Garbage! Boring, sleep inducing performances, laughable. Worst Tom Hanks performance.

Rating: 1/10 (16 November 2017)

OK, I only saw the last 45 minutes of this borefest, from the scene where Tom, Audrey Tautou, and Ian McKellen are in some church where tom throws the vile and Ian leaps for it. Best thing to shut the movie off after Ian falls to the ground. That leap was worth it. What follows is utter boredom, except for the part when Ian is thrown into the cop car and he's seen yelling out the window, embarrassing for Ian, but may find some laughs. I was laughing.
I have not read the book, and I do not plan to watch the whole movie. I've read the Wikipedia and the user reviews for Best, Hated It, Loved It, and Chronological – about 10 each. I have nothing against rewriting accepted religious beliefs or conspiracy theories in movies. I just don't want them in real life. I believe all religion is a tool to control people, as in "give me your worldly possessions and you will have everlasting happiness after you die", or "Give me a hamburger today, and I'll pay you on Tuesday", or "I'll give you bigger better health insurance for a fraction of the price", or Well you get the point. It's a freaking con job. "We'll give the rich tax cuts, so that they will build bigger and better factories for you poor slobs to work" – Con job.
Getting back to the The Da Vinci Bore. First Tom Hanks looks like he has his eyes shut, and someone painted eyes where he's closed eyelids are. Now, I respect Tom as an actor, because I've seen enough of his work to call him a good actor, not great, not that, but a good actor. So, first the acting sucks in this movie. Audrey Tautou, and Ian McKellen were also garbage.
The story, from what I gathered from the reviews and Wikipedia is garbage. Some kind of mystery and that Jesus had children and descendants. I don't doubt that he did. Most kings and powerful people had kids. But, then we get a multi city tour of looking for clues, action, murder, mystery, (similar to James Bond, or Jayson Borne, or Star Wars, or Star Trek, or Avengers, or any other big budget spectacular nonsense). Only to find out that Audrey is the last of Jesus's descendants. OK! Take a look at the last scene with Tom after he realizes where Jesus's wife is buried. Wood comes to mind? Some user reviewer in the Loved It category with 10 stars vote, stated that the music was incredible. Well, no. Not incredible, only filler. For the money they spent on this crap they could have brought back Beethoven from the grave. Or just use Beethoven.
This movie is garbage. It's filler. And that opinion has nothing to do with the religious implications. I've heard about this movie for years, of how great it was. And when I saw it was playing on HBO, I thought OK, I'll catch it. I'm glad I only saw the last 45 minutes. But I did spend time reading the reviews. Hated It (1 star) category has the best views with details of why they hate it. Loved It (10 star) category users love it, because they love it, to them it's just fantastic, but no substance.
The name of the game is brainwash. Build it and they will come. But it must be promoted. Yes, they promoted this movie and people came. Propaganda. Tell the people it's great enough times and they will believe you. Tell the people up is down enough times and they will eventually believe you. A perfect example of this is the "movie" Star Wars VII, The Force Awakens. A cheap copy brainless excuse for the Disney film studios to put a product out that will make a profit. So what we have here is not art. Not thinking. They are telling you what and how to think. Freedom has a price. It's called thinking.
