Movie Reviews of Da Vinci Code Decoded
Movie Review: Exploring Further
Summary: 4 Stars
Dan Brown's DA VINCI CODE is pure fiction yet being based upon the latest theories about the Leonard, Da Vinci Jesus's bloodline and Holy Grail studies.
If you want to explore deeper into such studies upon which Dan Brown's bastseller novel based, this DVD is a nice guide.
While this DVD may serve well for Davinci Code enthusiasts, it lacks or ignores the serious criticism cast upon from a number of researchers and theologists. So it is by no way well-balanced and may not fit for the material for serious debate.
Enjoy it as pure entertainment. It gives you more insights than King Solomon's Mines series or Indie Jones series.
Verdict: Typically has the TV documentary flaw...For pro- Da Vinci Code fans.
Rating: 80 out of 100
Recommended for: DA VINCI CODE enthusiasts.

Fans of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code should prepare to have their minds blown all over again watching The Da Vinci Code Decoded, a mesmerizing documentary featuring several authors whose research provided the basis for Brown's bestselling novel. Henry Lincoln (Holy Blood, Holy Grail), Dan Burstein (Secrets of the Code), and Margaret Starbird (The Woman with the Alabaster Jar) are among interviewees who can tease from Da Vinci's few paintings sometimes spooky references (e.g., the disembodied, knife-wielding hand in "The Last Supper") to the artist's heretical convictions about Christ. Much evidence is presented to support the view that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene, and that the latter's flight to France with Christ's child is the real basis of the Holy Grail legend. Exciting, persuasive stuff, shrouded in mystery and possible conspiracies. --Tom Keogh
