2 hours 25 minutes race

I think many people who have read the book will have the same anticipation and no bottom of the mind about this film as I do. On the evening of the 19th, it was raining lightly in Beijing. I walked slowly to the cinema and found that all the tickets for "Password" were sold out. I had to buy tickets for 8 pm the next day.
I arrived at the theater early the next day. The first person to enter the theater found the most positive seat and took a sip. Then, when I turned around, the next few rows were basically full, and the seats were full 10 minutes before the opening. I don't know if there are more people who love reading books than people who love watching movies. Compared with the pale movie propaganda, the bestseller's momentum is subtle but its influence is quite extensive and turbulent.
I admire Ron Howard's courage, and indeed, Dan Brown's novels have the urge to bring them to the screen. But for "Digital Castle" and "Angels and Demons", "The Da Vinci Code" is his best and most difficult to interpret a classic. During the whole process of watching the movie, I watched it while recalling the plot in the book. It was like a process of measuring the deviation of the movie with a ruler that I already had in my heart, which made me feel lost. . The filming that is faithful to the original cannot have too much innovation, making the film a real race against the original. The 2 hours and 25 minutes of the run left Hanks and Tatu breathless, but the end result was just them. Just jumping to finish the prescribed route, but the scenery along the way is not taken into account.
Perhaps for audiences who have never read the book, understanding this movie has become the goal, but Howard's performance is really not easy. Maybe this movie can be used as a guide for the book, because I saw it when I went to the bookstore yesterday, The large-scale stills of Hanks, Tatoo, and Reynolds were made into publicity boards for the book "The Da Vinci Code".

The Da Vinci Code quotes

  • Robert Langdon: Now, as you can imagine, the female symbol is its exact opposite. This is called the chalice.

    Sir Leigh Teabing: And the chalice resembles a cup or vessel, or more importantly, the shape of a woman's womb. No, the Grail has never been a cup. It is quite literally this ancient symbol of womanhood. And in this case, a woman who carried a secret so powerful that if revealed, it would devastate the very foundations of Christianity.

    Sophie Neveu: Wait, please. You're saying the Holy Grail is a person? A woman?

    Sir Leigh Teabing: [indicating "The Last Supper"] And it turns out, she makes an appearance right there.

    Sophie Neveu: Hmm. But they are all men.

    Sir Leigh Teabing: Are they? What about that figure on the right hand of our Lord seated in the place of honor, hmm? Flowing red hair. Folded feminine hands. Hint of a bosom, no?

  • Sophie Neveu: Who is she?

    Sir Leigh Teabing: My dear, that's Mary Magdalene.

    Sophie Neveu: The prostitute?

    Sir Leigh Teabing: [insulted] She was no such thing. Smeared by the Church in 591 anno Domini. Poor dear. Mary Magdalene was Jesus' wife.
