Somewhat of a let-down

Rating: 8/10 (21 May 2006)

first, let me start out by saying that may viewing of this film was somewhat obscured by protesters in front of my local theater... Anyway, this movie is one of the few GOOD ones I've seen this year although it does have it's fair share of problems. One in which being that the actors have no emotion form time to time and it seems very mono tome and can get annoying. Another is that there are spots that need MORE storytelling behind it and then there are parts that should have been left out altogether and some of the actions seem terribly expected. "Hmm... Let me look over here and think for about 5 seconds then magically Find something/figure out a problem that should take MUCH longer." But the good outweighs the bad by far in this overall faithful book-to-movie transition. The good are as follows: The powerful soundtrack, the way the flashback scenes are filmed, how much of the vital information has been put into the movie, the locations, and last but not least it can entertain most anyone who has even a LIGHT knowledge of Dan Bron or DaVinci (Me for example, although I did read the book and play the game first.) Let me say that if most of you are just flat out BASHING this movie and giving it low scores to make it look bad, please do not come back on to IMDb... Nobody need people like you tainting the good name of good entertainment
