Good summary, 29 May 2006
8/10
Author: jsmits from Rotterdam, Netherlands

Hollywood has its limitations. They dislike dialog. Well, The Da Vinci Code book contains lots of puzzles that need to be presented, explored, solved and explained. Ron Howard does an admirable job in condensing these parts of the book a bit, and stretching the chases and escapes a tad, and thus creating a very consumable "summary", "reader's digest" of Dan Brown's book. I saw lots of movies of this length that were boring at times, but The Da Vinci Code is entertaining and interesting from the start. Tom Hanks adds another type of character to his long list. Also admirable for a Hollywood movie is the use of original language: English, Latin and French. The only scene where they probably messed up was in the church dialog with the nun, but I would have to re-read the book to see if maybe I am mistaken.
