The most talked about storyline of this generation.

I have watched the movie with my colleague just now. 1525 show at the new The Cathay.

You might expect me to have my opinion about this storyline. But, well. My comments about this show will be more on the movie, as in regarding the quality of the show and such.

The various filming location made it very exotic. I do not quite like the camera effects because it was not 'dark' enough given the location where the murder was comited and inside such old place. Not eerie enough. Even before the show is launched, I was doubting that Tom Hanks fits the character of Robert Langdon. I was expecting a younger, more robust man, with sharper facial features. Because, if you have read the description, Robert is a young man about 30ish, being athletic, he was even able to outswim the 'school team' swimmers. Think Hanks... Well, He is good enough for the smart aspect of Robert, but there should be someone else out there who will fit the character better. Overall, the casting was good, very fitting for the other characters. The part that wasnot that good is that the story moved too fast in the movie. Unlike in the book, the movie did not show out the methods the characters used to solve the questions. The methods, is where the excitment lies, the quite painstaking process, the mind grueling steps. Yummy!

Myself as a Christian, hmmm... Well, the show, actually the storyline does have a lot of doubt. Dan Brown does throw in quite some facts. I think he meant those as facts because those things of events that happened really does exists. But does the whole sequences of event since 2 thousand years ago till present day really follows what was described in the book?

I was not disturbed after watching the movie. It is a blockbuster. I will recognise a good movie when i see one. I will enjoy a good movie when I go and see one. I will enjoy the movie for the quality when I am seeing one. And The Da VinCi Code qualifies as a blockbuster, because of the casting, because of the director, because of the filming location, because of the hardwork the actors put in. I was not disturbed because it has not moved my faith.

To those Christians out there, if you have been advised by your Church leaders not to watch, please do not be stuborn. To those whose Church did have sharing sessions regarding this issue, and does not strongly object, and if you want to watch, please have a clear mind.

To the others who have not read the book, PLEASE READ THE BOOK FIRST!! Or else you will get utterly csufneod. PELSAE RAED THE BOOK FRSIT!!

The church stand is that we should know better what is better for ourselves. I understand that.

The last shocking truth for tonight folks: Dan Brown is a Christian. The book is not anti-christian if you noticed. Go find out for yourseld what i meant.

Tomorriw is another Marching day. Police Day Parade is just around the corner.

Thanks Daniel for going on a M:I:iii show with me last weekend!
