DaVinci Code

Watched the show ytd. And I'm utterly disappointed. Even with the exciting story plot and Tom Hanks, the movie just seemed so boring. Not enough action. Not enough details. I wonder how people who didn't read the book would understand... And the characters... weren't what I expected.

In the movie...
Jacques Saunière -- yea. He looks old. But doesn't look like someone powerful... Hello! He's the Grand master!!
Silas -- okay. He's an albino. But where are his dark red pupils?
Captain Bezu Fache -- He certainly doesn't look like a bull to me.
Robert Langdon -- Well, Tom Hanks is great!
Agent Sophie Neveu -- At least she fits the description.
Sir Leigh Teabing -- He's too thn! He's supposed to be portly! And I expected him to have a beard!!! okay, but that's not in the book.
Bishop Aringarosa -- erm. I don't know.. Kar says he looks like the baddie, Dr. Octo, in Spiderman. lol

Okay, maybe my expectations are too high. But, I'm sure people who have read the book would agree with me!!! At least kar's friends think likewise too.

Hmmm... If the movie makes it to the top 10 in the box office, it would only be because people who read the book and love it wanna check out if the movie is as good, and because people who didn't read the book, but heard of the controversy about the book, wanna find out what's the big hoo-ha about it.

My Verdict : (2 out of 5)
Thumbs down. Read the book.
