With unflappable cool and surprising gentleness, Denzel Washington strides a bleak and barren world in The Book of Eli.

But when he arrives in what passes for a town in this dust-and-ash future, the power-hungry owner of the town’s bar, Carnegie (Gary Oldman, looking a million years old), covets his one important possession. (Spoiler alert, sort of: it becomes apparent pretty quickly that it’s a King James Bible.) Conflict ensues! Though the plot is simple and the “mystery” of the book doesn’t last long, The Book of Eli is carried along effortlessly by its star. Washington has always had a compelling mixture of authority and tenderness, and it’s this latter quality that makes this contribution to the testosterone-and-violence-drenched post-apocalyptic subgenre unexpectedly human. The script, while not particu (more…)

Maggie Smith, Laurence Olivier, and Harry Hamlin (one of these things is not like the others…) star in a toga-ripper about a valiant hero, capricious immortals, and lots and lots of giant stop-action monsters.
