Looks like critics had made up their mind before they watched the movie.

Rating: 6/10 (16 September 2013)

I recently read the book and then watched the movie. I've always felt that movies can hardly accommodate all that a book has to offer. The same was true with this movie as well, it somehow missed the grain of the book but still a great job in making it enjoyable. That being said most of the reviews I read so far from critics as well as the viewers seemed obviously enraged backlash of hurt beliefs towards the writer in particular. What happened to the human spirit to question the obvious? This book just does that and any person with a scientific rationale will obviously challenge the present premise of any religion. It is not a secret that the religious books have been altered to make believers and followers. Many will question a human prophet so why not make a God out of him? Faith has provided peace and hope in moments of despair for ages. It tends to be the only place of recluse when there is no where else to go, so an enraged reaction out of fear of loosing the last belief that holds the spirit for many may be justifiable. But does that mean we denounce someone else's freedom to follow his thoughts and question the common?
