Da vinci's best! - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

the movie was great ,,,, it is very entertaining.. the cast and the disrection is really one of the best of Ron howard..but the book is quite better and exciting....

Major upset - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

Nothing like the excitement of the book, this movie was slapped together and it clearly shows. No actor cohesiveness and the convesion from book to film is pretty predictable. Not too mention a long long movie that almost put me out....

Fell slightly below the bar - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

Many felt the Da Vinci code would make a great movie, but while I was reading the book, I began to realize that it could never be well adapted. The book is actually fairly well written and entertaining (please stop with all the religious attacks and read the book as what it is, a NOVEL), but it just doesn't translate well to the big screen. One of the joys of the book is trying to solve all of the mysteries as you read it. Some might argue that feeling can occur in movies as well, but in movies we all know that with time constraints they have to push the solutions at you rather than give you the time to absorb it. This is the case with Da Vinci Code. The sad part about it is that after seeing this movie, you will know all the answers but never have the satisfaction of discovering them yourself. Again, when I refer to answers, I don't mean some kind of religious enlightenment; I mean understanding the codes in the movie. So to wrap this all up, I would prefer that everyone read the book (because quite frankly this movie isn't the greatest) instead of seeing this, but if you must, it's actually a lot of fun and will be very interesting to those who haven't read the book. Thanks for your time, have a good night at the movies :). Overall Rating --> 8.5/10 Rating to those who have read it --> 7.5/10 -Cat

Don't waste your money or your time - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

As one of the critics said...the book is quicker to read than the movie is to watch... For all the hype there is virtually no story line and for all the lineup of actors and directors...a high school drama department could put on a better show.

Good movie, but sending the wrong message - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

I just saw The Da Vinci Code and I have not read the book and I didn't know what to expect. While I was watching The Da Vinci Code I thought it was a good thriller movie but it's just sending the wrong message nasically in The Da Vinci Code they are saying that Jesus and Mary Magalene had sex and had a child, that is all wrong and I couldn't follow that through the movie. They try to make it seem real like it did happen and try to get you to believe but not me. Those of you who have read and loved the book and liked the previews go head to the movies. But for the rest of you who din't like the previews or don't want to support this message go see something else or stay at home and wait for X Men: The Last Stand. I am very dissapionted in The Da Vinci Code but atleast I got X Men: The Last Stand to wait for.

A solid movie with or without the book - The Da Vinci Code Reviews

At times a bit hard to follow if you haven't read the book, this nevertheless is a movie with an intriguing storyline. Ron Howard has done a masterful job trying to explain some of the book's more complex plot points through excellent visuals. The action never flags and keeps you involved throughout, with acting that is solid and laudable. This is a movie, not the book, and it should stand and be judged on its own. It succeeds every way on that level. It's a great summer flick worth both your time and money.

Yuck yuck yuck - The Da Vinci Code Reviews
