It's a sci-fi movie about faith, and a black man travels west to find where this book should be.

Avery, 30 years after the destruction of civilization, has been guided by faith and the voice of his heart.

The power of belief, as if he was protected by something, and no one could hurt him.

Regarding the matter of black people passing on the scriptures, there is also a brief mention of the black Jesus in "This Man From Earth", which is called one of the legends.

In The Book of Eli

And even if you get it without understanding the true meaning of faith, it will not be used by people. It is not just reading it to gain power. Power is only given to those who are full of faith.

The villain obtains the book because he wants to rule the mind and the desire for power. Although the starting point is wrong, the understanding of "that book is not right to hide, it should exist for sharing" is correct. Not entangled in external things, understood as "giving others, more than taking care of yourself".

To live is to believe. The beginning of the film is the scene of doomsday. The former world exists in the memory of the surviving generation. Ellie said, "In the past, people had more than they needed, and they didn't know what was precious." Guided by the beginning of the road of faith.

Faith will guide the way forward, and faith will give strength. Even if the body has faith, it is indestructible. This is repeatedly mentioned in the film. Faith is a weapon.

Gunfights, knife fights and even bows and arrows, fighting scenes are also one of the highlights of the film.

This has happened before and will continue to happen, and faith is always on the way.

    It's ok, it's worth seeing. In fact, Avery is very stupid. It would be better to find a piece of "The Analects" and "Mencius" in the east^_^.

The Book of Eli quotes

  • Solara: What was it like before?

    Eli: People had more than they needed, people didn't know what was precious and what wasn't, people threw away things they kill each other for now.

  • Eli: Thank you lord for a warm bed to sleep on, thank you for the food we are about to eat, thank you for a roof over our heads on cold nights such as this, thank you for companionship in hard times like these, Amen.
