A good movie for anybody, feminists and atheists especially

Rating: 8/10 (17 June 2006)

I went to see it today with my mother and for the most part, I was a bit confused at what was going on...however, the backstory about the whole Mary Mendelin (spelling?) cover-up and such certainly kept my attention. The huge amount of violence was a bit of a turnoff, as I am rather disappointed by the lack of originality in this...it seems as if every popular, big-budget movie has violence nowadays; then again, I must keep in mind that the movie is based on a book, and that there was probably violence in the book...which I will admit, I did not read before going to see the movie.
on a somewhat jokey note: I also learned a lot of French swear words :]
