this film fail to capture any of the mystery and intrigue that the book offer . the main point of the book and the insight and be hardly even touch upon and leave the viewer wonder exactly why everyone be make such a big deal about them and why they be willing to risk their life . the character development be not good at all . no background or personal development leave the audience not really care at all about what happen to them and and so the action sequence fall flat . the search for the manuscript end abruptly and and with no real explanation and not leave any sense of satisfaction a to what the whole search be for . this be one of the bad adaptation of a book i have ever see . it be horrible and a waste of time . if you have not read the book and skip the movie and read it . if you have read the book and skip the movie and reread it . it be almost a if the point of make the movie be to discredit the book and that be how poorly do and ridiculous this movie be . it be a shame too and because it could have be good have they capitalize on it at the height of it success and they probably would have be able to get a good screenwriter and some good actor . please do not waste your time and read the book .
