Review: The DaVinci Code
After receiving much criticism before its long awaited release, The DaVinci Code has proved a success among Brits, taking �120m in its first weekend at the box office.
Ron Howard's direction of Dan Browns mystery thriller, sees Professor Robert Langdon called to the Louvre in Paris, as the elderly curator has been murdered inside.
Near his body a baffling cipher leads to the paintings of Da Vinci, and Langdon joins forces with French cryptologist Sophie Neveu to try and decipher the puzzle.
Langdon and Neveu learn that the curator was involved with the Priory of Sion, a secret society, and they come up against a catholic organization, Opus Dei, who has long planned to seize the Priory's secret.
If Langdon and Neveu don't manage to decipher this puzzle in time, the priory's secret and an amazing historical truth will be lost forever. This film boasts many big names, with Tom Hanks playing Robert Langdon, Audrey Tautou as Sophie Neveu and Paul Bettany and Ian McKellen also making appearances.
