Yes very much worth a watch!!

I never really fancied it but the mrs kept on saying it was brilliant so watched it and she was right, it is a fantastic film.

It was better than the book.

But I thought the book was crap. So make of that what you will.

It's okay. Don't get your hopes too high and you'll enjoy it.

They miss a lot of the book out, so in that way, it is better than the book...

It's almost as rubbish as the book. I'd sooner watch my cat being run over tbh.

I've just given The Da Vinci Code an hour of my life, I've now turned over to C5+1 to watch Die Hard, again. I'm going to picture Tom Hanks as Hans Gruber instead and laugh loudly as he falls to his death at the end.

done both. No way is the film better.

Back to the OP, the DVC is indeed fantastic. It's fantasy from start to finish.

It's not a bad film.

Hanks & Tatou are awful though. Totally wooden acting.

in some respects it was unfilmable as sooo many people had read the book but it is a pretty good stab.

angels and demons was a better book and film...

but a very decent effort
