DaVinci Code - the Film

[Jazzman]

I very much enjoyed the book, but then I usually don’t get to haughty about the works I read. It was a fun little adventure tale, and to those with enough imagination there’s no reason to not believe it, just a little bit.

The movie, though, I’m slightly more skeptical of. I think that this is one of those instances where it’ll either be awesome or stupid, with no gray area in between. If too much of the puzzle is left out, it’ll kill the spirit of the book. If too much is left in, it’ll come off like a “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego” episode. Thin line to walk. Fortunately Howard, Hanks and Tautou are all very reliable and quite talented, so I’ll definitely go see it and try to remain optimistic.
