Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Lisa Miller (1) for Newsweek (1,534) on 15 Jan 2010

For those of us in the reading and writing business-for anyone, really, who loves the written word-the movie has a powerful resonance…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Lou Lumenick (2,103) for New York Post (6,650) on 15 Jan 2010

The film’s cool-looking desaturated look (not unlike “The Road”), plentiful action and Washington’s charismatic gravitas as the taciturn…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Neil Smith (699) for Total Film (3,532) on 15 Jan 2010

Denzel's latest is a sluggish affair weighed down by its lofty themes…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Christopher Tookey (761) for Daily Mail (UK) (1,461) on 15 Jan 2010

Ponderously paced and surely the final nail in the coffin of its once-promising directors, Albert and Allen Hughes, this is an extremely dumb…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By David Edwards (979) for Daily Mirror (UK) (1,133) on 15 Jan 2010

The problem is a ho-hum storyline that feels as if it's been strapped to a rack and stretched to breaking point…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Alex Zane (472) for The Sun (UK) (932) on 15 Jan 2010

This is more style over content and it drags towards the end. But as a slice of Friday night escapism, I'd see-li The Book Of Eli…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Nigel Andrews (1,359) for Financial Times (1,822) on 15 Jan 2010

Bad enough to be an end-of-genre movie... The script is a calamity, the direction worse…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Anthony Quinn (478) for Independent (UK) (2,026) on 15 Jan 2010

Just how badly does this guy want beatification? Perhaps someone should remind him that the Book in question mentions vanity as a sin…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Derek Malcolm (772) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 15 Jan 2010

Though they provide us with a fair number of fight scenes, explosions and suchlike, the Hughes brothers clearly think they are also Saying…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Alistair Harkness (1,042) for Scotsman (1,471) on 15 Jan 2010

Its loopiness is fervent, but the Hugheses really do know how to move the camera, and Gary Whitta's script offers up a steady parade of fanboy treats…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Devin Faraci (498) for CHUD (345) on 15 Jan 2010

Denzel's Eli is one of those characters who, when he faces off against the hundred enemies, makes you feel bad for the hundred…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Eric D. Snider (2,489) for EricDSnider.com (2,026) on 15 Jan 2010

It's shot with style, and the story has enough thrills and dark humor to justify one two-hour trip into the desolate future…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Clint O'connor (453) for Cleveland Plain Dealer (828) on 15 Jan 2010

A decent action-adventure flick aided greatly by its charismatic star…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Allan Hunter (1,486) for Daily Express (UK) (2,141) on 15 Jan 2010

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Matthew Turner (2,508) for ViewLondon (2,339) on 15 Jan 2010

As post-apocalyptic thrillers go, The Book of Eli lacks the emotional depth of The Road but it's worth seeing for both the performances and…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Avi Offer (997) for NYC Movie Guru (997) on 15 Jan 2010

Overstays its welcome and feels preposterous, sophomoric, pretentious and barely engaging thanks to the talents of Denzel Washington & Gary…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Christopher Smith (624) for Bangor Daily News (Maine) (624) on 15 Jan 2010

Denzel Washington does the best he can with the material, but The Book of Eli is so ingrained with over-stylization, self-indulgence and ridiculous…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)

By Jimmyo (378) for JoBlo's Movie Emporium (1,959) on 15 Jan 2010

There are a handful of moments that shine, but Eli is forgettable nonetheless…

Review of The Book of Eli (2010)
