I saw Da Vinci Code last night..-

had loved the novel..

and for a very long time avoided watching the movie adaptation, but but well couldnt resist yesterday, when it came on Sony Pix..and damn it would have been a better decision to have avoided it forever

badly directed, terribleee editing, and how on earth did Tom Hanks act in such a dry manner he had one single "clueless" expression through and through😕 this kind of a performance coming from a biggie actor like him..just not done

only the narrative portion about the Knights Templar and the focus on the portrait of Last Supper was nicely done..liked Alfred Molina as Aringarossa..rest all were blehhh🥱

++++++++++

not to hurt anybody's religious sentiments, but what Dan Brown wrote about Mary - is it true? did she really carry the lineage forward?

also was that really her in the portrait - the one sitting besides Christ, it was originally supposed to be John the Apostle..but there are theories that its Mary..?

just some queries, again no intention to hurt the sentiments😊

Da Vinci code is a great book. That Dan Brown is a gifted writer.

My beliefs about Jesus are in alignment with what is said in Bible.

There is a lot evidence against this theory and supporting the fact that Jesus died on that cross.

I never approved of the way the movies screening was disrupted.

I didn't want to watch the movie

Book was something I read and though I completely disagreed with the content I still maintain that he is a very good story teller.

Tom Hanks was one of the reasons why I didn't want to watch this film. I was totally disenchanted with Toma Hanks by that time.

Didn't know that Alfred Molena was there in that film though. He is an awesome actor.⭐️

^^ Oh cool, so I guess it is just to be taken as fictional piece of work then..I agree that the novel was too good, it had the hook to keep one engaged till the last page..😊

yeah Alfred is amazing, he fits into any role just so well⭐️

It is a much debated topic with both sides doing a research and coming with something that supports their arguments

There is movie called Chacolat with Julitte Binoche in the lead and Alfred as the main male lead who is antagonist.It's sound track is Oscar nominated one of my all time favourite album.

Molena was awesome in that movie as a village head who follows traditons and rituals so strictly and forces his village people also to follow them strictly

thats the case with almost all religions I guess, the problem arises due to different/ mis-interpretations I suppose..even though Jainism is far smaller in size..there are various divisions within it too, I mean like different sects within it..with too much controversy and debates happening all the time..about whose interpretation of the texts is more accurate..

at the end of the day actually one of our gods said this as well - "Syadvada in our metaphysics is a doctrine that the ways of looking at a thing/ situation/ circumstance are infinite in number" hence leading to more arguments around every topic..since no theory is absolute but rather on relative side..

ayoo..will watch Chacolat then😃 I thought he was amazing in Spiderman-2 as well..
