This film is the greatest expression of the African American struggle.

Denzel, Duvall, Woods and Liotta all deserve better.

This whole post-apocalyptic thing is getting old

I hate to be a whiner, but an awful lot of The Book of Eli - not the plot but some of the elements and inhabitants of the barren, broken world - are blatantly ripped off from Cormac McCarthy's The Road. The Road is way better. Read it. On its own terms, The Book of Eli isn't a bad film, it just kind of devolves into nothing special from an interesting, religiously inspired premise. I liked Denzel and Oldman in this - they didn't create iconic heroes or villains but they were fairly charismatic and they squared off very nicely. The action was no better than ok, but it was diverting. The end of the film had a nice twist that was completely unnecessary but also very much caught me off guard. The best thing about this movie were the incredibly striking visuals and landscape created by the Hughes Brothers. Two thumbs up to the art director of this movie. The Book of Eli is mildly engaging but it eventually becomes a pretty standard chase/action movie, which robs it of any real soul or memorability. And it was blatantly ripped off from Cormac McCarthy. Just saying.

Who knows what will come at the end of the apocalypse. this movie will give you one way. Little boring, but still worth it.

As someone who participated in college debate and is still very involved in the scene, I am thrilled to finally see a movie that accurately depicts the activity.

although I rate the film 4 doggy bones I would have love to see more action and complications. Denzel was great as usual, he's so #!@%*# sexy!

Denzel dazzles in gangster, a gritty tale of drug trafficing during the vietnam war. Lookout mob, here comes Mr. D!
