the book was a underserved shot at the masonic lodge, some lodge ceremonies as well as induction rituals were taken out of context . for this reason due to the bias could not finish book . it was very very inaccurate ,often centuries inaccurate from hidtorical facts . fell asleep during t. v . telecast , could i have understood it yes . did i want to understand it no. very inaccurate , with religious as well as hisrorical accuracy. due to my age, and beliefs the book was not for me was it a good book , for the vast majority . yes was it understood from a historical viewpoint i hope not . the movie was evwn more inaccurate than the novel , for the majority of watchers great movie . the original context of the novel was not to cause conterversy , just a novel. the outcry was about the church wanting it banned. there was no attack against the church , this contervesy helped the novel as well as the movie . i am in a very very small minority who has knowledge of the story . this alone would cause clouded judgement . both the book, movie made a lot of money , the bottom line, had to be great , but a quiz on the book and movie regarding the facts , would have a different out come thank you so much for posting this question . reson to understand you did not , have a enjoyable time with the book movie . congratulations on your foresight . free speech free thinking well done .take care you will be using your brain for a university scholarship .

I liked the movie, but if you really want to like and understand 'the da vinci code', read the book. The thing about the movie is that it is only 3 hours long. The book takes u pretty much minute by minute over 2 days or so, so of course there is so much more detail and explaination

It's harder to understand because it's based off of the book by Dan Brown. Because the book does not translate well to film, it gets a little confusing from time to time. I highly suggest reading the book and then watching the film, it will make much more sense, and will probably be a lot of fun to see characters acting out a great book =D

I read the book first so I understood the movie much better. I thought both the book and the movie were very good.

Yes, I watched the movie and read the book and enjoyed both. The book is much better than the movie. Try reading the book if you are having difficulty following the movie.

Yes...the book makes the film far more clear. If I hadn't read the book then I probably wouldn't have understood the film really, but I did enjoy and understand it (thought the book is 100,000 x better!)

I understood it only because I had read the book. They leave a few important connecting details out of the movie, so you really should read the book.

I didn't understand it, but then I didn't read the book. My daughter had just finished the book, so I annoyed her with questions about every 2 minutes for the entire movie. Some how, I don't think either one of us enjoyed the movie.

Count me down as one.
I never read the books, but I saw the movie, and it made sense to me. Actually I enjoyed it alot, but I'm into the whole religion conspiracy propaganda thing, and I found it to be very interesting. I guess it would all depend on what kind of entertainment you enjoy.
