06.18.05Pay-Per-View I didn't think I'd like this at all but I did. Yes it's a Dan Brown ripoff (even going so far as to use "Paul Brown" as a character name) but my curiosity about the freemasons combined with cool adventure and just that i like thinking that somewhere old but familiar there could be some tiny insignia that unlocks a secret world carried my entertainment through this movie. I have only one gripe: why stone masons would choose to use wood for the stairway winding down to their ultimate treasure chamber... clearly just a plot device and an excuse to inject a lackluster "tense" scene in the movie to make it more... bland i guess. Other than that though, it was fun!

Now, if they were REALLY cool, they would've put some clues in the end credits that leads to a goose chase on the internet that culminates in a coupon for a free movie or DVD or something. oh well.
