    I haven't seen the movie but the book was very good. Read the book first then watch the movie!

    It was a bit boring at first. After that the story goes on abt that pic, then it became interesting... hey hey... :p

    Absolutely hated it. It's a terrible adaptation of the book. Considering Ron Howard directed The Beautiful Mind, which was another adapted film (BM is biopic though), The Da Vinci Code is utterly horrible. The fact that they casted Tom Hanks to be Robert Langdon (sp?) doesn't help any, which part of "Harrison Ford in Harris Tweed" do the casting directors NOT understand anyways?
    Along the same line, the fact that they cut one of the two riddles (the Sofia cryptex) is like, hateful. The story look strangely incoherent after thus. And the epithany/revealation Tom Hanks had to solve the 2nd cryptex? It's just confusing to those who haven't read the book.
    Oh well, I'll still be looking forward to Angels & Demons (in the talk now...) anyways. That would make WAY BETTER visual adaptation.

    I have a bad feeling that Angels & Demons are just gonna get butchered like The Da Vinci Code :(

    One way or another, The Da Vinci Code was like a virtual tour of Paris :p Always good :D
