not bad, at all

Rating: 7/10 (19 May 2009)

the movie is visually dynamic, it keeps you entertained the whole time. I read the novel so there were no surprises for me in the plot itself, but the twists are pretty good. Evan McGregor was excellent. I was never much of a Hanks' fan so I still don't think he's a Langdon material but OK. Vetra and Richter are reduced as characters and that's it. I visited Rome only a month ago and the movie did convey the atmosphere of the churches etc. soundtrack is to die for, absolutely marvelous
I read few comments that the movie is dull, too much of a talk?? what did you expect, a car chase and killings all the time?
well, if there are any faults in the movie, they are the novel's faults such as bending the historical truths etc. and there's something so illogical: symbolist, art historian and expert for Italian art such as R. Langdon HAS TO KNOW Latin and Italian. it is absolute imperative but, as always, it's Dan Brown's mistake
that' all
