Movie Number 18 : The Book of Eli 2010

What to say, well, with my friend Kinga we did not know what to watch and with a misunderstanding we ended up sat in the comfy chairs in fornt of Denzel Washington .... Originally we wanted to see "all about Steve"( with the gorgeous Bradley Cooper)

So, dark, music starts ... movie is on.

Well, I guess I liked it ... but not entirely convinced, it is a genre that I never experimented before, and to be honest, if I did not have that cine card I probably would have never watched it.

So, the plot is : A lone man carries a book across a post apocalyptic country ( USA) in order to bring that book to a safe place where he will be protected and used to help people. Unfortunately, the path to the safe place is not as easy at it seems. Another man ( Gary Oldman) wants that book too, to become more powerful and dominate the destructed world.

The movie is really obscure, and bring you to reflect on "why they all want that book?". There is obviously a reason for that and you will have to watch the movie to understand.

It has been bit long on the first part of the movie, at the end of the day, he is alone and he does not speak much. But the combat seen, even if they are bloody, they still are good, and the background music relaxes you enough not to be sick.

I did not regret, but I don't think I will see it again as I would do for other movies.

Watch the trailer : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1037705/

Ephy !
