The Book of Eli

Hey All,

Took my little brother to see book of Eli the other night at the cinema, and i must say it was damn good. Some decent fight sense in it and i think it was well put together. There is a twist at the end that i just did not see coming :p

Considering what book the book actually is it wasnt forced down peoples throats at all.

Odies rating 3.5/5

Re: The Book of Eli

I enjoyed it, I have to admit I only wanted to see it because Gary Oldman was in it, but hey It was a good film. Oldman was amazing in it :)

Yeah the twist was great, didn't see it coming.

Re: The Book of Eli

Another post-apocalyptic wasteland, Id say most of the film was pretty dull and predictable, but the twist in the end was quite clever.

Mezz rating 4/10 Worth a watch if you like the genre and have nothing else to do, not worth paying for.

He's Blind, and the book is actually the Bible in brail. (sp?)

Re: The Book of Eli

Dude was blind the entire time :shock:

But how did he? That was awesome, I thought it was pretty cool, the slow pace added to it I felt much better then most movies coming out where it's action the entire way through and no actual build up of anything.

4.5/5
