Da Vinci Code...
Man, what was all the fuss all about?Ok, fine accepted, they talked about Jesus Christ was married and had children..where does in Christianity say that getting married is a sin or have children was a sin. Christ was born to two human beings and in my opinion he getting married is perfectly a normal thing.
what was So insulting about it?
Well coming to the movie, Good narration, good pace, pleasant graphics and above all very good performances. Tom Hanks (for whom I went to watch the movie) did not disappoint. Over all a good made movie and a quality peace of work. The famous articrafts was very well used in the movie, specially the explanation seemed flawless.
There are too many loop holes though. The justification given to killing all the decedents of Jesus was that the DNA of the living could be tested and proved. Okie..but where on earth will you get the DNA of Jesus...(hey how about someone finding the DNA of Jesus and then trying to clone him...another controversial movie, anyone listening??)
They show that family tree of Jesus, 2000 years, more than 20 generations on an average fits on a 5 ft book shelf?
Why do the family just come into the media and claim they are decedents and claim security?
Towards the climax, the movie was a bit unrealistic. Sir Isaac Newton was needlessly dragged in the story. Better still they did not involve Jorge W bush's name, saying he was a decedent of Jesus christ lineage :))

They have said some things about Jesus which is not true; it is a fiction after all;
so if such things are said about God himself it may hurt the feelings of a particular
religion; why do that, it is like saying Lord Ram was not married at all; or changing
our mythology; I'm sure you wouldn't like that; rite?
just a thought.
