Read the book last summer and really enjoyed it. Tom Hanks is the main Charactor (Langdon) But I know i won't like the film. Read a few books before the films and it spoiled the movie eg The Shinning, Silence of the Lambs

i have never really enjoyed a film where i'd previously read the book.even classics like one flew over the cuckoos nest.i admire the film but it just cant do justice to the book

Apparently audience reaction to Tom Hanks hair has been very negative (he's gone for the greasy Italian striker look

Thats cheap Winrew, the cinema where i work is £7 a ticket :loon .As for the film,i cant wait,ive read the book twice and think the film could be awesome

Dont really know or care about the religous debates over it ( a mass debate maybe!!

),all i can say is its a belting good read.

Never read the book, cant be arsed. Dont like Tom Hanks really (does he have AIDS or was that fiction) but I think the film will be worth a watch.

I want there to be protests outside so I can chin any Religious nob-heeds that try to boycott the sex, lies and videotape.

Man what a pile of shite

:

Wife dragged me to see this and boy did it suck a big one. So long. So much talking ...so little action. Worst movie of the year

im away to watch the da vinci code. it aint a sequel to something is it?

Nah Komp but its a lot easier to watch if u had read the book first as it looked confusing and it was only for me reading the book first i actually knew what was going on.

Saying that, i was viewing the Korean cam version without subtitles and some cnut continually rustling a crisp packet in the background who had a bad cold.

Book was ok but not as great as what was made out and the film even worse.

Good movies are becoming few and far between for some reason , Remaking a classic like Damien is a prime example of just how desperate the film industry is becoming.

When I first read the Omen, it was one of the best books I'd ever read.

D'Vinci code wasn't.

**kompressaur** · #15 (**permalink**) 02-06-2006, 20:22

i read omen 1-5 and enjoyed them odm.

my da vinci mpeg never worked. i ended up watching a Cracker disk i got with a scottish newspaper. it was the one with robert carlyle as the liverpool fan after hillsborough 'to be somebody' i think it was called. Cut out 20 mins to the end
