In the apocalyptic thriller, The Book of Eli, Denzel Washington plays the lead character — a religious warrior — whose mission is to travel westward with a sacred book that will save mankind – The Holy Bible.
After the world had been devastated by war and societies lie in shambles, the remaining inhabitants are killing each other in desperate pursuit of the basic necessities such as food, water and shoes.
Eli, who answers the call of a higher power is directed — no commanded — to deliver the Bible to a permanent and protected location.
The Book of Eli much like I am Legend, Will Smith’s hit film of the same genre, is filled with intense action scenes and is another of Denzel’s must-see movies. –iesha daniels
