I have to disagree with Don Feder this time. This is fiction and based on a novel. It does NOT claim to be historical fact. If it was, Christians would have the right to properly take offense. Here we have speculation about Jesus and his supposed French descendents. One can understand that Dan Brown's thriller makes for exciting escapist summer reading. And reviews have said the movie isn't as good as the book. Yeah, Hollywood presents a lot of liberal drivel. But no one buys a ticket to see a movie to hear a message but to be entertained.

"But no one buys a ticket to see a movie to hear a message but to be entertained."I bought a ticket to The Passion of the Christ to hear a message.
On the other hand, I bought a ticket to Million Dollar Baby to be entertained and instead got a message. Rumor has it that Brokeback Mountain has a message.
Quite a few movies out there with a message.
