This was before the sound track had been edited in.

What could a mere soundtrack contribute to this hysteria? Apparently when the film went before the censorship board to get its initial rating for the cinema it received the 13 rating that the producers were looking for. So with Dan Brown standing at two for two, as they say across the water, its time to move on to the sound track of the film. To be fair the craze over the book and film was so immense polarised and completely irrational and out of control that no film ever could have met the demands put upon it. Although fairly true to Browns book and therefore capable of continuing the furore over its core ideas, the backlash this time was more to do with the fact that many people believed that Ron Howard's film didn't live up to the hype generated by the Frankenstein's Monster that was now at large. The film that followed also caused much of a stir for pretty much a different reason. But such is the power of taking long lost academic arguments and presenting them as the 'fat free, diet light' version for the new age. The bulk of these ideas had been re-packaged for the modern eye only a decade or so earlier in the best seller 'Holy Blood and the Holy Grail' a work that the authors themselves are happy to admit are just subjective theory.

The reality was that the story itself was pure fiction but was entwined with older and well-documented ideas that, like most theories, were neither new nor proven. The starting point was the book itself, which opened up a Pandora's box of ideas that many found interesting, outrageous, fake, conspiratorial or even downright blasphemous, depending on their own worldview. Review Summary: Even if you are not a fan of the book or the film, this is one part of the ongoing saga that can be enjoyed by everyone.Įvery aspect of The Da Vinci Codes seems to have attained some aspect of notoriety.
