there is a murder in the Louvre & victim's death message points to Robert Langdon

Rating: 9/10 (21 May 2006)

this is an excellent movie, as much as it could have been. the movie follows the plot closely, it does miss out on some nifty details such as how are they breaking the crypts and so on, but overall a solid effort. they do show as much as possible in 2 and a half hour, the book is long and each detail is important, hence the movie well, cannot do complete justice to it. this might be more evident for people who haven't read the book at all or are not interested in crypts and to some extent mythology. another important thing? if you don't like discussions of history and especially Christian history, don't bother to go. you wont understand or like the movie. the acting by Tom Hanks is superb and even the actress playing Sophie Neveue is great.
