Angels And Demons

Trying to avoid spoilers lol. From the people who've done both, the book and the film, is the book really that good that I should read it rather than seeing the film? Or at least read it before I see the film?

Usually when I've read a book, the movie is never as good for me.

If I were you I'd go and watch the movie first, then read the book.

It's not a sequal, it just has the same character (Robert Langdon), I read the book and went to see the movie, and that is a perfect example of how the book is always better than the movie!!

I'm seeing it on Tuesday (not my choice my friend is desperate to see it!) never read the books and never seen the da vinci code but I'm hoping for it to be good!

The Da Vinci Code was utter garbage. And Tom Hanks himself isn't too high on this new film.

I agree. Imo it was driven by the plot and that stupid relationship between Tom Hanks and that spainish/italian/w/e chick was just crobarred into it.

I went to see it yesterday and I thought it was pretty good.
I havent saw or read The Da Vinci Code (and I haven't read Angels and Demons) but after seeing the film, Im planning on reading the book.

My friend thought it was good too but he felt that quite a lot from the book had been missed out (but somewhat expected that it wouldn't be the exact same)
