Forget the Hype

Rating: 7/10 (20 May 2006)

Let me start by saying that I've never read the book, probably won't, I don't buy the whole conspiracy, and I'm an Anglican Catholic (sort of English Orthodox). That said. I enjoyed the movie. I didn't think it was a cinematic triumph or anything, but it was a solidly entertaining film. I liked Hanks and Tautou in their roles, I felt it was a pretty engaging whodunit, and my only real complaint is that it felt just a twitch too long.
It's a movie, folks. It isn't going to change the world, or rock the foundations of anything. It's just a movie. Get yourself some popcorn (layered butter, of course), and just enjoy it.
