Pittsburgh Adult Entertainment: ‘Eli’ has that “love it or hate it” feeling

January 30, 2010

We never really know the character of Eli. He is devoutly religious but of questionable morals. He can hack-and-slash looters with effortless samurai finesse, but when a gang of bikers mercilessly beat and bully two innocent travelers on the road, he turns a blind eye. This butt-kicking prophet of God witnesses the deconstruction of a liberal, luxurious America to a grim, demoralized civilization. He witnesses the worst in humanity: violence, rape, looting and unjustified inequality. He is both pessimistic and optimistic in views; he believes in God but is not so naïve to disregard human error.
His travels and need for a repowered battery bring him to a decrepit town in the desert, where a self-designated tyrant of the town, Carnegie (Gary Oldman) uses his knowledge of the time before the war to take advantage of the people. He even bullies his blind wife Claudia (Jennifer Beals) and prostitutes his teenage stepdaughter Solara (Mila Kunis). He has charged his henchmen of highway bandits to bring him one book with which he can “sway the people” and even influence all of humanity. This book just so happens to be in Eli’s knapsack.
