The Book of Eli

[Hyfi]

I hated it, it took far too long to develop, and it just could not hold my attention.

Would it have helped if AJ played the part of Eli instead of Denzel?

It surely isn't one I would watch a second time either. My review was neither pro or con, just that I watched it and what it was about.

A truly awful movie, and this from an admitted sucker for the post-apocalyptic genre, in general.

I detested the Christian POV and the idiotic blind warrior schtick. It was just cliche piled on bible-thumping dogma, piled on cliche. A stupid, preachy movie that truly insulted my intelligence.

But heck, I bet someone liked it.

I never had the impression you gave an opinion by your words. I am not sure anything but a complete re-write and a larger budget could have helped this film.

I didn't care for it much. Too long, too preachy for too little payoff. Rent "The Road", far superior film with less religious mumbo jumbo to distract.
