This movie really captured me in so many ways. When I went to go watch the movie I expected to see another normal action movie, although I liked the idea of an post-apocalyptic world, it just seemed like another one of those end of the world scenarios. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Now one of the things I liked best was the landscape, the directors really captured what it would have been like in a world torn by war. There were broken down houses, people struggling for food, raiders and thieves at every turn. If there’s one thing I like about a movie, it’s how realistic it is. The special effects were almost non-existent, apart from a few big explosions don’t expect the sky to be falling. Denzel Washington and the other actors did a great job portraying each of their individual roles. There was no extra guy who didn’t need to be there. The overall plot is pretty interesting, it’s basically about a man named Eli and he has the last bible on earth so he’s trying to get it somewhere safely through this post-apocalyptic world. Even though some parts were pretty gruesome, it all goes along with the effect of the movie. What I find amazing is in this movie there was a lot of praying, most of the audience in the theater shifted uncomfortably in their seats but I think it was a very bold thing to do, nowadays you don’t see lots of movies that have a clear message or something they firmly believe in, it’s just there to entertain you. The directors of this movie weren’t afraid to make a great movie and base it on something they actually believe in. There is a strong hint that God has a big part to play in this movie. If you enjoy some epic battle scenes, a good mystery storyline, and some realism then I recommend you watch this movie.
