history of this company. Now remember, each of us now belongs to the other, by the moral law we all voted for and we all accept.
John Galt: I don't. I don't accept it.
Narrator: His words caused confusion, but he stood there like a man who knew he was right.
John Galt: And I'm going to put a stop to this once and for all.
James Taggart: How?
John Galt: I'll stop the motor of the world...
