I give the movie credit for being closer to the book than had been the "Da Vinci Code" movie, but I feel that the movie itself fell flat. The book did a much better job of building the suspense and the frantic desperation of the plot. I found myself becoming bored and impatient with the movie. There was no deliberation about the clues. Langdon just seemed to figure everything out like clockwork. The movie also lacked all the romantic tension between Langdon and Vittoria. It was like getting a cliffs notes synopsis of the book while leaving out all of the interesting details. However, I can't say it was badly done since it accomplished the task of telling the story in the book.
