Certificate: 15

Genre:

In the not-too-distant future, some 30 years after the final war, a solitary man walks across the wasteland that was once America. There is no civilization here, no law. The roads belong to gangs that would murder a man for his shoes, an ounce of water -- or for nothing at all. A warrior not by choice but necessity, Eli seeks only peace but, if challenged, will cut his attackers down before they realize their fatal mistake. It's not his life he guards so fiercely but his hope for the future; a hope he has carried and protected for 30 years and is determined to realize. Driven by this commitment and guided by his belief in something greater than himself, Eli does what he must to survive--and continue.

    The Smurf

    Terrible film, only reason it got 2 stars was because of Gary Oldman. Can anyone spare a few quid and get Washington a few acting classes please. You'd be doing the world a service.

    Really disappointing movie that fails to ever really click. The music score is quite dreadful and really imposes quite badly on the film. It gets a second star for an excellent effort from Denzel Washington (who I have no idea why he did this), and for having a few nice cameos. A serious missed opprtunity though.
