Eli's Book

As the first few minutes move slowly by the tone of the movie is set. Not to say the picture is a slow moving one, not with all the fighting and chasing. More that the plot walks. Like someone passing you on a casual stroll, the destination becoming clearer as you hoover above them to see the journey. (No spoilers here) I was pleasantly entertained, and even better, caused to think.

My personal thoughts just this morning turned to new branch of thinking, or better yet, soapbox to stand on. There is no agenda Hollywood will balk at which shows money making potential. If intellegent people of faith would actually graduate, (seminary, undergrad, doctorates) and go into the work place they would be such effective instruments. There could be a strengthened arena for debate regarding faith in a number of professions.

Enough with my preaching.

I leave you with a simple promotion to see the movie. I'd go again to watch for the subtle hints at what I believe to be metaphoric faith written into the story. Great screen writing and very interesting thought into casting make this movie for sure entertainment for all the males out there. Ladies if story content interests you but the violence is a no go, you may want to steer clear. It's no Braveheart, but there are still some intense violent scenes. That plug gave me the best excuse to get a seldom used movie poster from one of the all time great movies. (no matter how high rotten tomatoes has it. Ha.)
