Thehibikiew Not even bad in a good way
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
storeliviu I loved the subject and the way it makes you wonder about many things. It becomes really thrilling if you already know more about the Christian catholic religion. It doesn't go too too far in any of the discussed subjects, leaving some for you to figure out. If you are a strong believer, you will hate it. If you are in search of the truth and you're open minded, you will love it. Anyway, it sure made me wonder about many things. Sometimes history can be stranger than fiction. In the end, I must say that the artistic work should be left aside when talking about a documentary. If you want special effects, watch SF movies !!!
stuffy-nose This was very painful and confusing to watch. It seemed to bounce all over the place, lacking the ability to make a strong point anywhere. The pacing is horrible. It's still on at this moment but I'm so bored, I thought that I'd rant. This piece of work looks like is was made for under $1000. (I'd bet most of that was taken up by the $700 camera and construction lights they used to light the interviews, God knows they saved nothing for post.) Whoever mad this...please choose another career. I'm not being sarcastic...I'm serious. I'm falling asleep trying to stay interested in what I thought was a fascinating subject. -bleh!
Richard Saad I can conclude that this is must-see viewing for anyone interested in how NOT to make a documentary. Although the subject matter is extremely interesting at times, the shoddy camera work, interview subjects and especially the editing make watching this a real ordeal. Authors and so-called scholars go on way too long on a topic without the director cutting to something interesting to look at. There's only so much I can stand staring at a close up of a 50 year old woman, no matter what she's talking about. And that's the frustrating thing, it could have been a really interesting documentary that would have put The Da Vinci Code in some kind of historical context. Instead it's every history buff's worst nightmare, a lecture made by a teacher with a dry and boring delivery. After seeing this documentary, I long for the pacing and excitement of Dan Brown's novel.
