Da Vinci Code


I think the whole problem with this movie is the fact that it seems to attack the catholic religion. I know that if I was a more devout catholic I would probably be hugely offended by this movie. It shows how the Catholics are willing to hire a hit man, an albino one at that, in order to keep control over the faith. Not only is the movie depicting extreme cases of hardcore belief, whipping yourself anyone, but it also shows how the whole religion is based on what is claimed to be a lie. I think that this movie was made to cause controversy and make people angry, and it did a great job. The movie also follows the book WAY too closely, there's even a few parts that are word for word. This is a problem, but it's also a tricky thing to solve, because way too many movies get criticised for changing from the book too much. Poor Dan Brown, first he makes it too much like the book, and then Angels and Demons is completely different from the book. He just can't seem to get it right.
