Not like the book!

Rating: 6/10 (16 August 2016)

The film is OK I guess if you have not read the book. But I have, and the differences annoys me.
Here are all the differences I remember:
Langdon is contacted directly by the leader of CERN, Max Kohler. He is not even in the film, even though he is quite a significant character. The first victim is Vittoria Vetra's father, Leonardo Vetra, not her assistant. He is branded with the Illuminati ambigram.
Olivetti is the head of the Swiss guard and Rocher (Richter in the film) is his second in command. Why change names from the book??? Also Camerlengo Patrick McKenna is named Carlo Ventresca in the book, and he does not know (until much later) that the late pope is his father. The Camerlengo kills the pope because he gets to know that the pope had a child, but did not know that the child was himself.
The one who knows about the pope's secret son is cardinal Mortati (named Strauss in the movie).
Langdon is alone in the Archives when the air is about to run out.
Langdon saves himself in the church set on fire with the help of his Mickey mouse watch when he is trapped under a sarcophagus.
The last preferiti Baggia did also die in the book. The Hasassin (yes, "Hasassin", of Middle Eastern origin) tries to drown Langdon in the fountain, and he survives with the help of the air tube.
Langdon had to find the clue to the Illumination church himself cause Baggia is dead. The reason he needed to get there was because Vittoria was kidnapped by the hasassin and he believed her to be with him. There is love in the air between Robert and Vittoria in the book. Robert and vittoria kills the Hasassin. You never get the feeling of how sick and disturbed the Hasassin really is in the film.
In the book we now believe that Max Kohler is the bad guy who is now soon to land in the Vatican to kill the camerlengo. Swiss Guards, Robert and Vittoria storm in to see the camerlengo branded with the 5th Illuminati brand, the diamond that contains all 4 elements in an ambigram. Kohler gets shot (Richter/Rocher in the film), Rocher storms in (he is switched with another cardinal in the film). Kohler hands over the film recorded from his wheelchair to Langdon.
The media's involvement is very different as well. Few TV-stations cover the events. The Hasassin gives info about the events to one of the stations, and they start to hunt a good story. Later this TV team is used to film all the shocking events inside St Peters Church. The camerlengo uses the TV team to make a great speech that makes people come together to pray all over the world (important in the book!).
In the book Vittoria can not fix the battery for the antimatter container in Rome, she has to take it back to CERN.
Langdon enters the helicopter with the camerlengo. The camerlengo bails with the only parachute, and Langdon saves himself with jumping out with some tarp landing in the water.
In the end, there are actually two new popes elected: The camerlengo before he dies as his name is shouted out loud, and the high elector.
There is probably even more...
