Angels and Demons

Last night we went to see the film "Angels and Demons" - having read the book I was prepared for silliness and I wasn't disappointed! It was very watchable though and Rome looks superb - would make me want to go there if I hadn't been. Tom Hanks was his usual "all-round American good guy" self and the special effects were very good. One good thing that struck me was that there were no credits at the beginning of the film (other than the two companies who financed it). I liked this - it went straight into the story and you weren't distracted by the names popping up. The Tivoli is a great old fashioned cinema but ufortunately there couldn't have been more than 25 people in there - a shame.
