Well shot, terrible performances

Rating: 3/10 (22 May 2006)

Should you go see it? Yes.
Is it interesting to watch? Mostly.
Is it the best movie of the year? God no.
I enjoyed the book for the most part, except when Dan Brown insisted on going into minute detail on the symbology of the Sacred Feminine, and then repeated it over and over.
The movie on the other hand borders on boring about two thirds through and is far too long. Harrison Ford could have played the part of Robert Langdon but could have been even more wooden than Tom Hanks (at least Tom Hanks remembers to smile now and again).
Audrey Tautou was terrible, not sure if Sophie Marceau or Virginie Ledoyen would have pulled it off either...
I give it 5 or 6 out of ten for entertainment.
Just keep your expectations low and you may enjoy the ride.
