Beyond anything I expected, Go see this movie. For those of you who need flashing lights and loud noises to keep your attention, this movie is not for you. The depth of this movie is just mind blowing.

User review rating: 1 January 23, 2010

just silly.

User review rating: 5 January 23, 2010

Pretty good movie, better than I expected. So much like a total re-boost of The Road.

User review rating: 1 January 23, 2010

waste of money...story would have been good but was based on bible history warped into what people may have wanted to see in the 20th century, and what is up with the girl at the end?!!!! it should have ended with the twist.

User review rating: 1 January 22, 2010

If this movie was supposed to be thought provoking it missed its target. It was more mind numbing than thought provoking. I can't believe people are giving this movie 5 stars. I would give it zero stars. Total garbage!

User review rating: 5 January 22, 2010

A very good movie..makes you reflect on the way you live your life

User review rating: 5 January 22, 2010

An instant classic!

User review rating: 3 January 21, 2010

I like the idea of it all... guy on a mission, can't be stopped by anyone. But I have to say, I wasn't thrilled about the ending. While I understand the whole thing about "movies not being real", the ending just didn't really seem plausible. It was okay.

User review rating: 5 January 21, 2010

A must see! Finally a movie for people who are not afraid to do a little thinking.

User review rating: 1 January 20, 2010

This movie was terrible. See The Road if you want a good post apocolyptic thriller. Non existant plot and minimal action, not to mention rediculous and repitious movie cliches that are all to predictable and unbearable to watch as in other films. If you want to see Denzel Washington walk towards you in slow motion for 90 minutes, be my guest.

User review rating: 3 January 20, 2010

its a good movie!!!! i really liked the ending.

User review rating: 5 January 20, 2010

Hmmm.... can anybody say "Fallout"

User review rating: 5 January 20, 2010

I think its a great movie and will still be 10yrs from now. Great story and acting from the start. Action seens are as brutal as they come and the movie is not dull and boring like other big budget movies released over the last few years(ie. Transformers Series).Foward and to the point with story and action is how I like my movies thankyou!

User review rating: 5 January 19, 2010

Great for a thinker but those who rather flash without story will be disappointed. No it is not INDEPENDENCE DAY but then again, it is wasn't meant to be. The budget was very different on this film and Denzel's acting says a lot for a man whose role depended on his bodily language and a few very choice words. Those who hate this movie are just used to blockbuster films with glitz. This is a story with depth. Worth seeing. However, for those suffering from ADD/ADHD, give it 20min before you start snoozing or getting upset. Just pay attention and you'll be fine.

it's just ok - only a rental at best..

User review rating: 5 January 19, 2010

Excellent movie. Very thought provoking. Go see it for yourself, dont believe any negative feedback. This is a classic.

User review rating: 1 January 19, 2010

Absolute garbage. Extremely slow, one dimensional story line. Good symbolism, but horrbile acting on Gary Oldmans part. Mila Kunis is blah. If you think this movie is an action film you will be sadly dissapointed. nothing new here you have seen it before.

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

It needs to be seen more than once to really get it! It is a great movie and the plot should provoke thought and change.

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

A W E S O M E!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

The acting, the plot and especially the plot twists keep yopu on the edge of your seat. And if that was not enough, it is extremely thought provoking! A MUST SEE MOVIE!

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

The movie was much deeper than a mere movie. The Biblical and Spiritual symbolism was mind-blowing and if you didn't get it, you need to watch it as many times as it takes for you to understand the movie.

User review rating: 1 January 18, 2010

Wow. I really expected better. Riding the future of mankind (the plot) on the importance of the Bible is pretty weak. Oh just to let you know GWH I believe the guy your referring to is a skeptic not a cynic. There is a difference.

User review rating: 1 January 18, 2010

I expected more from these actors. There were some amusing parts but not enough to sit through a story that trite.

User review rating: 1 January 18, 2010

Waste of time and cost of admission.If you are a "believer",and don't use your brain ,you may find this film entertaining.A shame that acting talent was wasted in this film.If there is a Hell,I think that I sat through about 90 minutes of it!!

User review rating: 2 January 18, 2010

ZZZ...

User review rating: 4 January 18, 2010

Simple. Thoughtful. Nice little twist. A pleasant surprise considering the over saturation of post-apocalyptic films from 2009, this one held its own

User review rating: 1 January 18, 2010

The concept and the follow through of this movie was terrible. The concept wasnt played out well at all, and as much as I like Gary oldman this DEFINETLY wasnt his best role by far. You get past wicked fight scenes (and the hilarious old people) there was no consistent flow to the movie.

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

Not your typical action movie and there is an actual plot in this one. One telling line is when Eli says that before the war people threw out what they kill for now. A thought provoking look at the world post apocalypse.

User review rating: 1 January 18, 2010

it was so bad, i felt like a wasted the time at the theatres... if you like this movie i feel bad for you!

User review rating: 5 January 18, 2010

A really good movie of the apocalypse variety. Makes you think when it's said in the movie that before the war people through away what we kill over now. The religious element did not make me uncomfortable and at the end the bible is placed next to the Koran.

User review rating: 1 January 17, 2010

I am not a Christian and this is not the reason why I did not like the movie, although I do feel that it is a bit rediculous to think that without the new tastement there is no way to build a new world. The actions scenes were ok, however the movie was lacking depth and the walking scenes were way to long. I left this movie feeling like I've been brain washed.

User review rating: 3 January 17, 2010

Interesting story

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

it was great

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

Great movie! Very enjoyable. Crazy twist, but there better not be a sequal.

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

Absolutely stunning, it is as beautiful as it is philosophical. The oversensitive will shun it, but if you have an open mind you will enter into one of the greatest thought experiments since the Matrix. This film is DEEP.

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

Loved loved loved the movie. Definitely would see it again. And to the one that said why would the Bible be the book most coveted, why not?? It's the Bible! That should be enough to suffice!

User review rating: 1 January 17, 2010

garbage movie. expected more from denzel washington.

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

Purely amazing!

User review rating: 2 January 17, 2010

Wow Denzel had a bible he was transporting around to be reprinted. That's pretty much it a few fight scences, very one-dimensional I fell asleep for about 10 minutes at one point. I was sorry I woke up before it had ended.

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

this movie is so awesome and denzel washington is a really good actor

User review rating: 2 January 17, 2010

I should have waited till the movie was on DVD and save some money. Mila Kunis' character described it best when she said something along the lines of, "You hear a voice in your head telling you to do this? Did you ever think that maybe your just crazy?"

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

this movie was action packed, well written, and had a really interesting point that was being brought to our attention. a MUST SEE A+ movie

User review rating: 5 January 17, 2010

I highly recommend watching this movie, totally awesome!

User review rating: 1 January 16, 2010

Great movie. Denzel Washington gives a powerful perfomrance.

User review rating: 4 January 16, 2010

I'm going to have to say, it'll will make you think after the movie, but it was very good for what it was. Totally excelled my expectations!

User review rating: 5 January 16, 2010

I don't understand the negative critic reviews for The Book of Eli... This was an incredible movie that made you think as the movie progressed. Both my Girlfriend and I enjoyed this film.

User review rating: 4 January 16, 2010

User review rating: 5 January 16, 2010

A MUST SEE MOVIE. VERY DEEP, YOU WILL BE THINKING AND TALKING ABOUT IT AFTER, BUT DON'T JUST TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT IT. TAKE THEM TO SEE IT. GREAT MOVIE.
