This was a boring movie. That's pretty much it. I enjoyed the book more, but even that was way overrated.

I thought it was a fun movie. The pacing was frantic and Tom Hanks was believable as Robert Langdon. The one thing I hate about movies directed by Ron Howard is how they're so clinically technical that they lack a sense of creativity. For this movie, a movie supposedly ham-fistedly written, I think his direction was spot on. It allowed the ridiculous plot to unfold at its pace without any interference.

I disagree. It felt rigid and stiff, like the people behind it were apologizing for it. Langdon's disagreements with Teabing and the general glossing over of the Opus Dei stuff seemed to be concessions to not offend the audience. It would've been better if they just reveled in the conspiracy theories and let them unfold. And the movie didn't seem as "puzzly" as the book - like they came up with the solutions to the riddles rather fast, and it wasn't as satisfying as the book.

In spite of that, it was a decent enough movie.

The fact that Harrison Ford didnt play Langdon saddens me.

When Tautou stuck her foot in the water to see if she could walk on it I wanted to cut her deep.
