I read a review of this film before seeing it that described the movie as “bad in a way only $150 million dollar can be bad,” and I’d have to agree. Far fetched, at times outlandish, but I enjoyed looking at Jake Gyllenhall, even if he made the bad decision of burning books instead of all those hardwood tables and chairs in the library. I mean really – paper over wood? Give me a break! Still, in the end, it was a great mind-numbing way to pass a couple of hours. I was definitely entertained.
