On the day after Thanksgiving, instead of waiting in long lines and buying things we didn’t need, we enjoyed watching “The DaVinci Code”!
I was wary of our family watching this “controversial” film that so many have spoken out against, and after seeing it I can understand people’s opinions on the storyline being uncomfortable to handle.
However, when ANY fictional movie portrays our belief-system as “false”, I hope I will always be quick to NOT instantly write it off as unwatchable because of someone else’s opinion.
I believe this movie, while entertaining the brain, DOES provide a great platform for discussing our beliefs and begs ANY Christian to know why they believe what they believe AND to practice Christian Apologetics!
Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou played their parts perfectly, by the way!
I have been soooo anxious to see this movie. Your review is exactly what I have been expecting. I am so anxious to see Happy Feet and Charlotte’s Web. Plan to see all three – the last two with the grandchildren.
Hey Stevan! It’s been a while. Haven’t seen the movie, but the book was definitely a good read. I, honestly, couldn’t put it down. As a Christian and a pastor, I find it to be necessary to become educated on these things, especially since people we minister to are reading and viewing them. If you have time, pick up the book…..but don’t let some of those nosey people see you. I was afraid of being fired for it. LOL.
