A well packed entertaining thriller

Rating: 6/10 (5 November 2006)

After seeing THE DA VINCI CODE I have to admit that director Ron Howard succeeded in creating a fast paced and all in all a well packed thriller that got my full attention. But my wife didn't like it because she found the story complicated and with no sense. I wouldn't call that a film about religion and I didn't read the book but if you are looking for a puzzled movie with full of mystery this works no doubt. There has been written much here about the theory of Jesus and Maria Magdalena but the result at the end is that everyone has to decide of his own of how important counts Jesus Christ in his life. Anyway, it's a great movie that reached a great audience as THE PASSION OF Christ. I like these kind of movies. The cinematography, the scenery and filming locations were also very good. Final verdict: A solid 6/10.
