• May. 19, 2006 - More "Duh" Vinci Code Quotes

John J. Miller collects 'em at The Corner:

 

For example:

 

Detroit News:  "Here's the gospel on "The Da Vinci Code": It's a total snore. It's so boring it could be called "The Dull Vinci Code." It's so dumb it could be called "The Duh Vinci Code." It's the worst film ultra-reliable director Ron Howard has ever made. It turns the most likeable actor in America, Tom Hanks, into a stodgy cipher. It makes the most charming actress in Europe, Audrey Tautou, about as appealing as gum surgery. Together they have the chemistry of buttermilk.

• May. 20, 2006 - I confess . . .

Posted by shaunms
I am enjoying reading the reviews of DVC, which is probably feeding a cynical, nasty part of myself that I'd be better off starving, but really, when I consider how seriously some have taken this book I can't help but enjoy seeing the movie dismissed. I read it and was entertained by it as a thriller (I don't read much fluff, and this was quite fluffy), but when someone close to me said, "Wow, it really made me think about the church and women . . . " I thought, Holy Cow! We get our understanding of public policy from blogs and talk radio, and our theological reflection from dime-store novels. Scary . . .
