Movie Day!

I know i am quite outdated and left out...but i cant help it :(

I just watched the much anticipated movie of the year last nite ...... THE DA VINCI CODE

Yup, the very controversial movie about the Catholic Church and its very existence and source.

I am a Catholic myself, since birth...i come from a very err..catholic family and everyone has been telling me...NO NO , you musnt support this movie ... its against our Catholic Church.

But then again, i've read the book a year ago...and i found the book quite interesting. The first few chapters of the book was quite monotonous...Robert Langdon and Sophie being chased round and round Paris.

I only actually sit up and concentrate on the book when they reached Leigh Teabing's house, a British who's very obsessed with the Holy Grail. Where Teabing explained that Jesus was a mortal, who even married Mary Magdalene and even had a daughter!!! *eyes open wide*

I must really say Dan Brown is a very good writer. He has managed to put this and that together and make a new point altogether. Therefore, making people actually believe that Jesus IS a mortal.

Before i read the book, i have received comments from others who told me DONT READ THE BOOK, MY FAITH WAVERED AFTER I READ IT.hmmmm

Still i read it la...

But here i am ... still a Catholic :P

After all the hullaballoo about the book, a movie based on the book was released...

OHOHOHO...another uproar from the Christian community.

I cant blame them either...cos there are some people who just believe everything they read and see from the book and from the movie.

I mean how could you let a single FICTION book destroy your years of faith in christianity without any further investigation or research???

The worst thing is ... non-christians or those anti-christians people now have something to say against us.

They might laugh at us and point fingers and laugh ...

So...i still think that it is not really such a good idea that a movie was produced based on this book.Cos now....every tom dick and harry who do not (or cannot) appreciate a good novel will be able to watch this movie and all will say HAHAHA JESUS WAS A MORTAL... definitely not a good idea

Why, there were even some weirdos in the cinema with us last night who seemed to have believed every single word they see in the movie. Idiots! 'x'

They were talking and shining their obscenely-BRIGHT handphone screen rite in the cinema ...and moving around... changing seats...

GRRRR...hellooo??? if you cant watch an english movie, pls go out and have some kolo mee or drink cola ok??? Cos everyone else who CAN understand the movie, would want to enjoy the movie...so there 'x'

So anyway, i was soooo happy with Star Cineplex last nite....why???

Cos its soo empty! so glad~~ ^_^

Look ...




We could even sit and have a nice quiet chat on the chairs provided there...

And the best thing is...we managed to get a nice seat for the movie even tho we arrived only 35 minutes before the movie started.....OH JOY~ :P



See???

I am so gonna watch movies on NON-movie days from now on. The few extra Ringgit i paid for my tickets on a non movie day is so much worth the shoving and pushing on movite nite....

OK..so the movie...

It was so so ... i would give it an 8.5 if i had not read the book...but because i've read the book before i would give it an 8.0

hahahah...

I just absolutely love Tom Hank's acting...so nice!! and its a plus point for him being err..quite good looking la ^_^

But then, just because i've read the book i have noticed that they have left out one or two details which i think would be important in order to make the audience fully understand the movie. But i cant blame them, cos the movie is already a 2 and a half hour long...add in more details, and we would have to spend the night in the cinema 'x'

However, they really did a good job in illustrating all the historical points being explained by the Robert Langdon and Leigh Teabing. I lurve that...i think this is the first time i saw a movie doing such a good job in illustrating all those factual points.



But one thing which rather disturbed me is that.........they have modified certain parts of the book :( booooooooooo

definitely a minus point for that!

In the book, Jacques Sauniere is really the grandpapa of Sophie Neveu.But the movie said she is not!

And then i don really like it when suddenly a whole lot of people turned up to meet Sophie at the Rosslyn Chapel when Sophie and Robert visited the chapel..that is just so corny~~

These and others...these were not in the book...

Overall, i would still say the movie is a good one and the book is a good read. And for those out there who really believed that Jesus is a mortal after watching the movie....i tell you, the truth is out there~~ :P
