I sat down to watch Book of Eli, and made the mistake o listening to some reviews beforehand. It got some mediocre reviews so I wasn't expecting anything special, just perhaps to spend a couple hours relaxing on the couch.
Wow was I wrong!
I'm a fan of post apocolyptic themed stuff to begin with (Fallout, , etc.) but i was really impressed with how it was handled here. It wasn't something that people talked about on end, but you could tell it happened a long time ago and people are just dealing with it, looking for ways to get by. Eli comes into the story as carrying a symbol of hope and single mindedly carrying it west. There is some great character development and twists here.
This made it to one of my top 10 movies....pick it up!
