    Where do I begin?!?!

    This has to be the worst film of 2010 so far… It would have beat 2012 to the punch last year as worst film of 2009.

    The Book Of Eli is 80% Walking Broodily, 2% action, 2% entertainment and 16% Indoctrination.

    Yes, I’d expect this sort of tactic from the Scientology camp but not from the god squad.  Why make me sit through 2 hours of a man walking with very little entertainment.  Blatantly obvious attempts to push the message that god is almighty and good and his word is healing!

    The Book of Eli naturally follows Eli (Denzel Washington) through the wasteland of america.  A big cataclysmic event has wiped out the majority of civilization and now we’re practically back to wild west ways.  Outlaws and the road is a dangerous place to travel.

    Yeah yeah yeah… Eli has a book but someone wants this book, then a rather slow chase ensues and… do you know what? I just can’t be bothered… the film writers/director obviously couldn’t be bothered to provide us with a stimulating piece of cinema, so I can’t be bothered to provide them with a proper geek review.

    It was just tripe, the symbolism of a man dying on his knees… the book being the bible which I saw a MILE off and the fact that Eli kept insinuating he was driven by faith.  Come on man… you suck dude.

    The film sucks, just avoid it. I REALLY wish I had gone to see The Road now.

    Oh I forgot to mention, Eli completes his mission and dies.  That’s Gods great reward? You nearly die a few times, get sent on a dangerous mission and as a reward for succeeding I’m going to give you heart failure or maybe cancer?

    Wow… it’s like he won the lottery.
