disappointing

Rating: 5/10 (15 November 2010)

I have been reading Dan brown novels ever since they first came in the market they all represent perhaps in a fictitious story an idea which may not be so untrue his books are real wealth of knowledge and i can't even imagine how much research he must have put it to actually write that kind of stuff. Angels and demons by Dan brown gave a lot of it's volume to explain the scientific stuffs like anti-matter and many things see the basic idea of novel is to actually bring to surface the centuries old war of science and religion. Told in a way well only way i can describe it is like attending a Howard lecture on a roller coaster ride. To be honest this movie is really well made if you are looking for good direction , great acting of course by tom hanks, great special effects especially the one where bomb goes off. But for me as a read of the novel i came in expecting the movie to have a strong message which will force us to think about stuffs. That certainly did not happen with the disastrous plot they had in order to make the movie small and you know one of those action thrillers they make these days they just killed the whole soul of the novel The most disastrous of all was the character of camerlengo his portrayal in the movie was like a hungry for power hound as compared to a very complex one shown in the novel of being a mis directed but good at heart kinda guy. Anyways for me the movie was one of the biggest disappointment being a reader of the novel more so because it was of tom hanks. but i guess if you haven't read the novel you shouldn't really care much about those things just put it in the category of indiana jones and you will enjoy it.
