I always thought this book would make better movie than the DaVinci Code, just because there was more action and suspense. The murders were pretty gruesome, and, you don’t have to sit through the history lesson. Where it was obviously impossible to squeeze all the information and detail contained in the DaVinci Code in to a 2 hour or even a 4 hour movie, fits that movie mold much better. That being said, some how, Ron Howard just cant seem to make these books into blockbusters, as much as everyone wishes they would be (myself included). The movie is good, better than DaVinci Code easily, but there is just something missing. I don’t know what it is (maybe it’s just me).
Robert Langdon – Tom Hanks is once again called in to solve a crime. During the conclave, the process where Catholic cardinals gather in Rome to elect a new Pope, someone has abducted four of the members and is threatening to kill them (one each hour) until the final act, the destruction of Vatican City itself. Religion and science collide once again as Langdon must decipher the clues and rescue the cardinals with the help of a pretty young Italian scientist Vittoria Vetra – Ayelet Zurer, while he tries find the mole within the Vatican, all the while being hindered and obstructed by the ones he’s trying to help. A race against the clock thriller with a pretty spectacular twist ending.
All in all the movie is good, I just wanted great. Ron Howard, Tom Hanks, good book, come on. I want great. So here’s the question, is it What-to-Watch?…Absolutely, Yes it is, better than most of the movies this year, enjoy.
