So I went and saw the Book of Eli last night. I heard it was extremely violent, but I also a Christian movie reviewer also said "The Book of Eli is, perhaps, the most explicitly Christian film I've seen come out of the secular film industry since The Passion of the Christ. Indeed, it's something of a Sunday sermon wrapped in a Mad Max adventure."
So it was very violent, extremely violent, however if you can get past that the story is incredible! There were times where I got goosebumps from the lines, or I wondered how many people around me were believers and how many were not. Denzel often quotes straight scripture from the bible, and at the end it takes an incredible turn that no could've known or saw coming! I'd like to see it again!
And now since the Book of Eli has come out, everytime we introduce our little baby boy to someone they automatically say "Ohhh, the book of Eli! Its a great movie!" Nice. However I guess now that people know Eli is pronounced Eeelie, and not Ellie people will be able to get his name straight! Thats one thing I never thought people could mess up, a simple 3 letter name, however trust me they can do it! Our little boy is also called Ellie all the time!
So follow up to my eye appointment, my eyes are 20/20. When I had my laser eye surgery through Clearly Lasik, they were better than 20/20. I guess I cant complain that my eyes are so good. Its a blessing!
