Short Review of a Long Movie

Went to see The Da Vinci Code this evening and I liked it, though I understand perfectly those that say it drags. I did not mind, for, instance, the long expository dialogues about the codes and secret sects. I did mind that what should have been really important dramatic moments (how many have been told they were direct descendents of Christ?) were considerably less exciting than the violent, gory crimes committed by a zealot albino. On a scale of 5 stars? ***for trying **** at least, for the music. Dan Brown actually played and performed something. Renaissance Man.
