The film got laughed at in Cannes, and the critics' concensus seems to be "boring".

I thought the movie was boring and if it were up to me I would have left the cinema.

On the other hand though, I didn't quite follow what was going on. Ignorance.

it's too long... The build up was great and took a great portion of the movie's length, so the director had to wrap it up in a similar way.. but unfortunatly the wrapping up wasn't as exciting or grasping as the begining.. you can almost feel that this movie can be divided into two..

Sophie was the weakest link in my opinion ... there are lots of french actresses out there who could've done it better....

i've seen Tom Hanks in better movies.. this wasnt his best...

the best im my opinion was Ian Mc, who looked focused and more into the movie... the guy who played Salis was good as well.. he added another dimention to movie.. without him the movie could've been even worse.

I hate this movie, I hate the book, I hate Dan Brown for beeing a pathetic writer who take a adventage about the ignorance of the people who doesn't read about this "darks" and "secret facts" of Jesus.
Personally I'm not going to watch this movie.
Some friends told me that's a "good fiction movie".

So why not watch it on the premise that it is fiction? I haven't read the book, but from what I know about it, there's nothing in there claiming to be truthful, it's all made up. I certainly would never take it for a fact.

Not that I take religion and Jesus Christ for a fact either, but that's a separate issue.

It was really interesting, if you haven't read the book you will probably enjoy it. It's a good film but it has it's flaws and it's far from a masterpiece. The storytelling leaves much to be wanted and Tom Hanks acting is really terrible at times, i know that sounds as the popular thing to say these days but it's true.

Despite the many flaws this film has, Paul Bettany's interpretation of Silas alone is worth the money. The humor is another reason to go see it. The funniest scene in the whole film is when Sir Leigh Teabing(Ian Mckellan) is exiting his private jet with an armada of cops waiting outside, he exits and a cop steps forward and Leigh says in a cheery friendly voice " Oh good morning! did that old cannabis charge finnaly catch up with me?" That's classic.

I'd go see it if you're in a mood for an interesting film, just don't expect a masterpiece.

i saw it and thought it was pretty good but the most astounding thing is untill i read this thread i did not know that tom hanks was actually in the movie.

IIRC he stated on the first page that everything that would follow was the truth. I might not remember correctly though.

Anyway, the book sucks. It's as simple as that. But you *don't* want to touch the Bernini mystery. It's supposed to be a difficult whodunnit, but I knew who did 250 pages before the ending. Boy, did it suck realising I was right, I lost an entire day.
