Where to begin with this one. First, if you find that you have an extra hour and a half, it’s highly recommended you do something that you have been putting off. This movie has a terrible plot, pretty much pointless, and holes the size of the grand canyon. So much so, IMDB has a running ‘1000 thousand things I learned from Legion‘ contest going on. In the negative sense.

Honestly, I didn’t finish watching it. There was no point in doing so and it didn’t entertain. The actors themselves did a good job. The film has plenty of recognizable faces, which kinda made me wonder how they read the script and then agreed to do the film. Strange.

The movie has already made it’s production money back, so I guess if I was the filmmaker, I’d be happy about that, but as for the film itself. To each its own, but I know my opinion is in the majority.

From the book written by Dan Brown, Ron Howard brings you Angels & Demons the movie.

The hard part about films like this is, once you’ve read the book, nothing you put on film will be better than the imagination. While we liked the movie and for the most part it stayed true to the book, the climactic ending, or lack there of didn’t compare with what I remember reading.

Don’t get me wrong, with a $150 million dollar price tag, it has all the stars, action, and suspense you’d want, but it also had an audience that already knew what was going to happen.

Either way, it’s a great film.
