Its a Cryptex

Murder and intrigue in Paris, this movie was not wha I expected after having read the book. Tom Hanks and Ian McKellan both did well, but as a whole, I'm sure that this movie would have been better if the script was kept more simply. It held close to the plot of the book, but not the visuals. Still, watch it if you're in the mood for a good mystery.

Pretty Great Flick

This is one of my favorite books ever written. I was so stoked to see the film and I have to say it was a excellent film. It followed the novel very well, except the end, but it was well made and highly entertaining. I would suggest this film to someone who like the book.

Has some entertaining value with obvious flaws.

The Da Vinci Code is nothing more than a murder mystery that's preposterous, overlong and saddled with a disappointing conclusion that defines the word "anticlimax". I avoided reading Dan Brown's novel before seeing the movie (and don't intend to read it now that I have sat through this adaptation).
I presume the book is more exciting than the movie. The Da Vinci Code is a mediocre thriller, with too few thrills and too much predictable action.

Around the two-hour mark of the film, the crime is essentially resolved. Thus leaving the movie about 30 minutes to lead to a needlessly long and predictable conclusion. The dialogue scenes of the film are more interesting than the action ones, because when it comes to explaining the conspiracy, The Da Vinci Code does an impressive job of blen...
