Angels and Demons


Cast: Tom Hanks, Ewan McGregor, Ayelet Zurer, Stellan Skarsgaard Director: Ron Howard Studio: Sony Pictures

Usually I am the type of person who reads the book beforehand, like I did with the Davinci Code, but this time I was not able to. The good news is I don’t mind so much.

Like I usually say, when a film is based off of a book, it is hard to criticize the plot and story. So, I will keep it short and mention that I was interested where the story went, even though I could predict a few things like I always do.

The characters in this film were just like those in the Davinci Code, but in all honesty to make them counter to this, would be bad. I was very pleased with Ewan McGreggor’s performance this time around. I forgot not to trust the one in the film who seems saintly. They are usually the culprit, and he fooled me magnificently.

Cinematography, special effects, and everything else were nice and well rounded in this film. I also have to mention, it is not hard to enjoy a film when Ron Howard is the one who directed. I am pleased to review this film in a positive light.
I give this film 4 out of 5.
