The movie is much better than the book

Rating: 9/10 (22 May 2006)

I read " professional "critics comments and user comments, what a disappointment to see that everybody is on hype mode and really have nothing new to say. I read the Da Vinci Code like everyone else. The book started as a very interesting one only to bore me past half the plot, I actually made an effort to finish it..
This movie will be delightful for those who did not read the book and, if it was not for all the critics who gave it a thumps down, the reviews would be in the masterpiece category. But since it seems those critics have personal agendas and politics to follow I guess we will not see that happening. The film is entertaining, with a great plot, awesome performances, great special effects, interesting characters and very artistic photography, yet most of the people focus on the politics of the film rather than the extreme quality of it. Sad...
Kudos to the producer and director, thanks to their movie I will not have to punish myself reading the book again, like Silas..
Maybe the next time something like this comes along Hollywood can make and present the movie before the book comes out.. I will see the movie again, and most likely the DVD, if anyone is interested in buying a used book feel free to contact me..
