Not a bad movie but it is better to read the book first

Rating: 6/10 (27 January 2008)

OK, I am one of those people who were blown away by the book. It kept me 3 nights without sleeping because i could not stop reading.But i better talk about the movie. Having read the book and knowing already the plot and what is going to happen I still went to the cinema with high expectations because of the great cast(Hanks,Reno,McKellen).I found my self enjoying the movie although i was bored at some points.The movie was quite close to the book but it was not the best adaptation of a book.The acting was not bad, Paul Bettany was very good as Silas, Tom hanks was OK so did the rest of the cast.But still the film had lack of inspiration from the director,it may have been that i read the book already,but it did not kept me hooked like the book. Overall this is slightly above average film in everything.I advise the readers to read Dan Brown's piece first and then if they are interesting to watch the movie.
