Not easily. I want to pick her up, put her in my pocket, and feed her pretzels.

I want to buy her an ice cream cone in the afternoon, and an aperitif in the evening.

Well, you see her a lot in this movie, so I'd say yes. And I like her too, by the way. Plus her english is cute...

I think it was developed from beginning to end in the book. The movie is a different matter in that regard.

Much of it were things that Langdon thought and those things were totally left out of the movie which I think is a little dumb since some of it were also really funny.

I'm going to see it very soon. There's a cinema I can walk to from here, there's a 4.45pm showing.

this film is quite good, but it doesn't feel like it has a real message, possibly a bit nihilistic.

A nihilistic message. But I still love Audrey Tautou's "I'm-so-****ing-worried" look.

i prefer the 'i'm so ****ing French and sexy' look myself, it practically held itself throughout the film.

Well yeah, but that's her by default: "I'm-soooo-a-****ing-sexy-arse-French-gamine-babe-thingie-you-have-no-idea".

She can't be any other way. You can stick her in a potato sack and then she'll be, like, "I'm-soooo-a-****ing-sexy-arse-French-gamine-babe-thingie-you-have-no-idea-in-a-potato-sack".

It was tagged out throughout the book. There were various scenes in the book when they look at each other and smile, like when they were in the taxi or when they are close to each other. The guy made his move though at the end of the book, because let's be honest here, if there was the whole judicial police and a crazy monk on your back, and a huge secret to solve in less than 24 hours, the last thing that comes to your mind is making out. Once they found peace though, the love interest did come out.

By the way I found the movie to be a piece of turd. They took out what was an awesome book, and sucked the life out of its characters, glossed over some details that made the movie illogical a little, and made Tom Hanks an einstein symbologist who can solve a riddle just by looking at it.

We had the chance to see Da Vinci Code on it's premiere day back on 25th of May in Basingstoke, UK.

I must say that I haven't read the book, and I never will because I'm not interested in it. I wanted to see this movie because of the actors, Audrey Tautou, Ian McKellen and Jean Reno.

I liked the movie, it was a good and exciting adventure. I think during the end scenes it went a little overboard, but it was still a very solid movie.
