Haha, it is one of the very few books that I felt was certifiably stupid. No offense, it just seemed to be a bit cheesy.

I saw it today, never having read the book, I thought it was superb! Though, I question its PG13 rating. It should be rated R in my opinion.

As always, the book was so much better. If I try to take it on the basis of judging the movie soley (ignoring what I know from the book), I'd give the movie a 3.5 out of 5. It wasn't a great movie, but certainly was not bad. I thought Paul Bettany as Silas was a perfect casting, but I've doubted Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon from the beginning. I always pictured Langdon as more of a Pierce Brosnan type.

Please read the book if you haven't done so. It is a fantastic read that really keeps you interested from cover to cover, as well as the first Robert Langdon book, Angels & Demons. And though it doesn't feature Robert Langdon, Digital Fortress was also very good.

i'd give it a solid 4 out of 5. i saw it tonight and thought it was excellent. I never read the book but im sure its better at least thats what everyone says. It's better then the rest of the crap at the theater right now thats for sure.

more protestors today

I will start by saying that part of me hated it and part of me really liked it. I read the book and I could not really even find a single detail that I thought the movie left out. Personally, I thought the Silas part was very poorly cast. As far as Robert Langdon goes, Tom Hanks did a good job, but Nicholas Cage or a younger Harrison Ford would have played the part better. For a great book adapted to movie, they did a good job.

Thought the movie was solid as well. Started to read the book but never got the time to finish it. Guess I won't now that I know. The movie gets a solid 4 out of 5 in my opinion. Only thing that I absolutly hated was the ending. They tried to make the movie less offensive with the whole "its all what you believe" speech. I guess they thought it was inportant to try to make it less offensive. Like i said, just down right cheesy and killed it
