I am watching it now but cannot really describe it because I do not completely understand it. Tom Hanks is in. I started to watch it yesterday but was so tired and fell asleep so missed a lot. I like it but do not completely understand it. Is there someone out there that saw it and can explain it to me? Thank you.

@marlina It was a good movie Marlina, interesting plot. I read the book before watching the movie, it's not new, the book was published in 2003 the movie followed soon after.

@Hannihar okay. I don't know about that either. It's the similarities in the name "Davinci" that made me wonder

Before, I enjoyed watching it. I even bought the novel book but had no chance of reading it.

@Shavkat I see you changed something here. Was the book close to the movie or was it more detailed and helped you understand the movie better?

@LadyDuck ok. Was the book more detailed than the movie or why did you like the book better? You are right it is an old movie but I did not get to it again till yesterday. I forgot I did not finish it so decided to finally watch the rest and glad I did.

@sharonelton I don't fall asleep a lot and if really tired then turn off the program I am watching and go to bed so I can watch it the next day with fresh eyes.

@sharonelton I saw Lord of the Rings twice. The first time I did not understand it and the 2nd I did. That can happen that we are watching something and fall asleep.

@Hannihar Yes, I know what you mean. I don't think I've ever seen any of them all the way through because of falling asleep!

@bunnybon7 I also love Tom Hanks. That is why I wanted to watch it to begin with but really enjoyed it even though did not understand it. I know when I fell asleep I missed stuff but did not go back to watching again so watched from there. Joy, from here helped me understand it. If you want you should read what she wrote.

I haven't seen it or read the book so I can't really help. Perhaps you should watch it again if you missed lots of bits.

@JudyEv Thanks Judy for the suggestion but someone here gave me the information I needed and now I do not have to watch it again because she helped me understand what I did not understand.

It is a well made movie but perhaps better to watch once one has read the novel. To summarize, the novel and the movie explores linkages between unearthing of certain historical secrets which lead to some bizarre events and a symbologist played by Tom Hanks has to step in. It has a mix of Historical societies, sects and things that can shake up the current day societies. The problem is that Dan Brown novels are long (The Lost symbol was even longer than Da Vinci Code and hence a bit boring at times), so one can lose interest in between. May be someone can give an even better explanation, but perhaps I shed some good light!
