The Book of Eli

1st of all,I want u to close ur eyes,imagine a world where only a few could read,books are considered as weapons of power and u have the knowledge of a book which so valuable that men would kill/ransom u for it.

That,my frens, is the plot of this movie. Simple,rite?

I like the movie although it made me yawn a few times,u'll get what they are trying to do at the end of movie. (so buy a cd and fast forward till the last 30 mins).

I think the ppl behind the movie wants to promote reading to the masses (after all, movies are a powerful tool of propaganda). But seriously, who knows with the weather going all weird,the knowledge that u have now could make u a powerful man.

So what's the Book of Eli? As cliche as it might sound,its the Bible,the last remaining copy of it which is memorized by Eli,word for word,verse for verse. The actual book is in braille so its useless to all except for those who know braille and guess what,in that post apocalyptic world,only a few know how to read braille.

So let's buy and read more books and take up braille too...
As all the wise men had said," knowledge is power".
