I like the book better than the movie too. And it really paved way to a lot of controversy pertaining to Catholicism and its origin and practices. But yes, I think people who wanted to read it should have an open mind since it is a work of fiction though there are some points in the book that was actually true. There is also a similar book I've read by Steve Berry, it's called The Templar Legacy. It's as thrilling as Da Vinci Code but I actually like the ending of The Templar Legacy better. =)

I've not read the book but I've loved the movie.Just that it's like you said too fictional.And make you ask yourself question about this religion made from 2000 years now.I myself still asking myself those questions???why people are not killed like before in the name of religion (inquisition time) have African choose to become Christians or have they been forced and wash brained??? OMG the we just need to know the truth! as it's the supposed DEMOCRACY's time.

I find the book more thrilling than the movie. Maybe just because the book has more details. Dan Brown was really a genius writer! Have you heard about Angels and Demons? It's the prequel. Very interesting too!

The book was quiet interesting but i dint like the way Dan Brown has ended all the mystery. I mean all thru the book you get a feeling that something very great is going to happen in the end which will end the mystery. But nothing like this happens. I mean all the enthusiasm which was built up al thru the nook is lost somewhere suspesiously in the end. The movie is boring more than the book. He could have made it more interesting. Now whether its fictional or real is out of questions as both sides dont have any justified proof. Let eave that aside because both sides have their points so npbody can win clearly.

the book and movie is fictional all in one. there is no ifs, ands, or buts about this topic. Dan Brown has absolutely nothing else better to do and he's just trying to figure out how to make lots of money and reach fame. He figured writing myths about God will make him rich, but what he actually did was stirring up a big controversy. Dan Brown, the so-called Christian, has his times waiting on him. By the way, Zerzis, nice picture (I like the image).

I haven't read the book but i've watched the film twice. why? because at first, i was intrigued at the reasonings of the priests here in the Philippines that it will changed your beliefs. My second time, I want to hear and see again their explanation of the chalice... its nice, I appreciated the technology they used.Come to think of it, the movie's effect did not even change my belief to God.

No one said it was other hing than a fiction novel, but it was inspired on actual scientific research, mainly the in the archeological discovering of the Nag Hammedi Library in 1945. This doesn't mean the facts that appear in these books are historic, but this books reflect some ideas of the early christian community, so it has a big historical worth.
