In Theaters: The DaVinci Code

If you haven't heard the buzz about this film you must have been living on another planet for the past couple of years. By now everyone should know what the story is about and why it's so controversial, that being said I will get right to it.
Tom Hanks plays the lead role as Robert Langdon, our superhero symbol interpreter that finds himself in the middle of an ancient conflict regarding Jesus Christ's alleged wife Mary Magdalene. Sectors of "The Church" want to keep this a well guarded secret because it would shake the very foundation of the Christian Religion. There you go, that's it in a nutshell, that's what all the fuss is about. I'm not going to go into the controversy surrounding the issue because after all it's just a movie right?
Hanks does a pretty good job as being the always in the dark ( literally ) Langdon as he runs around with co star Audrey Tautou trying to find the truth. Tautou continues to flex her muscles as an american movie star after bursting on to the scene in "A Very Long Engagement", she plays perfectly against Hanks and carries her part with conviction. Hanks was Hanks, and I don't mean that in a bad way. This film confirms that fact that Hanks basically just has to show up in a film and the cash register starts ringing. Despite the controversy the film is doing pretty well.
So the question remains, is it worth seeing? If you want to see an intriguing film that's a pretty good mystery, yes go see it. If you are looking for some spiritual insight into the life of Jesus Christ, skip the film and hit an afternoon mass.
