This film is sick on so many levels, it's absolutely beyond my comprehension. Though director is known for his appreciation of unconventional film making, I could never imagine that anyone with good mental health would ever direct, produce and star in such a film. The amount of sodomy, violence and deviance is unbelievable. Having sex with a woman while beating her and chopping her head off while still doing it; delivering a newborn baby and immediately forcing it to oral or any kind of sex (yes I do realize it was not an actual baby, but still); not to mention the scene including the "actor", his brother, his wife and his own son ... I don't get offended by lots of things I see or hear, but it's not enough to say that I am absolutely disgusted with this one. Simply shocked. Speechless.

The Da Vinci Code
(2006)
So boring!
19 May 2006
I must admit I never liked Tom Hanks and this certainly won't change my mind about that. He is simply not interesting at all.
After reading the book last year, I was telling everyone how thrilling it is and when heard about movie, my first guess was it's going to be much better. Well, seems like no one should've expected that. Characters are not well developed at all, and the story tends to get really slowed.
Simply, I think it should have been done lot better, with more dynamical scenes and getting it little more mysterious. Especially, because Opus Dei is not mentioned as much as they might have wanted for us to think.
As far as I'm concerned, total failure due to expectations.
