Goofs

The cryptex was said to be made by 'Leonardo da Vinci', and the clue to open it refers to Issac Newton's grave. Da Vinci (1452-1519) died 124 years before Newton (1643-1727) was even born, however Robert Langdon says that the cryptex was only designed by da Vinci, not made by him. In the novel, Sophie states that this cryptex was built by her grandfather. See more »

Loved the book? It's hard not to love this.
18 May 2006 | by (Australia) – See all my reviews

Okay, let me start off by saying that I absolutely loved the book - it had me hooked more than Harry Potter - and that's saying something (and no I'm not a 10 year old child)! After hearing about the critics' mainly negative views of the film, I approached it without high expectations, and for that, I was rewarded. What I got was an action-packed film that didn't let up until the dying minutes. This film is incredibly faithful to the book (I'm looking at you, Girl With a Pearl Earring!!) to the point where hardly anything is left out, and only minor things have been changed. The visuals are stunning, the acting of Hanks and Tautou is great - and contrary to certain critics opinions - I felt the emotional connection between them. As always, McKlellan is fun to watch, effortlessly bringing Teabing to life, and Reno suffices as Fache. Bettany is fantastic as Silas. The musical score was as good as the visual look of the film - it paired perfectly with the storytelling. Overall, I left the cinema feeling satisfied, because a great book had been turned into a really good film. Approach this film with little expectation, and you will enjoy the ride. Bravo Ron Howard, for doing such a good job.
