Being catholic. And a hater of the book I haven't read. I enjoyed this!

Rating: 10/10 (21 May 2006)

This film is excellent if for no other reason than its an exciting thriller!
Being catholic. And a hater of the book I haven't read (not because I feel strongly or anything) I just like to jump on bandwagons and am not much of a reader.
But I defiantly enjoyed this film because it offered me what I feel was a good depiction of what would be the books main events. And it was very exciting learning the "naughty" stuff about Jesus. A bit of a 'guilty pleasure' if I do say so.
If you have read the book I don't need to tell you to see it.
But if you have not don't let that put you off seeing the film. It's a good film in its own "film merits". Additionally Tom Hanks and Ron Howard pairing up to bring you a film about a crazy albino monk? If thats not a formula for a successful plot then what is?!
