Dan Brown s novels are packed with fascinating historical tidbits
which he ingeniously twists into plots that are so intricate and
complex that there is a constant need to inform the reader with
exposition, often leaving little room for character development.
There is a bit of this stilted quality to ANGELS AND DEMONS, the
second of Brown s novels to be brought to the big screen by the
tandem of Ron Howard and Tom Hanks, but more than enough intense
action to keep the eyes of the audience as busy as their minds. The
details of the plot are as diabolical as any in Hollywood history:
after the pope s death, a nefarious organization stashes an
antimatter bomb somewhere in the Vatican, threatening to annihilate
the conclave of cardinals who are meeting to elect the papal
successor. To pass the time until the bomb will detonate, the enemy
begins to torture and kill a few of the individual cardinals, but
there is a pattern to the grotesque executions, involving hidden
sculptural symbols and secret architectural clues. Unfortunately
for the church, the man most capable of deciphering the code is the
American "symbologist" Robert Langdon (Hanks), who happens to be an
affirmed atheist. The script is filled with amazing details about
the centuries-old conflict between the church and the Illuminati
(whose members included Galileo, Michelangelo, and Bernini), which
Hanks uncovers as he breathlessly races between various landmarks
in Rome, always a step behind the sinister assassin. The secondary
cast consists almost entirely of European actors, including Ewan
McGregor, Stellan Skarsgaard, and Armin Mueller-Stahl, who betray
so little emotion that it is impossible to tell who is a part of
the conspiracy until long after the explosive climax.
