I enjoyed the setup to The Giver, but quickly the story became implausible, to the point—in the last half hour—of risibility. I mean, really, could you hike over hundreds of miles of desert and deep snow (in Utah, where presumably both exist at the same time) without food or protection with a baby in arms? That it turns into a big chase shows that the creators didn't know what to do with the potent question: what is memory, and what's the point of remembering? I felt my time had wasted.
