It was decent but the premise was heavy-handed and the symbolism was blatant, i.e, blind prophet, religion something to save above all else, etc

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

That wouldn't work at all, because the entire movie was based off finding the book that could "start and end all wars". It could have been about nothing else...

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.
