I was raised Catholic, but even so this movie was entirely foreign to me and I didn't understand most of it. Maybe the sequel will be better. WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read MoreI've seen this movie several times - horrible history, actually suggesting Rome was torn apart by mobs of violent Christians! and that the witch hunts of Medieval times were actually because the church inheritantly was trying to destroy women. (how much sense does that make?) Story strange and convoluted also.
But there is one thing this movie had I loved - one of the most beautiful scores I've ever heard. I actually bought the soundtrack, something I rarely do. Good performances by Hanks and McKellan also, and if you love art, some glorious scenes of Paris, churches, and the Louvre. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read Moredisappointed in the adaptation to the screen. I understand that you can't capture the whole book in anything less than a mini series. But they watered it down as well to seemingly appease the christian protesters. It also seemed like they through it together without much thought for building suspense. if i hadn't read (Listened) to the book I'm not sure if I could have followed it very well.
