Overrated movie, wonderful theory.

Rating: 5/10 (22 May 2006)

Though my expectations were high when i first watched The Da Vinci Code, i understand now that i should have read the book first. The so well known "book-better-then-movie" formula applies here. In the movie, Tom Hanks doesn't quite brings emotion and depth to Robert Langdon, none does Audrey Tautou (one of my all time favourite actress). The only star in the cast that really brings something new and interesting to the storyline and generic scenes is Paul Bettany (plays Silas); wonderful acting. So it all comes down to this : If you've already read the book, there's no special reason to pay your ticket for The Da Vinci Code.
