Positively final appearance....

This is the positively final appearance of the Da Vinci Cod on this blog. We all know that the book was a stinker in terms of plot, characters, and historical accuracy but it seems that the film is even worse. Not only were the various critics coming out of the premiere in Cannes trying to outdo each other in abusing it, it seems that not even The Irish Times, that venerable organ of anti-Catholic opinion, could be persuaded to say a good word about it. My favourite of the lot however is A N Wilson in the Daily Mail. I'm used to reading his books column in the Daily Torygraph, so I usually expect him to be a slightly jaded voice speaking up once again for civility and humane values. And once again, he doesn't disappoint. Anyway, that's it; as promised above, this is its positively final appearance here. And now for something completely different....
