Angels and Demons


I liked the story of this one so much better than The DaVinci Code, but this one just didn't do nearly or even close to as well as the first. The thing about Brown, is he plays great attention to detail, so his story's are believable. As ridiculous as the plot was, it was believable. I'm not sure I liked the supporting actress in this. I don't think she was right. There was no chemistry between Langdon and her. I liked that the story took place in one city and not all over the place. When there is too much travelling, the story gets restless, so it starts having to lean on the hard to believe to propel the story further. I think the capturing of anti-matter theatrically worked better than the "holy grail" being the blood line of Jesus. Some stories are just meant to stay in books and some can be easily adapted to the screen. I'm not going to recommend this one, but I thought it was better than the first and I wonder if Brown's third book will become a movie too.
