it's 12.20 a.m. i just got back from the cinema, n is still stunned. OMG~ IT WAS SO GREAT!!! O_O!!
many ppl had told me tat the movie is bad or boring, n sed tat the book is better. but i dont think so. i'd read the book, n now i'd watched the movie, i think tat the movie director had done a great job in editing the storyline n the script. they had shown the important part of the story n had explained everything that we viewers r needed to know. they had grabbed hold of the main thing that Dan Brown is trying to say in the book. ( but i was a bit sad also coz they didnt show n explain sum of the symbols i like, such as PHI n the meaning bhind the original Madonna of the Rocks, but these are all insignificance to the whole story anyway, just sum extra information :P)
fleur-de-lis, symbol of the Piory of Sion (it resembles a Lily actually :)
my dad had bought the 9.15pm ticket as my stupid boring (now this is REALLY boring) BM tuition PBK ends at 9 pm. unfortunately, today the teacher (or the principal of the tuition centre, Barudin..or sth like tat) failed to finish the planned lesson in time so i had 'wasted' about 5 minutes or so. it was already 9.20 when we reached the Star Cineplex, bought sum drinks n a big pack of popcorn ( my daddy neeeeds them *wink*), went into the hall at 9.25pm n phew~~ the movie hvn even started yet! bah~ wad 9.15~ they were showing endless of advertisement
= . = n the show finally started at about 9.30pm. yay :)
well..i've to admit tat the beginning of the movie is kinda rush (wad do u expect? turning a 600++ pages book into a movie is not a pretty task ok? same goes to Harry Potter X.X) n i've to agree also that if tat person hvn read the book, thn he/she will be
lost at the beginning of the story. (again~ they had to put the first 200++ pages of the book into just about 30 or 40++ minutes scene. think again) oh well, at least they had explained the main meaning of the pentacle n how Langdon n Neveu broke the code in a kinda fast way ^.^ but the story is starting to pick up when both the main characters arrived at Leigh Teabings's castle, which is also the part i like and enjoy the most.
n thn there's the albino, silas. duno y but i kinda like him :) esp his eyes. they are full of innocence n fear (well..this is wad i think) n oh! O__o i just saw a naked man from his back! not to mention his butt too!! haha! no wonder they showed the 18++ sign b4 they started the movie n i had been thinking y XD. oh yea` n also Gandalf the White in LOTR had become the bad ppl in the movie!!!!! LOL~ well, i pitied Aringarosa too...the wad? president izit? of the Opus Dei. being betrayed n used by 'Ganfalf' n was also drawn towards wealth n power. n poor Silas was mislead too T_T
i really wana fly to Paris n to the Musee du Louvre n gaze in awe, at the place where the blade n the chalice guard the Holy Grail beneath the starry skies :)

the editor of the movie managed to pick out the essential parts from the explanations tat r shown in the book. they had summarised the whole thing n presented them in a short but informative way. they really canceled out the unnecessaries n just told us wad we needed to know on the keystone n the Holy Grail (btw, i love the structure of the box n the crytex is so elegant) . it's the longest scene in the whole movie i think, n i was surprised tat i actually enjoyed it O.o'''

Gandalf was bored to death after the ring had been destroyed so he decided to come into our world to seek for the Holy Grail instead. too bad he found no Hobbits to help him this time
i duno whether i believe the whole story or not, about the Holy Grail. but Dan Brown's work is really convincing. he'd done a lot of research on this i started to believe all those meanings bhind Da Vinci's arts. my dad told me also, tat Da Vinci is a great but mysterious man. n oh ya! hav i told u tat my dad also enjoyed the movie very much?? :D Leornado Da Vinci...i really wana go back into time to know him n understand him. wad the hell was he thinking about during his living years? he is just too 'spooky-ly' mysterious = . =i really wana fly to Paris n to the Musee du Louvre n gaze in awe, at the place where the blade n the chalice guard the Holy Grail beneath the starry skies :)
