A review "The Book of Eli"

Another post apocalyptic film that imo came across more as a kung fu western. Saw it today.
It was entertaining in that Denzel and Oldman were believable characters as were all the supporting cast and background extras. "The Road" was better than this one and I didn't much care for "The Road"

I was hoping for a script/story that had something to say but imo it fell flat and the ending seemed so contrived, lame and predictable after about 1/2 into the film.

Music was good, shot in New Mexico and hired a lot of local crew and extras [moi]
but I can't recomend seeing this movie on the big screen. Wait for the DVD or Cable and save some money. Sorry....
