Thirty years after war turned the world into a wasteland, a lone warrior named Eli (Denzel Washington) marches across the ruined landscape, carrying hope for humanity's redemption. Only one other man (Gary Oldman) understands the power of what Eli carries, and he is determined to take it for himself. Though Eli prefers peace, he will risk death to protect his precious cargo, for he must fulfill his destiny to help restore mankind.-WWW #dystopia To be honest I did not want to watch this movie because the trailer looked so depressing. My curiosity was stirred up a bit when some of my friends mentioned that they love the powerful message of the story.

The Iraq war is one of the biggest mistakes in the world.  Hey, I'm just making a comment and I don't want to wage war against anyone, but I hope it never happened.  War is really stupid! A lot of innocents become casualties. ...

This is short and simple. I felt sad and disappointed while watching this dark version...grossed out on the ingredients the White Queen (Anne Hathaway) used...but I love Johnny Depp, the Cheshire Cat and the other special effects...I also like the philosophical message...Like some of my group mates said,"... it's good, not great!"  My friend, K, who watched it in 3D liked it much, much better than I did.   Alice in Wonderland 2010 Film Alice in Wonderland is a 2010 American computer-animated and live action fantasy film directed by Tim Burton, written by Linda Woolverton, and released by Walt Disney Pictures.  Wikipedia Initial release :  March 5, 2010 ( USA ) Director :  Tim Burton Screenplay :  Linda Woolverton Characters :  The Hatter ,  Alice ,  Cheshire Cat ,  White Rabbit ,  More Adapted from :  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland ,  Through the Looking-Glass ...
