Just came back from seeing The Book of Eli with Chidi...
This movie is shot extremely well....Of course, I must admit that I am partial to black and white..
The story of Eli is well thought out,in that it reaches a younger audience, as the significance of youth is it played out in the movie. Eli is untouchable because he steps with faith. Given all the souless movies out there and all the heartbreak and terror in the world, it's nice to have faith confirmed...even if it's through a movie. Hollywood's release, could not have come at a better time.
The acting was appropriate for the movie..I especially like the blind woman....And the little child shall lead them... Nice!I have to admit that the nemesis in story reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode... YOU"LL figure out which one...
I like the overall flow of the movie... it kept my attention..and frankly, since I live in California..I am extremely happy to see him head West...lol....So, much for the Bible Belt... Just...kidding_
The visuals were fierce...wow, I can't say enough about how the movie itself was shot... the somber black & white is clearly justified...
I truly recommend this movie... I believe the underlying premise..is clear.
Faith is more than ourselves.
Go see it!

I really enjoyed it myself as well. My brother and I were definitely watching to see Denzel in action, but the story line was well done. The acting and cinematography was excellent(Denzel). Overall the theme was what it was and even I an atheist was still happy with the message at the end of the movie. Cheers and go see.
