Atlas Shrugged 2
There must be an optimal solution to that catastrophe that is related to the collapse of the economy. Unemployment reaches 24%. Gas is $ 42 per gallon, and railways are the only means of transport. But perhaps there is an optimal solution to be discovered by Dageny Taggart, managing director of Taggart across continents, by solving the escalating energy crisis by issuing a prototype of an engine that draws energy from static electricity. It seems to be a difficult task and a race against time may change things or change the world.

The Bad Boys II of ****ty propaganda films, morally and aesthetically corrupt yet compulsively watchable in the broad strokes. Somewhere, in heaven, Eisenstein is laughing. Hard.
