I liked the book better !

Rating: 4/10 (12 August 2008)

It IS possible to make a filmproduction of a great book without loosing the strength, details, storyline, suspense, characterdepts and even the readers imagination. Just check 'Lord of the Rings'.
In this case I read the book first, indeed a pageturner which I finished in merely two days. The day after I watched the film, with high expectations.
The disappointment began after app. 15 minutes. Trying to put the story in 200 minutes, the makers fail in every possible way. Not only did they rape the storyline and characters, they also completely ignored the beauty of Da Vinci's work.
I wish I hadn't see this one, now I will have to read the book again just to forget this bad bad interpretation.
Therefor: Film 4,5 Book 10
