Okay, I saw The Da Vinci Code. Back in May I said I would wait and – if still interested – I would see it. To be honest, I had forgotten about it until it showed up at the cheap theater in town and my daughter asked to go.
It was good. Not as good as the book, naturally, but good. Of course, much of the story was left out, much of it was just breezed over, many parts were oversimplified, but I wasn’t disappointed with how it was done.
There are some morals to be drawn about goal setting, when a long series of people have lived and died to protect or destroy something over a 2,000-year period. That’s impressive. And there is a lesson about discerning truth from error that touches us today.
But mostly the movie is a good site-seeing tour for some pretty cool places that we all ought to visit. So I recommend sitting next to someone who has been there, because it is pretty cool when that person leans over and says, "I’ve been there" half a dozen times.
