Good overall but think they could've made Mile Kunis look less Hollywood in the environment they were trying to portray. Action was pretty good too.

why??? does everybody have to walk around with dirt and grime all over them. cant somebody keep themselves relatively clean....LOL

JK man I am just making a stink in here. I have not even seen the movie yet...LOL

If she is doll faced its because hollywood can never really make a realistic movie. Bad guys will always look bad, the hero will always have nice teeth and the damsel will always look good. they make movies to appeal not only to our senses of sight and sound but also to our psychological nature as well.

It was pretty good, with a neat twist right at the end, but some issues were severely jarring.

Her whole outfit would not be so new 30 years after all industry stops. Neither would she be so sweet and innocent growing up when and where she did. Also I can't possibly imagine an iPod working for 30+ years. Mine died with much less use than that! And if you were walking for 30 years, don't you think you'd be making your own shoes by then? And if you finally had THAT book don't you think you could learn to read it, given a few lines that everyone above a certain age knows? And a crank operated Gatling gun?...

Oh, and I thought Gary Oldman phoned in his performance. Not that he was bad but he wasn't the uber-scary psycho we all know he is.

I would love a new visit from his character in true romance or the professional.

I love this Book of Eli. I am so amazed by the movie….Denzel Washington is still the best.
