This isn’t about me (subject line notwithstanding), it’s about “City of Ember.”
Before I say anything: no, I haven’t read the book, but intend to soon, and yes, there may be spoilers here if you haven’t read it nor seen the movie. Be. Ware.
We watched this again last night, having seen it at the movies. I absolutely loved it. Of course, I love most post-apocalyptic movies, they tend to fit my cynical worldview, but I loved this because the kids are willing to outsmart the adults.
I especially loved the scathing take on American society. (I’m not sure if it’s so blatant in the book, which is part of why I want to read it). I’ll put the rest inside so you shouldn’t stumble across it by accident.
