One time use

Rating: 3/10 (18 September 2007)

The film has the same flaws as the book. Everything lies in the plot unveiling, and when you know the end it is tasteless.
The cast is good, I mean there are far too many good, excellent actors to get it wrong: Tom Hanks, Andrey Tautou, Jean Reno, Ian McKellen. If you can't get a decent film out of THAT cast, you're done. Even I could (just kidding).
You don't want to know the story I hope? A conspiracy about the Holy Grail being in fact Jesus Christ's bloodline.
The book was nice to read once. I still have it, but try to read it twice, and it gets so boring. Same thing for the film. Once it will be fun "how did they adapt the book?" and then you can sleep it through.
Just a cheap rent for a single use.
