What did you think of the movie "The DaVinci Code"?

I finally saw it the other night. It was actually better than I thought it would be.

1. Saw the previews, yawned, went on with my life.

The book was fun. But the previews convinced me that I'd already 'seen' the movie.

4. I really liked it.

Wasn't expecting to, but the clues/twisty turny stuff, some historical stuff, hooked me. Fasinated by the whole premise of what the holy grail really was.

this was the movie, the book, although I only glanced at a page or two at a shop, was very poorly written imho. Something like the Celestine Prophesies - great premise, gawdawful writing.

5. I thought it did a great job

Was pretty faithful to the book, which is what you want when the book is that popular. I enjoyed both immensely.

6. I really enjoyed the movie.

I was interested in the story the entire time, as I read the book AFTER I saw the movie. When I finally read the book, I liked it even more. "The Da Vinci Code" (the actual novel) felt like the literary version of "24" as I was reading it.

7. I could only tolerate half of it, then stopped it and watched a

comedy.

8. The book was A LOT better. Sorry, I know that is the standard

response but, in this case it is true.
