so dark the con of Akiva!

Rating: 1/10 (20 May 2006)

The movie itself to me moved slow and was confusing as heel from the beginning of the movie. The point to me why oh why did they even make this film when they should have been making angels and demons first to fully explain the character that was Robert Langdon. Langdon to me along with all of the other characters in the film had no such character development in the story. But the thing to me that really got to me was the sequences that really got it dragging on during the end when they had all of the fade outs. I was just sitting there with my movie evaluation paper since I work at a movie theater but oh man I was thinking like when the hell is this movie going to end. It was a boring waste of two hours and twenty three minutes. The part like when Robert was like I can't go inside of that because he was claustrophobic which they didn't get into too great of detail but briefly explained it when Ian McKellan or codename the Teacher, which if you aren't a complete idiot you would figure it out that he was the man who was the employer of Alfred Molina, and Paul Bettany who dies from Police after he shoots and thinks that he kills Molina in one scene. Jean Reno to me pulled off a great job, and with Audrey Tatou also did a good job in the film, but Tom Hanks severely got on my nerves which I never thought could even be possible since he was one of America's greatest actors ever to have crossed over from Bosom buddies a dumb comedy to great films such as Forest Gump, and even Philadelphia.
The writing in the film was horrible, because who wrote the film but no other than Akiva Goldsman the man who wrote the two greatest campy and horrendous films in Hollywood Batman Forever, and Batman and Robin. Akiva's lines were horrible, and also the plot of the movie had some great gaping holes in the story. Akiva should be banned from Hollywood but the people in this world like the ones who gave this movie a ten should be given a CAT scan but everyone has there right to their own opinion so I will not hold it against them. Ron Howard did a good job Directing the movie, but the film would of been ten times better if David Koepp would have wrote the film since he to me is one of Hollywood's finest writers, and so now the one movie that I had so much hope for turned out to be a horrible movie that had so much potential, and yet I still wonder why they did not make the Angels and Demons book into an adapted screenplay for the film.
I encourage everyone to go see it since this is only my opinion and everyone should make their own opinions about the film. It's one of those you like it or you hate it films I guess.
