Surprising Differences from the Book

I really really liked this movie. I really LOVED the book. It kicks DaVinci Code off the map....Book and film... What stopped me from loving Angels and Demons are some of the really big changes from the book. The assassin is completely different...(probably to remain PC)...No Max Kohler...no creepy, heartthrobbing interaction between Langdon and assassin (2 huge scenes from the book that would have translated very well on screen were omitted)
You would be better reading the book after the movie to experience some of the omissions in the movie. But having said that, the movie is still worth going to see, if for nothing than trying to distinguish what pieces are real and what is created and weaved into reality by Dan Brown...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

i enjoyed it...lots of action and excitement. A few rather large things were left out that were in the book and i still dont like the choice of Tom Hanks as Robert but it was much better than da vinci code.

I almost missed this picture due to the poor critic reviews and all the fuss over the "truth" of the story. As Ron Howard and Tom Hanks have stated - this is fiction. Just enjoy the story. And we did.
I liked this better than the DaVinci files, and recommend it to anyone who wants to go to a movie and be entertained. No great social issues, no historical insight, just entertainment. And that is what I seek.
The length looked long - but was just right. There were no lulls at midway or in the last 30 minutes. Be sure to see this movie!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

It was finally enjoyable to go see a movie made from a book that held to the book itself. Granted that only 3/4 of was held to true counts but unless you wanted a 3 1/2 hour movie it had to be done in the manner it was.
I think Ron Howard is an excellent viosionary and did a fantastic job in creating this stroy on screen.
In fact he did such a fantastic job, I hope he will also make Deception Point.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I hadn't seen the original movie in some time so I was wondering how much I'd have to dig into my memory in order to understand the first one. Thankfully, not a bit!
I thought this sequel was a great "stand-alone" movie... works all by itself!
The plot was basically a nod to Keiffer Sutherland and "24"... just substitute Tom Hanks and you can follow this movie just fine! Jack....err Tom, has only 4 hours to save the Vatican and the Catholic faithful from a deadly bomb!
Follow the action all over Rome as only Ron Howard can do!
Good paced, easy to follow, nice date movie! The gal was superfluous, I guess a nod to needing the female audience... if only it was "Cloie"! Lol!
Recommended highly.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Loved it! I always worry when I go see a sequel - usually not as good as the first, buy time until the third of the series comes out, but that was NOT THE CASE WITH THIS ONE!!!
Great Momentum! Great plot! And actually, this one could stand on it's own!
Cast, story, action and effects were great!

I lost all sympathy for the victims when they chose to ignore the bomb threat and refused to evacuate the grounds. Even though the story is cleverly written and Tom Hank's performance is strong (as expected) this movie drags. It lacks creativity and seems formulaic. I spent the 2nd half waiting for it to end. Ron Howard should step asside. I'm sick of seeing budget, talent, and good stories squandered by him.

I thought it was a great movie. If someone hasn't read the book they will think it's great. If you HAVE read the book, you'll notice a huge plotline of the book not even mentioned. About 3/4 of the movie is pretty true to the book, the last 1/4...isn't so much.
Very very entertaining and I'd love to see it again!

Hollywood must get a great discount on things that go "boom". Were their leftovers from Apollo 13? Helicopter scene with skylight & the parachute was Hollywood trite.
Shame on Brown for butchering his own great work. Would have been a GREAT movie if you left the riviting character plots & backstories. Guess that proves anyone will sell out their work if the price is right.
Went with someone who did not read the book and told him little, and he was often confused.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I was worried that this movie would not be able to hold up to The Davinci Code. But, it surpassed it in quality and mystery! Just when you think you have the whole conspiracy figured out, the plot makes a dramatic, unexpected twist. Great movie, definitely worth the 2 hrs. to watch it!

Only Hollywoood can take the prequel to a book and make it a sequel to a movie! When the pope dies, the cardinals get together to elect a new pope. Four of the lead contenders are kidnapped and will be killed off one by one. Enter Hanks reprising his Langdon role who just happens to be familiar with the Illuminati, an underground religious sect holding the cardinals captive. He pulls another all-nighter solving the case and it is great. The plot works, makes sense, falls into place like a domino effect. I read the book and the film is just as fascinating, a real nail biter. McGregor is great as the camerlengo, the priest in charge while the cardinals choose the pope. Plot twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The movie was really action packed and kept you on the edge. I would see it again and tell my friends to see it too. I was disappointed that they changed so many facts from the book to the movie certain things should not be changed and they would have worked fine in the movie. If it isn't broke don't fix it!

Sunday school is in session as Ron Howard and Tom Hanks take you on another religious crusade in classic Hollywood style!
And once again author Dan Brown provides a provocative and adventurous tale that questions your faith.
This is a really intelligent film which keeps you glued to the screen all the way through.
The twist at the end seemed a bit contrived, but understood.
If you liked The Davinci Code, you'll like The Davinci Code more than this one. Make sense?

Generally a good movie. Though I thought I knew where the plot was going, I was totally deceived. People who seemed evil were good; people who seemed good were evil. If the real world were like this, we wouldn't be able to evaluate character properly, because nobody is who they seem. It is well that this movie defied common sense, otherwise it wouldn't have much shock value.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Mostly good acting, great cinematography, but the storyline was too frequently trite and predictable. I haven't read the book, maybe it was as well, but it was irritating at points. The Catholic-bashing is a little old as well at this point. Tom Hanks has established himself as the leader of the anti-Catholic movement in Hollywood...fine, its his world, but it does detract from his film making. This movie is worth watching on television if it's a slow night.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I am not reviewing the book, as some mentioned, since books have rarely translated into film as written. That's what imagination is for. As a movie, I would say that this translates very well. The plot was laid out very deliberately so that it could be easily absorbed. There was suspense that kept building and receding so that the climax was as rewarding to myself as it was to the characters. I would call this the thinking man's Indiana Jones, and it does not disappoint, but don't take my word for it. See for yourself. I'm sure you will agree. Definitely ten notches above the first.

But I enjoyed the movie and will see it again!
