The Da Vinci Code is entertaining despite all the negative reviews: "es the pace is a bit slow at the beginning, yes Audrey Tautou and Tom Hanks are terribly miscast (I would much have preferred Clive Owen, Matthew Fox – the Lost lead, a younger Harrison Ford or Pierce Brosman or an older Christian Bale), but ultimately the experience is satisfying. Ian McKellen is brilliant. The dialogues are

Movie Verdict: Da Vinci Code Review: "I didn't read the book, but I really enjoyed the Da Vinci Code. The movie is long, but it moved pretty quickly. There was a lot of information and mystery to sort through so the movie didn't seem that long. Some of the theories and the facts are questionable even to someone that hasn't done any research, but it is a fun ride. I can see why many people will

Movie Reviews: X3 and The Da Vinci Code: "oth films have critics on both sides. The hype surrounding the Da Vinci Code has been, at times, unbearable. On one side you have religious zealots decrying the sacrilege. On the other, you have the slew of critics panning the film for poor acting, pacing, and for just being a bad film. X3 has seen surprisingly little hype, but was greatly anticipated

canagape: The Da Vinci Code: "Well, I've been curious about all the hype for quite a while now. I didn't get a chance (take the time?) to read the book before seeing the movie, so maybe I didn't get the full story. But now I've seen the movie, and this is my review ...."

blog.myspace.com/matthewpatrickwalsh: "Continuing my reviews of summer movies, I saw the Da Vinci Code over the weekend. Not just once, but twice. Again, let me qualify my review. I have read the book, as well as Dan Brown's first Robert Langdon adventure, Angels and Demons. In reading both, you quickly realize that Dan Brown has something against Catholicism; the plot for Angels and Demons

TattMan's Thoughts on Life: Da Vinci Code: "It is late, but I just returned from viewing the much talked about Da Vinci Code. I should premise this statement with the fact I head read this book, as well as Angels & Demons and Deception Point, also by Dan Brown. This movie, on it's own, revealed on major thing to me, and it isn't what many would think it would be."

Eric Ong's DayBook & Others...: My Review For The Da Vinci Code's Movie: "The structure of the movie, is exactly the same as the book. There is no change to the ending, despite some rumours that it will be different. Naturally, some of the detailed explanation that's given in the book, especially many three-way dialogue between Sophie- Robert-Leigh, have to be summarized in order to pace this

Movie Review: The Da Vinci Code at Trade Relic: "I saw the much debated Da Vinci Code movie to see if it indeed lived up to the book’s status. I thought it was great hearing Dan Brown, the author, comment about the movie following the book almost word for word. Any movie that can follow the motive of the author should be delightful. Like I said, should be.I read the Da Vinci Code about two years

This is one of the few movies that I have ever seen that did not stray from the original text. (Unlike the movie version of Starship Troopers, from which Robert Heinlein is still spinning in his grave.) After a little while, I even bought into Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon. The majority

The Da Vinci Code Movie: "I think I have to preface my discussion on the Da Vinci Code with an explanation of my feelings on Christianity. You can find some of my past thoughts on it here and here.I have a love hate relationship with Jesus having been on both ends of his legacy. On the negative, I have been terrorized and disowned by my family, even beaten in his name. From an early age of 3 I

Quite different then what I expected. It was actually a bit action packed with on the edge of your seat moments. I was very pleased.

As I was changing channels the other day I heard two preachers discussing this, to which one said 'If you think one movie cant completely destroy your faith,

Outdoor Fun Screenplay: "MetroMix - How can a film contain so many clues yet remain utterly clueless? The screen adaptation of “The Da Vinci Code” treats the Dan Brown novel with a reverence it does not deserve and from which it does not benefit."

blog.myspace.com/trolinder: "The Da Vinci Code...why screw up the last 20 minutes and why not keep the first cryptex scenerio in the movie. The movie tried to cover too much ground in 2 hours and 15 minutes. It seemed like everyone involved had no ambition to make te movie good as well. Even Ron Howard considered it a rush job."

The Green Knight: "I'm a big fan of Audrey Tautou. Amelie was one of my favorite movies, ever. Also a good one, God is Great, I'm Not. I even liked Dirty Pretty Things, although it was grim and depressing. The Libertine was a hoot. And A Very Long Engagement was just gorgeous.

The Da Vinci Code Movie: Better Than the Book: "My wife and I read The Da Vinci Code two years ago. Describing the book, I used 'clumsy,' 'tedious,' and 'implausible' in one sentence. When I saw that the film was getting panned by the critics, I was not very excited about seeing it, but Friday is 'date day' for my wife and me, and we decided to judge for ourselves. I thought the movie was better

Review: The Da Vinci Code - Cinematical: "The thing is, though, that seeing a film like Da Vinci with a bunch of other cynical critics is a bit like hanging out in the junior high cafeteria; once the popular kids start picking on the dorky guy in the corner, he's dead meat, and not a lot of other kids are going to stand up in defense of him."

The first da vinci code review: "Surprisingly, Hanks is the only American in the large cast, which features Sir Ian McKellen in a strong supporting role as the manic Holy Grail historian Sir Leigh Teabing. In a gripping scene set at his mansion in the French countryside he reveals the secrets of Leonardo Da Vinci's famous painting The Last Supper."

LIBERTAS Review of The Da Vinci Code: "One of the first reviews of the The Da Vinci Code is out via the London Telegraph.

The Daily Brief: Review: The DaVinci Code: "As a treasure hunt movie, National Treasure was more fun and edge of your seat exciting. It’s the subject matter which makes “The Code” more interesting. Mix fact with fiction with old mythology with a healthy dose of stretching ideas to fit a point of view, and you’ve got yourself a powerful brain bender. "
