Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Entertaining Comment: I particularly welcome the exposure the film gives to the denigration of women by the Catholic Church and the role of Mary Magdalene in church history. While The Da Vinci Code never reaches its full potential as a compelling work of art, it is solid entertainment that creates awareness of the differences within the early church and may spur people to read apocryphal writings such as the Gnostic Gospels and The Gospel of Thomas. Of course, the theory, first expounded in the book Holy Blood, Holy Grail by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh, is out of the mainstream, yet, it is not as preposterous as Roger Ebert has claimed. Given the paucity of historical records referring to a historical Jesus and the passing of two thousand years, it is no more implausible than many other theological notions, widely accepted as the unvarnished truth. Anyway, all questions are answered and you are not left hanging. Whether you agree with the answers is up to you. Remember, it's only a movie, and it's never too late to become a history buff and you can do your own research. Customer Rating: Summary: Utter Blasphemy! Comment: This is extremely blasphemous! Whether or not it is called fiction is irrelevant. To even create something so disrespectful to the Christian faith is not worthy of watching. Customer Rating: Summary: Mission impossible Comment: How could it be possible to issue passable (a movie) with a void (the book)? How could be hold a plausible story with lies and illusions of forger? How could one hold an audience spellbound with pretentious juggling clowneries? How could it be possible to issue rythm with the flatness of the book story? Etc. Impossible? You've said impossible. You're right. The film was "mission impossible". The spectator who paid to see lost something more than his/her money, it is also impossible to repay ... the time he/she wasted. What does Tom Hanks, lost and misplaced in this film, who is so sensitive and true in "Philadelphia", fragile and tenacious in "Cast away", confusing of candour in "Forrest Gump" and so great in "Saving Private Ryan"? Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Film Comment: Commonly, those who criticize this film negatively are those who have biased views and perspectives. I personally loved this film. It was thought provoking. The music was excellent. The historical reanactments were very well protrayed. A movie that I have watched for countless times. Customer Rating: Summary: Better than the critics say. Comment: This movie caused quite the stir and is STILL causing quite the stir amongst Christians. I was raised Catholic and have never quite believed all the things taught by the church or ANY church. The virgin birth is something I've always questioned. Same with the resurrection. Same with all the so called miracles. Were any of us there? A guy once said to me; either you believe it or you don't. Sorry, I don't. The Da Vinci Code didn't really impact what I already believed. I don't understand why people are so upset over this movie. If your faith is so strong, why are you so easily offended? I loved the book and unlike the critics, I loved the movie. I didn't care for Tom Hanks and I hope he's not going to be in Angels & Demons. I can only imagine the uproar when that comes out. LOL I think it's stated quite plainly in the movie. Why couldn't Jesus be married and have kids? Why would that change his divinity? Maybe he was married and still performed all those miracles. Anything is possible. My faith was shaken over the gay issue, this movie didn't change anything for or against. If you haven't seen the movie, I suggest the book because it's the superior of the two. Don't expect to have your faith shaken to the core by either.
