Reviews like this help the movie. They also miss the point.

The book (I have not seen the movie) suggests that the Catholic church is secretive and capable of covering up something that would hurt the church. The book suggests that Opus Dei is wealthy, powerful and backwards wishing to push women back into involuntary subservience.

It is not blasphemous to criticize those two organizations.

The actual story is fiction and quite a good, well written story. I look forward to the DVD release since I only rarely pay $30 to go out to a movie.
