The post-apocalyptic action movie The Book of Eli features a surprise twist ending that leaves audiences with a lot of unanswered questions.
The underrated post-apocalyptic neo-Western action movie The Book of Eli is steeped in deeper meaning and features a twist ending that leaves audiences stunned. Released in 2010 to mostly negative reviews from critics, The Book of Eli follows the titular character as he traverses a post-apocalyptic wasteland in possession of a mysterious book that is sought by evil forces.
Though he loses the Bible in the fight with Carnegie, Eli remembers its entire contents by heart and is able to recount the words to an eagerly writing Lombardi. Back in town, Carnegie is confronted by Claudia, who refuses to translate the braille for him, and alerts him that his mad quest to secure the book has led him to lose control of his city. After recounting the Bible in its entirety, Eli eventually dies, and the freshly printed Bible is placed among a shelf full of other holy books.
Unlike many other movie twists that make a rewatch unnecessary, the reveal of Eli's blindness actually makes The Book of Eli a more compelling experience on a second viewing. Eli's blindness also makes him more dynamic because his very existence becomes symbolic. Throughout the movie, Eli espouses the power and importance of faith, and though he never uses the exact words, faith has always been described as blind belief.
