real disappointment

Rating: 2/10 (22 May 2006)

It is really quite bad. I was disappointed by Tom Hanks' and Audrey Tatou's acting, I had impression they didn't read the book, and they know nothing about their characters. Hanks was pretty unbelievable as a scientist, and I would suggest physically stronger actress for playing Sophie as Audrey is. Even it can't jeopardize the success of Dan Brown's book it can certainly blame the actors and film-makers who participated in this "fast food" movie. Thanks God for Ian McKellen. His performance is always a pleasure. I think the film was made in rush. The film-makers wanted to earn money from it as soon as possible as it is a secure blockbuster. What a pity.
