An OK American thriller. Nothing more.

Rating: 7/10 (19 May 2006)

I went to the film not expecting much and I didn't get much either. It was a rather cliché solve-the-puzzle-while-running-for-your-life plot, not unlike Indiana Jones or similar movies and series. The only thing different is the idea of Jesus having a wife and children and the Church actively working against it. I didn't care one way or the other, so I didn't find anything really interesting in this. Now, what I would have liked to see is the whole thing revealed to the world and the social and religious changes on the world. Now THAT would have been a great book.
Conclusion: reasonable acting, reasonable plot, shamefully small role for Jean Reno. I also have a conspiracy theory about this film. I think it has a hidden meaning that Magneto would kick Doc Ock's ass if they were to fight.
