Angels & Demons

This movie is good. So good that I will want to watch it again. It's insightful. Even though, I'm nt a christian nor catholic etc. But after watching this movie, I'm interested to know more about the bible.

It's an intelligently organized movie from the plots to the graphic. It also showed me the places that is within Vatican City which makes me wants to go there for a holiday and visit all the churches that I could find there. The statues are magnificent and it makes people wonder, juz hw man have the capabilities to curve out such a structure with only hammers and bricks.

It's really a man made marvel. And I really love the scripts given by the Pope's assistant. The story actually revolves around the war with Science against the Almighty. This ancient group called the "ILLUMINATI" was taking revenge against the St Peter's Church for crucifying its 4 scientist at year 1668.

After the pope's death in the movie, 4 cardinals were kidnapped by the group and a thing call the "Anti-matter" which believes to be the origin of the universe was stolen from a lab that had juz finished developing this thing.

With its battery that kept the "Anti-Matter" in the tube running out, Tom Hank and gang had only till midnight to save the 4 cardinals and prevent the explosion of the anti-matter which could consume the whole of Vatican city and even part of Europe.

The script of the late Pope's assistant was saying that this scientist are too ignorant. My favorite
phrase of his is "Science is too young for this scientist to understand. You may be able to explain how lightning works. But can you explain where do lightning come from."

The phrase really amazed me on how I look at science. It gives me another perspective. It's so true that we do not know science really well. Yet we want to exploit it and this in turn will have consequences. great movie for me at least.
