Da Vinci Code Movie – Reviews!

The DVC movie comes out this weekend and from the reviews: it's horrible.

Well, it's nice to feel justified in my not liking the plot. Oh, I know, people will say I didn't like it because it mocks Christianity, but it's not even that, it's just that the story wasn't any good.

As a mystery novel it was rather predicable at times and apparently that is really coming out on screen.

Now, Harry Potter has all sorts of theological issues but I at least find that an entertaining read (note: this is not to endorse the HP books, because my advice would be that they're dangerous).

Most of the critics are just horrified at how boring the DVC movie actually is. Here are some review sites:

Rotten Tomatoes

IGN

Rotten Tomatoes has links to a ton of reviews. Check them out to decide if you want to drop your 50 bucks (by the time you add popcorn and a small coke to the package) to see a movie that is dull (review the book if you've read it and try and imagine it on the big screen: review the dialog and chase scenes to decide if this will be a "thriller" or not)
