The script and dialogue is lazily written and everything is spelled out for the viewer bit by bit and with nothing left to the viewer's imagination. While the book itself overcame it's controversial origins and became a best seller with critical reviews mostly positive, the dulled down scripted theatrical remake has done the exact opposite. Still, if you can understand it's a work of fiction and leave it at that, you should be able to get past this and simply take it as a fictional work.
The film presents them as such empirical truths and with such manner of fact that it just rubs anyone with differing beliefs the wrong way. The Catholic church in particular took great offense to the idea of Mary being Jesus' wife and the idea they had children together. īased off the best selling novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code garnered a good deal of controversy upon its theatrical release as it did when the book was first published. I'm going to view the next films due to myself checking out the books in comparison, so look out for my next reviews. There was opportunity but sadly I found this tiresome and muddled. Ron Howard wouldn't have been my first choice and his team-up with Akiva Goldsman lacks a coherent story. I enjoyed the ending and Zimmer's wonderful film score during that conclusion. How many characters are connected to this massive conspiracy? The book works better in this story-line style due to the nature of airport fiction in general, but the screenplay doesn't distinguish itself enough and the long running time is too much. The issue with Hanks might even be the films screenplay, which relies too heavily on suspension of disbelief. The actor is no slouch but I felt he was miscast in the central role.
I've read Angels and Demons so my initial issue was the central casting of Tom Hanks. My first reactions to this film will be quite negative as the long running time and convenient style twists and turns don't hold up. I found it interesting they ignored Angels and Demons as the first entry and created Da Vinci Code as the origin story-line. I missed the train of when this book was hugely popular and the world was talking about Dan Brown endlessly. The Da Vinci Code has been and released to incredible box office appeal.
