The Book of Eli

The Book of Eli
Starring:Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, Mila Kunis
Directed by: Albert and Allen Hughes

30 years after an apocalyptic war left the earth scorched, Eli (Washington) wanders the land protecting The Book. Without laws to govern the land, small clans form and outlaws rule. Carnigie (Oldman) a well read leader of a misfit group knows the power that lies within the words of The Book, and he will stop at nothing to have it.

As far as post apocalypes movies go this one rates pretty low. There are too few action scenes to make up for the bad plot and story line. Once again we see Gary Oldman giving a stellar performance as the antagonist in the film. And I expect nothing less out of the performance of Denzel Washington. All in all I enjoyed the players, I just didn't like the game being played. I am going to have to agree with Owen Glieberman of Entertainment Weekly, "The Book of Eli" is like a movie based on a graphic novel you don't want to read."

The Book of Eli is a "Break"

Hello

My name is Marc and I am a movie addict.  I love going to theaters or sitting down and enjoying a DVD or even TV on DVD.  For as long as I can remember I have enjoyed the Horror genre but as a father of two girls I have expanded the variety.  My goal is to review new releases, both DVD and Theater, and help you make the night rather then break it.
