I don't have problem with his race, only his accent, seems very out of place. At least throw away the accent, the Carmelengo suppose to be adopted as a child by the Pope (in the book he is really the child of the Pope through artificial dissemination) since young. Living there since young, the accent should not be there. It should be interesting watching Obi wan with an Italian accent.
I guess that will be an impossible things to do, most Scottish got a very thick accent. Check out Shirley Manson in Sarah Connor Chronicle.

Yeah apart from the ending they changed the beginning too, cas Langdon is supposed to go to that science place (?) where the antimatter was stolen from, which is where he got that idea for the aerial drop, so I supposed they just removed that altogether. Though not including the whole science trip outing was probably a good thing cas it would make the beginning too slow.
Also a warning to those that are planning to watch the movie, make sure you sit where you can see and read the subititles at the bottom of the screen, and hope that no one tall sits in front of you, like what happened to my friend, everytime there was subtitles, she had to sway from side to side cas she couldn't see the whole line! Which made me have the giggles, and the more I tried to stop, the more I laughed, I was even tearing up and this movie (par a few little scenes) is hardly a comedy or sad movie, so I got a few stares.

Since they had changed the plot, from biological child to adopted, I didn't think the Italian accent would be much of problem anymore. There's more to focus on, than the stupid accent, obviously.
And now, you came running back, saying the "obvious".I guess that will be an impossible things to do, most Scottish got a very thick accent. Check out Shirley Manson in Sarah Connor Chronicle.

Oh its was only a problem because the cinema my friends decided to go to is considered more of an Arty Cinema (I was actually quite surprised they were even screening Angels and Demons there), so it was pretty small and very old (complete with that old theatre style interior and feel) it probably fitted 50 people max. The slant isn't that great and being in such a small cinema, the seats were situated a lot closer then in the big cinemas. If the movie didn't have subtitles it wouldn't have been a problem, but cas there were, and the fact that my friend is a short asian didn't help either. I was lucky he didn't sit in front of me, cas I'm even shorter then my friend!
So if you are planning to watch this movie, go watch it at a big cinema. I actually want to go re-watch it again, not because I was absolutely blown away from it but cas I missed a few parts when I started giggling, and when you try to suppress your laughter, you tend to laugh even more and if your anything like me you start tearing up.

Just watched the movie, enjoyed it. It might have helped that I didn't read the book, or rather, I tried reading it but couldn't go past the first half (and I did try pretty hard).
I like the movie Da Vinci Code and now this but I still don't think I'll pick up another of his book to read
Back then, I thought perhaps I picked the wrong book, should have read Da Vinci Code instead of Angels & Demons. Don't think it make a diff, huh?
But I'm happy that Dan Brown is releasing another book with Robert Langdon as the protagonist again this year (no, I am not reading) since it may lead to another movie
Oh, I love the soundtrack - "Chevaliers De Sangreal"
