Obviously it should be translated as "Book of Eli". I don't know why most of them are translated into "Book of Eli" in China. The Chinese subtitles of the original BD that I saw translated as "Book of End Times" are at least in line with the world described in the movie. Another translation taken for granted is really helpless.

"The world after the nuclear war" is often depicted in literature, comics, and film and television works. The picture of this movie is very similar to the Japanese manga "Fist of the North Star" that I saw when I was a child. The gray tone, the desolate land, the ruined town, the living survivors and the violent gang... That night After 11 o'clock, I watched "The Great Fox Papa" again and planned to go to bed, so I clicked on the movie again just because my hands were itchy. At first I just wanted to try it for a few minutes. If it feels good, I will watch it the next night. As a result, I quickly looked in and couldn't let it go. So I saw it directly at 1:30 in the middle of the night... Basically, this movie was supported by the fame of Denzel Washington and Gary Oldman, and the action design of the Chinese Wuzhi is also good (it is said to be Bruce Lee's disciple). The theme of the film is just as the director mentioned in the behind-the-scenes interview: thoughts must be hidden in them, and they must be obscure. The more relevant information the audience knows, the more things they can learn from it. So, I don't say much anymore.
