It has to be here
3.5/4 stars

A good "follow-up" to the Da Vinci Code, Ron Howard improves upon the criticism of the first Dan Brown adaptation and makes a good, action filled film. While many criticized the first movie as having too much dialogue (people explaining things? Blasphemy!), I actually didn't mind it. However, Howard solves this problem by having Tom Hanks' Langdon explain the symbolism and background without stopping the action. I was a little wary of this film, as I felt the book got a little carried away at the end. While Howard keeps a lot of the book's ending, he changes a few details to make it a little more realistic. A good summer film that doesn't dumb things down for it's audience.
