A very nicely done movie!

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2006)

The movie was great, very nicely done - and having read the book - i can appreciate the work the director has done here. many people (so called critics) try to point out holes in the script or other things - but lets face the fact - the task to create a movie out of that huge book was no easy task. Overall experience it and relive the feel - its greatly done.
I think both actors are great, i don't know why people are gossiping about Hank's hair and the chemistry with the lead lady, all were fine.
what would you rather want a US actress giving a fake french accent? Ian Mckellen does a great job - Audrey too had the class to represent royalty. i cant say how a person who hasn't read the book or doesn't know about these strong theories would react to the movie. might be too much for them to learn. but overall its great entertainment! and Hollywood should do more original stuff than make stupid movies like MI 3. they actually called the organization IMF - impossible mission force, how dumb is that? The Davinci code had a lot of ground to cover - in compressing the book. some small parts had obviously to be left out. and as always a book is more descriptive than a movie.
but the point is - its great entertainment - a very well done job. at least people will pay more attention to art, davinci and all the good stuff. rather than focusing on the usual oil-war-terror nonentertaining crap.
