Da Vinci.
So I didn't read the book, so as just as a movie I've got to say. Heh. B+ maybe. The cast including Paul Bettany and Ian Mckellan are great. Tom Hanks. Heh. B-? The movie reminds me alot of the James Patterson adaptations like Kiss the GIrls and Along Came a Spider. Good but not great. Move from clue 1 to clue 2 to the conclusion. Some cheap tricks are used to get out of really filming any action sequences and the car chase looks like it was shot to add another few seconds of film not to really excite anyone. As far as summer movies go, this lacks the pop, or the firepower. As far as thrillers go, where's the thrill? One of Hanks most passionate line is "Get me to a library quickly!" A library? yeah their's a place for daring-do. Still it's well done, tight, and a mostly strong cast make it worth at least a rental, especially if you've never read the book and want to know the basics of the story. B+
