The Onion on "The da Vinci Code"

My thoughts exactly. What a god-awful book.

Quote:

The Da Vinci Code
What it's about: In the film adaptation of Dan Brown's mega-bestselling thriller, Tom Hanks and Audrey Tautou follow a series of cryptic art-world clues to a long-kept religious secret.

Why it's probably a waste of time: Wasn't reading Brown's stilted, tortured prose bad enough, without having to hear Hanks declaim it too?

Why it might be worth seeing anyway: Given the film's massive budget, it's likely to look really, really good onscreen. Also, if everyone in the country goes to see it, maybe they'll finally burn out on Da Vinci Code fever and America can get a new national obsession.

Suggested alternate activity: Reading a good book, wishing someone would make a movie out of that instead.

Then again, the movie does have Audrey Tautou in it. She's fuckin' hot!
