I had read the book which was absolutely fantastic,and was keen to watch this DVD to see how it would work on screen. It was better than I thought it would be. The people that watched this with me had Not read the book, and thought it was really good. Obviously a lot of information from the book was missed out as it could not fit into two and a half hours, but I would recommend the book first, then the film. Well worth the time.
A very engaging movie, the story is very well researched and could easily be believed as fact, it makes you think?

i decided to buy the da vinci code after reading the book,which if i may say was excellent, the story is fasinating as it covers real life history. I strongly recommend this dvd to anybody who likes codes and history and suspense....
I'd already seen this film but I didn't fully understand the plot first time around, so I read up on The Knights Templar & Opus Dei & their relevance to The Da Vinci Code & bought this copy, which was excellent, & this time I did understand the plot, it's a very thought provoking film & thoroughly enjoyable.
A couple of years ago, I first read the Dan Brown book the Da Vinci code. I read it before all the hype or in fact actually before the book started becoming massive. Admittedly, I don't read many books as often as I should, however I had a long journey planned and needed something to read, a quick look at some of the new books on display I liked what I read on the back cover. I am also not in the slightest bit religious, however as I read on I found it to be a brilliantly done and a very exciting, if not fictious alternate story concerning historic events. I went to see the film a while after the book had come out and really enjoyed it, it stuck very closely to the book, only a few minor details were changed which involved I believe Sony sponsorship from what I could see! It was such a gripping film it was over before I realized, purely because I was concentrating so hard, the people I were with also enjoyed it. The film was a very fitting replication of the book and I would highly recommend it to anyone who has either read the book but not yet seen the film, or vice versa.Read full review
