I went to see Angels & Demons last night... better than DaVinci Code by basic Hollywood standards (read: more action)... Having read the book a few years ago, I may have been a little fuzzy on some of the details... but not the overall story specifics. I like how the ending was handles within the movie (the book felt like it was too forced/quick, but the movie made the ending a little more natural)... Considering A&D actually came FIRST, they did pretty well playing with the story elements that turned it into a sequel... To say anything more specific would be spoiler-ific, and I'm just not into that right now...
Friday, to complete the title references... we watched A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints. I didn't think it was bad (as a character piece), but having watched it, I am interested in reading the source book... It felt like there was a lot of things were left out of the movie in orderto make some of the connections click... I would recommend it, but be advised - it's not for the faint of ear (it's rated R, fora lot of language)...
