Movie Review: Angels and Demons

“Angels & Demons” is the second bestselling novel by the critically-acclaimed author Dan Brown to hit the big screen in the last few years. The movie features the return of the great Harvard religious expert, Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks), who has been summoned by The Vatican to help stop a path of destruction being created by a secret society that calls itself The Illuminati. The ancient and deadly brotherhood has captured four cardinals who are in line to be the next Pope and is threatening to kill them and eventually blow up Vatican City. It is up to Langdon and his partner, Italian scientist Vittoria Vetra, to crack a series of ancient symbols and hidden messages so they can save the Cardinals, the future Pope and of course, The Vatican. “Angels & Demons” also stars Ewan McGregor as Camerlengo Patrick McKenna (that’s some sort of priest for those of you who don’t know) and Stellan Skarsgard as Commander Richter, the head of security at The Vatican.
