God wants whoever perishes must first make it crazy

This film is very pure, just one story.
But these four stars are not for the emotional and righteous nature of the Chinese martial arts film in the film, or absolute loyalty to the faith. Although many people say that this is a religious film, it is actually a martial arts film wrapped in science fiction and western films. Under the coat.
Jiang Wen has made a movie of the same subject, called "Heaven and Earth Heroes", of course, the filming is weaker than this.
Because Lao Jiang didn't photograph an important meaning, this meaning made me quite praise "The Book of Avery".
For me, the highlight of this film is not on Mr. Dan Su's super unknown knight, but on Sirius, the number one villain. This guy spent a huge amount of money for a book with huge benefits, so that the gang could not maintain the normal operating turnover and collapsed.
This principle shows that no matter how smart a person is, he cannot understand the will of God. It always has a way to find your weakness. The weak can defeat you without you even knowing it. Sirius is one of the few people who is soberly aware of the great power of the Book of Avery. It is not unwise, but his wisdom makes him forget that no matter how strong his strength is, it is limited. If he consumes too fast, he will not only gain irreparable losses. , But will contact the disintegration of the entire organization.

Of course, another more popular saying is: In order to obtain huge potential benefits, Sirius’ company invested a lot in a new product. Due to the shortage of capital chain, the turnover was not open, and the new product was delayed in launching and bringing profits. , So it was ordered to liquidate...

The photography of the entire film obviously intentionally reduced the color saturation, and at the same time, it excuses the overexposure of the sun, creating a kind of doomsday atmosphere, and also bringing texture to Dan Su's image.

As for the final ending, I seriously doubt that there will be a sequel to this film. I don’t know what it will be called the book. Of course, it may also be called "Solana’s IPOD"...

The Book of Eli quotes

  • Eli: They say the war tore a hole in the sky, you've probably heard the stories.

    Solara: Yeah.

    Eli: The war tore a hole in the sky, the sun came down, burnt everything, everyone, I wandered, I didn't really know what I should do or where I was going. I was just moving from place to place, trying to stay alive. And then one day I heard this voice. I don't know how to explain it, it's like it was coming from inside me. But I could hear it clear as day. Clear as I can hear you talking to me now. It told me to carry the book west, it told me that a path would be laid out before me, that I'd be led to a place where the book would be safe. It told me I'd be protected, against anyone or anything that tried to stand in my way. If only I would have faith. That was thirty years ago and I've been walking ever since.

    Solara: And you did all this because a voice told you to?

    Eli: I know what I hear, I know what I heard, I know I'm not crazy, I didn't imagine it

  • Hoyt: [seeing two dead hijackers] It's like he's protected somehow. Like there's nothing that can touch him

    Carnegie: Oh, he's just a fucking man. You put a bullet in him, he'll go down like any other.
