So, I was wondering if any of my fellow Villagers have had the pleasure of seeing this yet? I went last monday and I was pleasantly surprised with it.

If you have ever played any of the Fallout games, the movie shares that same kind of feel to it. I think what made the movie for me was the message of it, the whole reason Eli is doing what he's doing really makes you hope for humanity.

Despite not being religous myself, I do like the way that the bible is used in the movie as a way of showing both sides of humanity and both the good and the bad that can come from things as simple as words.

Also LOL at the irony at the end of the movie.


Thoughts?

I've heard really mixed reviews about it. I'll probably watch it soon, but I'm not going to rush.

I saw it. I wasn't too impressed, really, but it was worth watching.
