London, Jan 18 - Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington has said that he enjoyed doing action scenes for his new movie 'The Book of Eli'.

'It was a lot of fun, actually. I was training with some of the top guys. That was hard but it was a lot of fun just to stretch every day,' femalefirst.co.uk quoted Washington as saying.

Set in post apocalyptic America, the movie shows how a lone man fights his way in order to protect a sacred book that holds the secrets to saving humankind.
