The day before yesterday, I went to the cinema with Xiaojiao to watch this movie. I think most of it was directed at the original work and Audrey Dotu. 140 minutes passed quickly. For those of us who have read the original, we are basically looking back at the novel and finding the gap between the movie and the novel. Perhaps it is the relationship between film capacity and narrative requirements. The film only emphasizes the clue of Langdon and Sophie, while greatly weakening other clues, such as the bishop and Silas, the mentor, and the sheriff played by Renault. It’s not clear, maybe anyone who hasn’t read the original will be confused. Everyone is chasing the whereabouts of the Holy Grail for their own different purposes. The inner world of each character is very important to the whole story. I think the film is not very fulfilling in terms of character handling, especially Renault, which made him lose Enough space for performance. The shaping of Silas, who believes in perseverance but is sad, is considered to be relatively successful.
Should the religious beliefs that have been established over the millennia be maintained, destroyed or rebuilt? Although we are not Christians, we can feel the shock that this crisis of faith brings to people. The novel incorporates almost all the elements that a best-selling novel should have: religion, art, reasoning, suspense, murder, emotion... I think this is Dan Brown's best novel. Since the movie should be loyal to the original, the audience will have no suspense when watching it. What they can do is to compare every shot with the book, but this is the thing that this kind of movie is most afraid of. In fact, regardless of the original work, the movie should be pretty good, not in vain for the price of the movie ticket, not to mention a movie bookmark.
