The Book of Eli is a movie directed by brothers Albert and Allen Hughes. The movie shows a post-apocalyptic world and has a number of influences from classis Westerns to comic books. Throughout the movie the action scenes are extremely well done and the direction is brilliant. In all the violence throughout the movie there is also a sacred message by the movie makers – the misuse of a holy book by religious people for their personal benefits.
The post apocalyptic world has made life extremely hard on our planet as the world has gotten a lot hotter after sun overtook our planet and caused a number of ramifications. A large number of people on the planet are left blind and the rest have to wear sunglasses all the time to protect themselves from the intense heat of the sun.
In the movie Denzel Washington plays the role of a loner named Eli who is wandering the desert and fighting a number of bad guys including some cannibals. He sees a small town on his way west and stops to have a glass of water the bar. But during his short stay at the bar he gets into a major fight at the bar.
After the fight he is greeted by the town chief who wants Eli to stay in the town with them as he is very impressed with Eli’s fighting skill. To seduce Eli into staying the town chief makes a woman named Solara, over whom the fight in the bar breaks out, seduce Eli to stay in the town.
The movie gets intense as the chief wants something Eli has and Eli has to fight with all his might to protect what he has.
