In 2013, there are no highways, no I-ways, no dreams of a better tomorrow, only scattered survivors across what was once the United States. Into this apocalyptic wasteland comes an enigmatic drifter with a mule, a knack for Shakespeare, and something yet undiscovered: the power to inspire hope.

Who will be responsible now, for these wayward children?
That's a phrase that's in the book, but not the movie. I liked David Brin's tale of the communities growing up from a near-apocalypse and the conman, "Gordon Krantz."
When I first saw the (overlong) movie, I was disappointed and felt Responsibility had been tossed aside. However, this tale of a traveling Shakepeare-mangler grew on me. David Brin himself defended the film, saying that the resolution of the battle between the Holnist/Survivalists and the postal carriers was good.
Our drifter, accompanied by a mule, visits communities and puts on a "fractured fairy tales" version of Shakespeare for a meal and a night's lodging. …

This movie fits firmly in the "it's so bad it's good" category.
It's so outrageous, that you just have to see how it's going to end up.
The dialogue/scripts are woeful... but they are delivered with such passion that it almost leaves you breathless.
At the end of the movie, I had no idea what I had just watched, but definitely felt that I had been entertained!
Go figure.
