Book of Eli
Did the high contrast sepia tone drive anyone else nuts?

I watched it, waiting for the punchline, which eventually came, but I'm not sure it was worth the wait.

I didn't hate it. The actors were good. The premise was good. But the presentation sucked in my opinion.

1. It lost me at the old shaking couple scene.
It dragged on and on and on. I was only half paying attention at the end.

And yeah, the cinematography got in the way, was too much.

2. Funny, that and the score are my 2 favorite things...
about this movie. However I can't say I hated it, but it was a bit to predictable and it was hard to buy the premise. There were a few too many holes in the story. Mainly the people being so far removed from "before" but it was only 30 years? The people didn't look that young. So I would have to give it 2.5 stars.
