  READ the BOOK.. the movie is BS.. well now that i think of it both are .. it's a stab in the heart to many Christians out there.. espcially Catholics... 2 thumbs down.

I don't understand why the Catholic church would react that way just for a simple movie...... my theory is that the Church has committed certain mistakes through history and they just wanna forget about them and limit their followers to not to inquire about them.

As I said it in another thread… there’s another movie called “The Last Temptation of Christ” that talks about the same topic (Jesus having an affair w/ Mary Magdalene) and this movie was banned for years in different parts of the world, because of the Catholic churches will...

Sure I can compare the two, they are both movies, cost over 10 bucks and both are big budget summer blockbusters, but one of them gave me more entertainment for the value than the other one.  Not because its an action flick, but because it was more effective in grabbing me and keeping me interested in what was coming up.  Have you seen Match Point?  Thats a good movie!

I had not read the book but I saw the movie, I thought it was good, however Tom Hanks I think did not do that good of a job with his performance and am also not a big fan of ron howards storytelling anymore, I think he needs to re invent his style personally... Anywho, good movie, MI3 was more entertaining though.

 I found the movie to be very interesting indeed. Let's remember that Langdon is not supposed to be James Bond.  Sofie's character is also ok, I liked her eyes and accent.

 Let's not forget that the whole movie as the book is fictional.

 However, I think one must read the book in order to make sense of the drama; otherwise the movie can be boring as hell.

I read this book three times before watching it and i must say that because of that i had an advantage.  my hubbie was confused for most of the beginning and i found myself trying to explain the background.  It got clearer when langdon and sofie are at Teabing's place.  i have to say that even when reading the book that was the most interesting part.  I guess it wasn't all i thought it could be because in my mind i had already set up the stage and in no way did the director do it justice.  then again your imagination is always better than anything you see.  If i hadn't read the book i think that i would have still enjoyed it JC get me my bootleg copy please:)

I just saw this movie and I have to say that I didn't like it very much...it is full of repetitive clichés that makes the movie loose the credibility and that's when the expectator starts to get bored. The plot is interesting, but it needed to be exploted a little more to make it more interesting. If you want a nice tour around Europe watch this movie.   1/2

Nunca te confies de los criticos de Cine. Aunque ellos tienen estudios en el tema son personas y tienen opiniones subjetivas. Vi la pelicula anoche. No esta para un oscar pero es fiel al libro y es relativamente buena despues de todo. Nunca me fijo en los reviews... prefiero ser yo quien decida si la pelicula es buena o no.
No creo que sea una perdida de tiempo o dinero ir a verla
Me acuerdo de todas las buenas criticas que The lion, the witch and the ... tuvieron...cuando la vi... me di cuenta lo horrible que fue. El punto es el mismo, es todo bien personal.

I just read a review, and basically its received bad reviews, they stated that Tom Hanks acting was not good in this movie at all...and you know what?! I knew it! I didnt think he was the ideal guy to play Langdons character...I thought someone more like I dunnnoooo...noone comes to mind I wanna say Pierce B but I dunno...Tatou..the french actress I think is perfect and the rest of the characters like mr, teabing played by sir Mckellin  (I cant believe Gandolf is GAY!1)or whatever his name is is good too...and alfred molina..as the bad guy....BUT YEAH SOME ONE OTHER THEN TOM HANKS

I loved the book, is been one of the best I read.  But I was actually reading it while I was going to a non-catholic phase so maybe that is why.  I question religion a lot so I loved the book.  I will definatelly go and watch the movie, I hope it is as good as the book.

Yesi

I don't care if this is a DART!    I'm too lazy to check.  Has anyone heard ONE good review about this movie??    I've heard nothing but bashing.  For those who have read the book, how is it?  I have it at home collecting dust!!! Despite the negative reviews, who plans to go watch it in theatres?
