Critics shoot The Da Vinci Code down

[Maggie_T]

Awwww. In Cannes, critics laughed at the film, called it silly, endless, tedious. They even panned the sound track. Some viewers left before the film ended.

Ok. Being laughed at by lefty, effete French critics is really bad. I mean, REALLY bad. :grin:

Poor St. Thomas of Hollywood. He must be crushed.

BTW, that's what I call Tom Hanks. I can't stand him. Yes, I know. He's a good actor. :rolleyes: As my father would say "Oh, good. Glad to know he doesn't bite."

It couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of people. :devil:

It's not just those stodgy Frenchmen in Cannes. DVC is hitting with domestic movie critics as well and not fairing well here either.

For the curious, here's the Box Office Mojo page that will be tracking the film's performance.

I will never watch it.

Too bad Ron Howard waste his time with this crap.

He has made good movies in the past untill this one came along and ruin his streak.

Yes, "A Beautiful Mind" and "Cinderella Man" are both four star films in my opinion.

The bigger streak at stake is that of Tom Hanks... everything this guy has been in since Joe vs the Volcano has been golden - until DVC.

He did well with Apollo 13 too.
