The Hughes Brothers, directors of From Hell and Menace II Society among others, have created an interesting and thoughtful action movie, that also carries a message of faith and hope.
The action set-pieces are well handled, and the photography of the movie, is very well done.
While the setting itself isn’t particularly new, along similar lines to Mad Max and other movies of this kind, they still get some pretty impressive visuals.
They are also helped by having two of the best actors around in this movie.
Denzel Washington carries the movie easily and is also very convincing in the action sequences.
Gary Oldman as Carnegie gives a performance more in line with some earlier work, such as Leon than some recent performances but he is always worth watching.
The rest of the cast, led by Mila Kunis all give good support.

Eli (Denzel Washington) has been on a journey for 30 years, walking west across America after a cataclysmic war that turned the earth into a total wasteland.
The world has become a lawless civilization where people must kill or be killed.
The barren roads belong to gangs of cutthroats who rob and kill for water, a pair of shoes, a lighter, or just for fun.
Eli is a peaceful man who only acts in self defense, and becomes a warrior with unbelievable killing skills when he is challenged.
enjoy!
