I'm an agnostic and I found the completely blatant Catholic bashing really tiring. Twenty years ago I heard all these ideas in Holy Blood, Holy Grail or whatever that stupid book was called, and apparently the authors of that book sued Brown.

I have to admit, unfairly or not, when I see people reading that book on the train I think about the anti-Christian streak in many people.

Doc, I've never read the book but when I heard the premise I recalled all the shows Art Bell did with the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail. It always sounded like a straight rip-off of the basic premise.

And I've heard opinions that it is not very well written and boring to some readers.

Of course, other people find it a good read.

My opinion: the movie could be a real dog if they start to water it down too much. One of the big stinkers. They've got to have a plausible villain or the conflict won't be believable.
