Solid movie, but I made the mistake of reading the book first. The book really was fantastic and although I wasn't disappointed in the movie by any means, it just wasn't as great as the book.

Angels and Demons Review

Angels & Demons is the sequel to the 2006 box office phenomenon The Da Vinci Code. You know, that one movie back in the day that had the Vatican ready to declare a crusade on Hollywood, that same movie that brought atheists together saying that their time had at last come, the same movie that was preparing to change the foundations of Christianity as we knew it... Then the movie came out and everyone who was ready for that defining moment put their clubs and spears behind their backs and said, "Never mind." The wide number of historic inaccuracies and many smaller problems caused the movie to be looked down upon by critics, but Ron Howard sure didn't care, he was walking away with $508 million.

My mom and dad were going out to see it this morning and they invited me along, so I decided...

Dissapointment to the Max

This is the most dissapointing film ever filmed. I loved Dan Browns book and I was certain that producer and lead actor, Tom Hanks, would screw up the adaptation, but holy hell... I can't say to much good about it. Maybe it woulda been better if it actually followed the friggin book. Stay away from this film.

Illuminati Are Alive

What a great movie. Sure, it wasn't brilliant - but it did keep my interest, much better than "The Da Vinci Code" [the book was better too]. I loved how this movie was able to tell the story as well as develop the characters as well as teach about all those awesome things that Dan Brown had stuck in his noggin. Ah, what an entertaining movie that I definitely will buy when it comes out on DVD.

It has to be here

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.

The book was better. I'm gonna guess that Angels & Demons will be the same.

I saw the "code" and didn't care for it at all.  A little too hokey.  I thought Hanks could have done much better.  He has not been in an amazing movie for a really long time.  Looks like this one got pushed back to 2009.
