When I went to watch the movie I had heard from lot of my friends that you need to have read the book before you see the movie. after seeing the movie I kind of second their views.
The book written by Dan Brown is nothing less than I masterpiece. The way the author goes about unfolding the mystery is awesone. Though I cant comment on what is written is truth or false but the way it is presented actually makes you believe that whatever author says is truth.
The same is captured in the movie. The director had a tough job of trying to show all the incidents that happen in the novel, and has he done a marvelous job on that. However in trying to do so, the movie has become a very fast paced movie and if you are not aware of the story you tend to loose track. I had read the story long back and as soon the movie started the entire story came rushing to my head. I actually helped two of my friends who had not read the book to understand the movie, and at the end of it they aboslutely loved the movie.
The work done by the cast of the movie is comendable. The way Tom Hanks portrays Robert Langdon is reallly great. And the work done by the female actress ( cant remember her name at the moment), portraying sophie is really good...
In a nutshell a must watch movie, whether you have read the book or not....
