Angels & Demons 2009

    Production continues the success titled “ The Da Vinci Code ” and is based, like the predecessor,on a novel written by Dan Brown. Although the action of the novel Angels & demons takes place before of the action from “ The Da Vinci Code ”, the movie begins exactly at the point where first part ended. Professor Robert Langdon ( Tom Hanks ), the most respected expert in ancient symbols of the U.S., is called in a Swiss research facility  to decode a sign from the chest of a murdered physicist. Here he discovers clues that frightens him. Those clues consists in the fact that an old secret organization known as Illuminati is very likely to reborn. This Organization was considered  by all the knowers the most terrific group that has ever existed on Earth. 
     

      He conducts a survey which brings him around the Vatican and the 4 altars of science: Earth, Air, Fire and Water. All this unfolds in the moment in which the Vatican is meeting to elect a new pope. An assassin working for Illuminati catches four Cardinals whose fate will be decided during the film.It is later revealed that the Illuminati has also stolen a canister containing a quarter of a gram of antimatter (an extremely dangerous substance with destructive potential comparable to a small nuclear weapon, a potential unleashed upon contact with any form of normal matter). The clues he will find will put him in the follow of an international conspiracy in which is deeply involved the Catholic Church.

      Almost nothing new for those who have read the book other than to see it come alive ( maybe they just might feel differently towards the movies drastic changes, but considering the amount of blasphemy and inaccuracy it generates, Angels & Demons does exceedingly well at keeping the viewer locked on to the screen this time rather than on their sleepy shoulder ), but for those who haven't, this film may just compel you to pick up Dan Brown's novel just to read a bit more about the significance about the landmarks, and characters such as Galileo, Michelangelo and Bernini who are intricately linked to the plot, but much left unsaid.I will not tell you more and i will let you see with your own eyes the movie and why not read the novel.
