The Book of Eli

[BuddyLee]

I read a bad review about Legion so my lady and I decided to see The Book of Eli, which was pretty decent. The film is powerful at points mixing action with some great drama and a little comedic relief. The ending is also interesting...

You know you've found a superb film when it arrests your emotions.

What was your reaction when Gary Oldman's character finally opens the book?



I wanted to go back and rewatch (ala Sixth Sense) it with that new knowledge

I went to see Legion over the weekend. What a horriable movie.

I didn't expect as much. Usually I can guess movies in a heartbeat because there's little originality in the industry anymore.

Post-apocalypse, yes.

Atmosphere, yes.

Setting, yes.

Story, vastly different.



Since you brought up Mad Max, they're looking into making another.

I knew there was going to be a twist, only because i had heard a review before i saw it. I didnt expect the twist to be what it was though, especially based on all we had seen up until the big... "reveal".

Afterwards thinking back on it, Eli alluded to it in an earlier conversation, but still....DAMN!

Plus he's very keen on his senses throughout the film.

Exactly, but you (or I) didnt catch onto it at the time.
