The angel is plump and the devil is skinny

Although not full of righteous indignation, it is indeed worthy of thumping—"Angels and Demons" is the best work of Dan Brown in my opinion. It has no too deep history, no too complicated love and hatred, but it has a unique sense of picture— —The large religious scene, the geographical background of the Vatican and Rome, the excellent plot can even serve as a benchmark for commercial films. In my opinion, the adaptation of the previous "The Da Vinci Code" is still reliable, I think This Ron Howard would definitely learn to be well-behaved, and interpret this fatness into a good version. As a result... it became what it is now.

The difficulty of adapting the script, the hardship of the diehard fans, Ron Howard should be the most clear, the audience who has read the novel must be picky, let's see how much the director has the ability to challenge the wisdom of everyone. He didn't modify it or edited it and deleted it, turning the hidden ethics movie into a fun-free action movie. A lot of rhythm and time have been contributed to the drag racing, overturning the wall, and killing in the heart of God. I am curious if the audience who has never read the original book, except for seeing a middle-aged western DR. Altman jumping up and down bravely in one day. From south to north to east-west, there is no use for semiotics at all, just a few mysterious stories hesitating about, renewing Tom Hanks's survival record under aerobic + anaerobic conditions. If you put away your mean thoughts, everyone should treat it as a scenic film of the Vatican and Rome.

I think that angels and demons have different meanings. Religion and science, Catholicism and Illuminati, papal servants and illegitimate children are all portrayals of each other. It is a pity that at the beginning, Ron Howard made the second monk puzzled and watched the science fiction scene for a few minutes. He hadn't figured out what those people were in, so he caught the eye with one eyeball. In the novel, Victoria and her adoptive father's discussion of science's contribution to religion and antimatter is all overwhelmed. I am afraid that the audience with not sharp eyes can't even see her adoptive father's clergy status. The female protagonist is even more unremarkable, she is completely black, and even the Italians' unpopular true colors have no room for display. She said a few dispensable lines and participated in several effortless rescues. Minimize the function of threading and threading. For the Vatican, anti-matter is the source of the destruction of faith, not just being used to end the threat of violence.

For Catholicism and Illuminati, going back to history (in the novel) is not only the concealed resistance of the old and the new, the key is the crux of the scientists who have sought identification in the duny for thousands of years. In the present world, scientists’ sense of identity has surpassed and ascended to heaven. Why these old things have been brought up again is puzzled and fascinating. It was then that entering the Pope’s servant was the initiator of all this. He vainly tried to rely on new power to make the old religion stronger. He was eager to change the dynasty to speed up the change, but his method was too radical. And these are all hidden under the bricks and tiles of the ancient city. Robert Langdon's reasoning is not as well-known as Kogoro Moori. The reasoning process in the film is repeatedly compressed, and the rhythm runs along with the action scenes, except for looking for fat angels. , Did not see any intellectual superiority of Professor Langdon. This is the second part of shaking his head and sighing.

The cast of the film is strong, and I believed that Ewan McGregor's deep eye sockets brought in the corner of the housekeeper absolutely convincing. However, such a matching cast will also be disturbed by the script-the most important relationship between the Pope and him is hidden. He has a kind and evil ambivalence and finally finds out that his life experience cannot bear the collapse, but it is adapted. Make viewers think that his tearful self-immolation was because of conscience? OMG! A painful person with a distorted personality just turned his face into a despicable villain who lusted for power. This is the third of the most distressed.

I remember very clearly that after reading the novel, I had a discussion with EX BF. I felt that the most terrifying power was not from your enemy camp, but from the radical conservatives around me. Carlo is so radical because of his God's love, based on his choice and favor of the religion he identifies with. This may have generated his original motivation to plot this big conspiracy. He has to do something for this kind of love and choice-let religion always surpass science, let science become the devil that stings the world, and let religion return to make up for the scars. Angel. Anyone who is strong and paranoid, his life experience and experience make him think that he is enough to be loved and admired, but when he finds that all this is just the shelter of his biological father, it is the pillar of the Holy See in his heart that collapses. Strictly speaking, he is the only villain, but he has not been portrayed at all. He has no blood, no flesh and no strength, but all righteous people have a good portrayal. They most despise this behavior of selling flesh and blood to the Holy See.

Wu Zhenyu said that he never refuses bad movies, because maybe he can save it. When you see Hanks running upstairs with a shy belly, Ivan disappears in front of everyone in a black robe with a vile and nasty name, and Zuriel disappears from time to time in the black. , You know what a vulgar thing Mr. Howard has done, badly shooting a good novel and a group of good actors! None of the characters are deeply rooted, except for pushing that Thure Lindhardt towards fame. In view of Dan Brown's adaptation of the script every time, I thought very little that he basically didn't want the audience to understand, and then everyone returned to buy his books. However, please change the name to "The Plump Angel and the Skinny Devil".

    It's a pity that I read the original 3 times, and the stars can only be dropped again and again. .

Angels & Demons quotes

  • Richter: He said they'd be killed publicly.

    Robert Langdon: Yes. Revenge... for La Purga.

    Richter: La Purga?

    Robert Langdon: Oh, geez, you guys don't even read your own history, do you? 1668, the Church kidnapped four Illuminati scientists and branded each one of them on the chest with the symbol of the cross... to purge them of their sins, and they executed them. Threw their bodies out into the street as a warning to others to stop questioning Church ruling on scientific matters. They radicalized them. The Purga created a darker, more violent Illuminati, one bent on... on retribution.

  • Robert Langdon: I need access to the Vatican Archives.

    Inspector Olivetti: Professor, I don't think this is the appropriate moment.

    Richter: Your petition has been denied seven times.

    Robert Langdon: No, no. This has nothing to do with my work. The Path of Illumination is a hidden trail through Rome itself that leads to the Church of the Illumination, the place where the Illuminati would meet in secret. If I can find the Segno, the sign, that marks the beginning of that path, the four churches along it may be where he intends to murder your Cardinals. One every hour at 8:00, 9:00, 10:00 and 11:00. Then the device explodes... at midnight. If we can figure out the first church and get there before he does, may be we can stop it. But I can't find the start of the path until I get into the Archives.

    Richter: Even if I wanted to help you, access to the Archives is only by written decree by the curator and the Board of Vatican Librarians.

    Robert Langdon: Or by papal mandate.

    Richter: Yes, but as you no doubt have heard, the Holy Father is dead.

    Robert Langdon: What about Il Carmerlengo?

    Richter: The Carmerlengo is just a priest here, the former Pope's chamberlain.

    Robert Langdon: Doesn't the power of the Holy See rest in him during Tempo Sede Vacante?

    [all the Vatican police men look at each other, with various degrees of doubt and uncertainty]

    Robert Langdon: Fellas... you called me.
