The movie was what it was supposed to be, a very great sequel to the first movie based on a novel by Dan Brown. Tom Hanks did an excellent job in this movie convincing me to stay glued to the movie screen even if it was already 12AM when we watched it. The theater was jam packed considering it was small and not that much frequented by the masses, and I was in for a treat. This was a movie date with my Mom, Dad and Sister who were fans of the first one. I admit I did not see that in a theater but that is nothing that Star Movies could not show me at home. I also read the two books and I think that even if these are fiction, and raised eyebrows of many Catholics around the world... it is a must to watch.

As cold as it was in that tiny corner of the movie house I sat in, I never really got sleepy. The professor from Harvard was visited by a man who carried a suitcase. Judging from the crest that had 2 keys on it, he was evidently sent by the Vatican. Tom Hanks who played Professor Langdon was needed at the time where the Pope just recently died, and a case where his expertise was needed just popped up. He was given access to the archives to resolve an anti matter explosion that could wipe out the whole city while the entire world waits for an election of a new Pope. This was rumored to be done by the ILLUMINATI. The anti matter fragment was a new discovery, and it came from that machine which I know was being made in Europe to split an atom. It was being studied for use in Energy production.

The anti matter was a by product of this process but someone took it. It ended up in the Vatican where all clues pointed to the ILLUMINATI being responsible for it. Several threats were sent by the guy that the kidnapped cardinals (who were called
preferrati I think) told them this explosion were to happen at midnight and they were also going to be killed one by one in public every 2 hours. Now that Langdon arrived, he needs to find a path that would lead to the secret meeting place of the ILLUMINATI where the anti matter particle was hidden. Various artworks and churches lead the way representing Earth, Air, Fire and Water. The first three cardinals were killed one by one in churches outside the Vatican, the angel sculptures point to the exact location of each. They however failed to kill the last one who was saved by Langdon and he told them of its location. The whole thing was a huge conspiracy made by Ewan McGregor who was excellent in this movie, he was later found to have orchestrated the whole thing because of a recorded video inside the Pope's quarters. The Pope was also poisoned in the movie. It ended with Ewan McGregor being found out by the Cardinals, and the new Pope (the last one among the 4 preferratis) was elected.
I really liked the movie and I'm giving it 4 KUMAGS. The Cons? Maybe some people may wish to have more action and fast sequences but all in all everything was fine for me. So if you have not watched it yet, go to the nearest movie house now and buy a ticket. It's worth watching!

i saw the movie yesterday. galing ni ewan mcgregor! nakakatuwa yung story. although a little different from the book, i think the movie gives justice that the Da Vince Code.
Since Da Vinci Code flopped and rated so poorly , I would not want to watch this movie. And even if it's good, I don't want to watch a movie written by someone who profits by blaspheming Jesus.
