Symptom 160: Book Of Eli - A Weapon For The Apocalypse
Apocalypse August kicks off with Book of Eli, a film in which Denzel Washington is on a quest to get a copy of The Bible to safety. The film does a great job using a simple plot, get the object to the destination, to show a decimated and dangerous post nuclear winter Earth. The movie effectively uses setting and score to convey the desolation that has become the remnant of America. The entire time I was watching this movie I kept thinking it would make a great side quest in Fallout 4, but I digress. Book of Eli is a simple story that keeps you interested and immerses you in setting. It is not a tour de force, but its pretty good.
