drivel disguised as dialogue, but still entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (10 November 2018)

This is an entertaining movie in spite of the ridiculous dialogue. There are many examples of said stupid dialogue, one being when the people in the library are forced to burn books in order not to freeze to death and a woman, using a book to try to diagnose a sick girl, says that books are good for more than burning. They are literally all going to die if they don't burn something for heat and since they are in a library the items they have a profusion of to burn is , yeah, books! Doh! Don't get me started on the ridiculous emigration drivel the movie tries, with no success, to push. Anyway, I can't resist watching any movie with Dennis Quaid and Jake Gyllenhal and they really lift this movie.
