Absolutely Beautiful

Rating: 9/10 (30 May 2006)

Hi, I had heard some criticism of the movie and had low expectations. But I was pleasantly surprised that this was a great movie! I don't understand how some guys can criticise it. Okay, Hanks' hair is awful, but his performance is strong. Audrey Taotou is lovely as Sophie. The scenes from history are done exquisitely, especially the Council of Nicea. Ian Mckellen delivers another power-packed performance as Leigh Teabing, and Paul Bettany as Silas is simply outstanding. Jean Reno looks tailor-made for the role of Bezu Fache. Also, the special effects are great. Definitely a must-watch. 9/10 for me. PS:There's no need to ban it.
