Ho Hum!!

Rating: 4/10 (11 July 2006)

While I have really enjoyed previous movies in which Tom Hanks starred or was featured, he was totally miscast in this movie. Having just recently read the book (I waited for the paperback edition) I was also somewhat disappointed at the screen adaptation.
Go buy the book and then read it. You'll get a lot more out the the pictures generated in your mind that from the movie. Both Sony and Howard should be paying residuals to the Catholic Church for the box office they generated with their bad mouthing. Maybe the Church should talk a page from the politicians campaign manual that says if you don't want your opponent to have visibility you don't run around talking about them.
