One of my favorite actors is Denzel Washington. I like most of his movies, but the ones I liked best were Man On Fire and The Book Of Eli.

The Book Of Eli has to be the better of the two. It takes place in a post apocalyptic world. After 30 years of war, the world is a wasteland. Eli has a mission. He is carrying a mysterious book heading west as a nomad. He meets some unsavory characters on his journey and deals with them appropriately. Only one other man understands the power of the book Eli is carrying and feels if he has the book it will give him limitless power.

The movie has some twists and turns and a surprising end. If you haven't seen the movie, it's worth seeing.


Wife: That's the 4th time you've gone back for dessert, doesn't that embarrass you? Me: No, I keep telling them it's for you.

That is one movie that when I stumble upon it, I watch the whole thing, which is unheard of generally. I am a habitual channel flipper. That is why I have the entire den to myself.
I married a woman. What man wants to watch the crap that they want to watch?

What made it really good is the fact he was blind and still able to make it through.

He does not miss on many of his movies. Love both mentioned along with many more.

Denzel puts out great movies. Man on Fire is one of my favs. Don't watch the original with Scott Glenn. It was gay.

I was thinking the same thing. That's OK. It's still worth watching.
