[j671]

one of the must see movies this year for me

 

[kiddin like jason]

I just read Angels and Demons in preparation for the upcoming movie...and they are literally the exact same book.
They are?

 

[drunken cow]

Should I read the book? I got nothing else better to do.

 

[HankHill]

Not gonna read the book, but i'll watch the movie.

i dunno about the exact same book..


but he does have a certain formula..


digital fortress and the other one have similar plot structures.

but he's such a great actor.

Sorry i never read the books, so i don't understand how the character is suppose to be

 

[dmxgod]

I need to re-read the book again..not sure if i'll have time with a busy schedule..but i was sorta disappointed in the Da Vinci Code movie..the book istill read on a regular..it's good imo..

 

[2wenty thre3]

Hopefully it turns out to be a good movie. I won't get my hopes up... I really enjoyed reading the book.

 

[he told on me]

Been waiting myself, I thought the cern scientist lady would look like a model, from the way described in the book. Illunminati, finally going public. Death ofthe cardinal, interesting plot; aww I cant wait for the movie, I want to see how the disabled cern director look also. I bet he have a top of the line wheerchair equiped with flat screens. Most definetly a sell out.

I read them both a while ago and I cant tell the difference between the two.

I'm re-reading A&D so that I can at least know what's going on in the movie.

He has too much face recognition. I'm not saying they needed a nobody, but it's %#*$+!% Tom Hanks. Even beyond that, he's just not theperson I envisioned playing Langdon at all. At least that awful, long haircut is gone...

 

[Nica301]

I want to read the book before this movie comes out. This looks movie looks pretty decent

 

[orangatrang]

I actually liked Angels & Demons more so than The Da Vinci Code. But yeah, can't wait to see it.

I still don't get how they were permitted to film this movie at the Vatican.
The Pope's been urging folks to boycott Dan Brown's work for awhile now, haha.

 

[kb8isclutch]

the book was

, hopefully the movie will do it justice

 

[fraij da 5 11]

Back to the top...

 

[marlsj]

I wanna see this movie.

 

[notaclevaname]

this movie better not disappoint me.

 

[smedroc]

Movie was pretty good. Better than i'd thought it would be after watching the Da Vinci code.

Aint touchin the book though. I love the detail the book goes into but obviously you can't fit all that into one film.

 

[fraij da 5 11]

Pretty disappointed.

Wheres the Illuminati Diamond????

Cross keys is the last brand? WEAK.

No battle between Langdon and the bad guy?

Seemed to me that in the movie they acted like being at St. Peters tomb was no big deal at all... the book gave me a feeling of reverence as they made their way to the tomb.

One thing i did like though was the visuals of the Cardinals deaths... they were almost exactly how i had imagined them when I read the book.

oh well

 

[Jordan8]

I liked the movie didnt read the book so I cant compare it makes me want to see the Vatican

The scientist chick

 

[endemic415]

hate to say it but the book is way better, mainly because of all the details it gets into

the movie switched up a couple of stuff but it's still pretty good


People that read the book, where was the Director of CERN? dissappointin

i hope the DVD gives an alternate ending
