The reviews are bad too. Tom Shales said Hanks acted like a zombie. And I don't remember any zombies in the book. Silas was kind of a zombie, but not really.
I've read three of his books. DaVinci, IMO, is the worst of the lot. The ending was a little soft for me. Angels and Demons was better, but still has that 'everything happens in 24 hours' motif. Deception Point didn't use that motif, or any of the same character, but still had that setup to make you think one person is the villain when it's actually somebody you thought was a good guy, and vice versa.
My wife wants to see the movie, but the reviews are worrying me.
