Plot:
While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon ('Tom Hanks') receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. Solving the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci - clues visible for all to see, and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu (Audrey Tautou), and learns the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion - an actual secret society. In a breathless race through Paris, London and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker who appears to work for Opus Dei - a clandestine, Vatican-sanctioned Catholic organization believed to have long plotted to seize the Priory's secret. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's secret - and a stunning historical truth - will be lost forever.


Cast:
Tom Hanks (Dr. Robert Langdon), Audrey Tautou (Agent Sophie Neveu), Jean Reno (Captain Bezu Fache), Ian McKellen (Sir Leigh Teabing), Alfred Molina (Bishop Aringarosa); other cast not announced yet.

Based Upon: (2/14/05) This movie is, of course, based upon the popular mystery/suspense novel by Dan Brown. At one point, before the novel became quite that popular, the producer of the TV series "24" sought the rights to the novel to incorporate it into the show as the core of the third season's plot, but author Dan Brown completely rejected the concept, holding out for movie rights. A few months later, Sony paid Brown $6 million for just that.


Production Status: In Production/Awaiting Release


Release Date: May 19th, 2006

Thx alot

thx 4 sharing,Kadum

thanx for sharing
i think that it would be a wounderful movie

i guess you knew that i would thank you for the info Kade ..
this is one amazing movie as the story is as huge as a big blast ..

but i guess the movie will create many problems and arguements if it was played as the original story .. becoz it has many thoughts and concepts that are not accepted by certain ppl .. but i guess it wont be the exact one .

any way thanks for the info bro .

PS. where do u have time to search and write about all these articles and stuff

Yeah I heard it has some points that really challenge the way of thinking regarding many religious facts that have been taken for granted all those years.

But it's fictional after all... so it's ok to check it


You're welcome dear friends, and about time; well it's easy, I just skip studying

hi guys,
I've just finished watching "The Da Vinci Code". It's one outsanding film, it's simply exraordinary.
I think it does contain some theories & ideas that desreve the controversey which has taken place worldwide concerning this movie. The movie supposes a number of ideas that stand against many religious facts which have been beleived by many religions for many years. In other words the movie proposes a new religion or 2 b more accurate a new version of the catholic religion with many new theories concerning the life & history of Jesus (Al Nabi 3eesa -3alayh Al Salam).I won't tell u anymore cuz I don't wanna spoil the movie.
U've got 2 watch this one because Tom Hanks performance was very good & also it was pictured in Paris mostly & a little in UK.
***the most important thing is from where I got the movie (mo balla?) well I bought it from -ASHBILIA-(اشبيلية) which is a DVD-shop besides Alrowwad Ice Cream in AlMansoor.It is subtitled with Arabic & the sound & video quality is good except that it is a little dim.

definitly it is an amazing movie
although it is based on theories ,asumptions and conclusions
give it a try
but what is realy interesting the creative mind who wrote the novel i mean this guy is a genius.if you like to read about him ..his name is dan brown
here is his web site

thanx

its the jewish reply to the PASSION OF CHRIST... I didnt like it at all

thnx alot 4 sharing really the novel achieves the highest prices in outside countries but i wanna say something here ive read THE DA VINCCI story about 8 years ago & theres a real secret in his MONALIZA which is not discovered yet i advice u 2 read it its available in the eddition of dar el3il lilmalayeen.......thnx again

Well guys,
I've watched the movie twice and read the arabic version of the novel and it was nothing but absolute admiration to Dan Brown ( the author) ..
He has such a great style; mentioning every little tiny detail in order to convey the whole situation to the reader and also, to give the story more credibilty....
As much as the ideas introduced in this novel are weird and un-acceptable (suggesting that Jesus Christ was not born by a virgin mother and also suggesting that he had got married and that there are living descendants of him till now)
as much the novel style makes you almost beleive them which is really mysterious itself....
Not only that but also, even if u are not a big fan of religious or historic novels, the adventurous is pretty enough to make you adore this novel...
I would like to recommend this novel for reading and I think it's available in Iraq cuz it's already available in Jordan for 5 J.Ds
