Any excuse to not see this overblown thing is fine by me. Actually, I'm starting to conpare it to "Birth of a Nation". Should we applaud a film that lets the Ku Klux Klan be the GOOD guys and ride to the rescue of white girls being threatened by roguish blacks? That's the equivalent of the daVinci Code.

Perhaps we can convince Oliver Stone to remake Birth of a Nation and show it next year at Cannes.

Birth of a Nation is a great film though its subject matter is pretty offensive. Davinci Code is pretty offensive but I doubt that it will be a well made film.
