Denzel Washington is known to like scripts that take a high moral ground. Still it's Hollywood and I am more than half waiting for the other shoe (of the plot) to drop.
I have hope though.
Looks good, great cast, and I know that Denzel won’t sign on to a movie that is crap.
ping?
It’s a COOKBOOK!
(Sorry, couldn’t help myself.)
O yeah! Finally a movie I can relate to.
Interesting that this and The Road come out so close together. I’ve read in the past that movie themes reflect the culture, often highlighting the fears prevalent at the time: the old-time monsters were the fear of the unknown, followed by the monsters becoming laughable as new villains (mad scientists) took the stage, followed by aliens, and so on. What then do movies like this, which portray the aftermath of an apparently world-wide collapse of modern society without any major physical catastrophe, say about what society is most concerned with?
Looks pretty friggin awesome to me!
What an interesting, almost-allegorical coincidence that this movie features a black man carrying a message of salvation apparently powerful enough to redeem all of mankind, through a country laid waste, and the antagonist is a white man of picayune scope who wants to prevent the message from getting out.
My youngest son had 2 walk on scenes in the move, one with Denzel. Hope they don’t end up on the cutting room floor.
That 70’s Show’s Mila Kunis is in it . Interesting.
