doesn't mean it has to be the bible. it could simply be a MacGuffin like the briefcase in pulp fiction. the book really wasn't important.


The book WAS actually pretty important in the most ironic way. In case you didn't notice, it got placed next to the Coran as "just another one of those books" at the end of the movie.

Movie is perfect as it is.

The Book of Eliaj (Eliah) ... spelling.

If you didn't like the religeousness of it, then you failed to see it in the title.

Movie was good... I forgot the name of another movie I liked with a similar twist.

It is about a counsellor trying to help a boy deal with the images he sees.
I think Bruce Willis is the counsellor... don't quote me on this... :)

I like how they represented the bible in it. "its a weapon to control the weak" or something like that. So true

imo would have been a lot better if they removed religion from the movie.


ummm that would have been impossible..... the whole movie was based upon religion, and the bible
e/ also really enjoyed the movie, thought it was very well done

Only thing I'd change is replacing Mila Kunis with someone who isn't so damn annoying.

I could be wrong but I believe that is called "The Road"

i havent seen it in a few years so i'm a little hazy on the details. from my memory they didnt even reveal it was the bible until the end when he recites it.
