Da Vinci Code

Went to watch the Da Vinci Code with Shawn & Phyllis on 1st June. Okay, judgement time. As always, they say the book is better. The story seemed rushed and although I have never read the book, I can say the movie left out the details that the book had. The book seemed richer in content and description.
Cinematically, the shots were varied. But then again, nothing outstandingly impressive. There was a lot of use of virtualness in the movie which was something unique I'd say. Like he parts where they showed what Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) was thinking. The orb that should be on the grave thingy part, and all the diagrams of the solar system and what not done by Isaac Newton. I'm not here to attack the story, I'm here to describe the movie experience.
Some shots like the shots of the well were okay. I wonder how they did that. Heh. Overall, not too bad. Only maybe a little over dramatised.
