They've cast Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon.
Eh, don't how I feel about that. Don't get me wrong, Tom Hanks is an incredible actor... but I don't know if I see him as Langdon just yet. I guess, I can't really judge until the movie comes out... And I reeeeeeeeally hope they cast Kate Beckinsale as Sophie Neveu. I think she's perfect for the part. |

I wrote this on my Xanga:
QUOTE I'd like to say that The Da Vinci Code was a freaking awesome movie, but I can't. As a movie, I felt like it dove straight into the race to find the Holy Grail. It was a bit sudden. When compared to the book, it was lacking in many areas. I swear, when I read the book, Langdon and Neveu cracked through WAY MORE STEPS to find out the eventual secret. The movie felt like it was shortened. And, I thought it lacked in showing us more art pieces and history stuff, because that had to be the coolest part of the book. The movie did have its good parts. Silas was portrayed perfectly and he was scary - the theatre gasped a few times. It was a good thriller - fast paced. Just the fact that it stars Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou is reason enough to check out this movie. But I'd still take the book over the movie version of The Da Vinci Code any day. There's nothing like sitting at a table and reading for 8 straight hours. =) So basically, if you already read the book, be prepared to be disappointed. But if you're just watching it as a movie, you'll enjoy it. It's definitely not a waste of money, just not as good as I thought it would be. |
