Yesterday was fun, Kimi, Sabrina and I seen The Da Vinci Code which was based off a novel by Dan Brown called The Da Vinci Code It was a good movie, mostly if you read the book and you are not a religious zelious. The only real negative thing I can say about the movie is that they made it to church “friendly”, they removed some of the main plot line things, the background of the Opus Dei, well the background that was in the book, I do not know the real background of them. Other then removing that and a couple other things I can not think of right now, they removed the romantic stresses that went on between Langdon and Sophie. They did not have the tension at all, they did not even shack up in the end of the movie like they do in the book. They also changed the ending completely because in the book Sophie’s Grandmother is the one who tells Langdon information about her, where Mary Magdlon was moved (or hinted at it), and the Grandmother reuinited Sophie and her brother; this happened in the book. With all these things missing including the romantic tensions the movie watcher could not get hooked into the movie unless they were interested in these type of things. I would see it again or buy it on dvd, but thats just me.
