that Dan Brown movie
In a fit of writing procrastination, we went to see Angels and Demons this afternoon and I’m quite surprised to say that we both liked it. By all accounts its a stupid book but the film kept me amused for 2+ hours. And maybe I’m dumb but I didn’t guess the ending. Yeah, its full of convenient coincidences but no more than any other Hollywood screenplay. A worthy way to spend an afternoon.

I loved it. I didn’t spot all the reversals, either, so that was good. And the music is fabulous.I have it on permanent loop at the moment while I write Star Wars. Much angst, which is very useful. *g*

I agree… an enjoyable bit of nonsense.

I read the book on holiday in 2006 and decided then and there I’d go and see it if they made a movie – the book was dreadfully written, but it had a fast pace and I reckoned it would make a pretty exciting dumb movie.
And haha it did! So much better than The Da Vinci Code.

Vastly better than DaVinci, well, it was actually a thriller, not whatever that talking head chace movie that the DaVini bore was. Me and Touls were sufficiently amused by it, including all its sillyness. I did guess the ending twenty minutes in though.
