About this movie

Eli walks alone in post-apocalyptic America. He heads west along the highway of Death on a mission he doesn't fully understand but knows he must complete. In his backpack is the last copy of a book that could become the wellspring of a revived society. Or, in the wrong hands, the hammer of a despot. Denzel Washington is Eli, who keeps his blade sharp and his survival instincts sharper as his quest thrusts him into a savage wasteland... and into explosive conflict with a resourceful warlord (Gary Oldman) set on possessing the book. "We walk by faith, not by sight," quotes Eli. Under the taut direction of the Hughes Brothers (From Hell), those words hit home with unexpected meaning and power. 2009 ALCON FILM FUND, LLC

It's perfect and probably our future. The plot is brilliant and so true. Religious must hate this. It puts religion into power (and that's what it really is). Actors are chosen with care and they did the perfect job. Just a movie? Well not sure. Our future.

What a twist !!. The type of movie that makes you rethink the whole movie when it's finished.
