Reviewer: Patricia Guth
Reviewer's Opinion: Personally, I admired this cine though, at 2 1/2 hours, it gets a bit annoying at times. I saw the blur with two friends. Two of us had apprehend the book, one had not. The acquaintance who hadn't apprehend the book begin the adventure ambagious and the storyline a bit difficult to follow. If, however, you were one of the millions who apprehend Dan Brown's novel, you'll be afflicted by how able-bodied the cine follows the book and I anticipate you'll absolutely adore this film.

Due to the aggregate of abandon in the movie, I accept (as did my friends) that it should be rated R. I would not accede demography a 13-year-old to see The DaVinci Code. I anticipate some of the abandon (in accurate the absolution by Silas) could accept been adumbrated rather than acted out on the screen. It was rather disturbing.

As a Christian, I was not affronted by the cine or the book and I didn't airing abroad cerebration that aggregate I've believed all these years may be inaccurate. I anticipate the admirers is added than able to abstracted actuality from fiction.
