Tom Hanks takes on Da Vinci Code

Tom Hanks Deciphers The Da Vinci Code

Oscar winner Tom Hanks will star as symbologist Robert Langdon in the move adaptation of Dan Brown's bestseller The Da Vinci Code.

If you're among the one or two people left who haven't read this book yet, you should check it out. It's a fast-paced adventure and its fun to unravel all of the clues as you go along.

I'm very anxious to see how it translates to the screen. I admit, Tom Hanks is not at all what I imagined when I was reading it, but I think he will do very well in the role anyway.

Meanwhile, I continue to groan every time I see an ad for Nicholas Cage's "National Treasure," which looks like a blatant Da Vinci ripoff.
