It got the worst reviews imaginable which ended up doing Ron Howard
and his movie a favor because from then on, it was a case of "well, it
wasn't quite *that* bad".
Has anyone been able to sit through The Da Vinci Code twice? I didn't
mind seeing it in a theater but attempts to watch even a minute of it
since then, it's like hitting a brick wall of boredom.
