One of the worst film adaptations EVER

Rating: 2/10 (20 May 2006)

If you loved the book (as I did), then I highly recommend NOT seeing this movie. Anyone who claims that it stayed true to the book must not have read the same book that I read. The acting was mediocre at best (with the exception of Paul Bettany), and there was no chemistry whatsoever between Langdon and Sophie. I went into it expecting it to be lacking somewhat in depth, as movies based on books usually are, but it went above and beyond my expectations in terms of the hack job that they did on the book. The mystery and excitement that made the book so wonderful were completely missing from the film, and the writer made changes to the story that were unnecessary and unforgivable. There were several parts where my friend and I actually laughed out loud because of the ludicrous changes that were made to the storyline. This may actually be putting it too nicely, but the movie crucified Dan Brown's brilliant piece of work.
