Amazingly manages to stick with the book

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2006)

This movie was not the best movie I have ever seen. However, it was fairly good. I read the book almost two years ago, so I don't remember every little detail. But watching the movie jogged most of my memory, and there were only two or three minor parts I question as being the same in the book, and the ending was definitely different- but not terrible.
There was much more nudity than I was expecting. I definitely did not enjoy watching the monk Silas hurting himself several times throughout the movie as retribution for his sins. Once had an effect, but to repeat it was sickening.
If you can handle some gruesome scenes, and enjoy watching movies that stick to the book: I highly recommend the DaVinci Code.
