Book of Eli

The Book of Eli

In a post apocalyptic world Eli walks across the wasteland that once was America. Empty cities and broken highways are the marks of catastrophic destruction. There is no civilization here, no law. The roads belong to gangs that would murder a man for his shoes or an ounce of water.

But they are no match for this traveler.

A warrior not buy choice but by necessity, Eli (Denzel Washington) seeks only peace but, if challenged, will cut his attackers down before they realize their fatal mistake. Nothing and no one can stand in his way. He must keep moving to fulfill his destiny.

It has been a long time since I saw a movie especially an action film that had a surprise twist at the end that I did not see coming long before it got there. 'The Book of Eli' is a violent graphic movie and is not appropriate for anyone under the age of 17 due to the violence. Yet even with the violence of the movie I still enjoyed the movie and would give it a 4 out of 5 stars.
