I don’t know with you but although I don’t idolize Dan Brown, I like his books that I’ve read way back 2004. I have enjoyed the Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons in paperbacks long before I’ve watched their movie adaptations.
With the newly released Angels and Demons movie, to quote Tom Hanks in one of his interviews, is truly “a trip to the renaissance!”

I have been waiting for this day - the opening of Angels and Demons movie. It’s the prequel of Da Vinci Code story. My wife Tina and I were not disappointed when we watched the new collaboration from Tom Hanks, Dan Brown and Director Ron Howard. We watched it at Gateway Cinema 5 on Dolby Digital surround. It’s better that I’ve read the book, been familiar with the story that made me more entertained while watching it on screen.
The story was about alleged ”resurfacing” of the secret anti-church society Illuminati, the main reason why Robert Langdon, a symbologist, (which was played again by Tom Hanks to a tee after his movie with the same character in Da Vinci Code) was flown from Harvard to the Holy City to solve the puzzle behind the Pope’s death and to uncover the plot to annihilate Vatican City using a destructive antimater which was stolen from CERN, a laboratory in Geneva, by members of Illuminati.
It’s amazing how Hollywood people behind this movie’s production had created a replica of Vatican City and almost Rome’s entirety.

So will you go see it ?
Have you read Dan Brown books ?
Do you think it’s blasphemous ?
I say they’re only books and movies.
If you’re faith, regardless of religion, is of a rock, then why worry?
