It’s only the third week of the summer movie season, yet here we are with a third TENT POLE blockbuster!
THE DA VINCI CODE’S 2006 production partnership of director Ron Howard and producer Brian Grazer reunite with Tom Hanks who returns as Professor Robert Langdon in ANGELS AND DEMONS.This time Hanks is summoned by the Vatican to assist its police force, as well as the Pope’s Swiss Guard with a deadly terrorist threat against Vatican City.
All this in the midst of the death of the Pope and the selection process of a new head of the Church known as CONCLAVE.
The Crime?
Four leading Cardinals have been kidnapped and one of them will be executed every hour with it all ending at midnight with the powerful explosion of a container holding a newly produced energy source hidden somewhere within the Vatican compound.
The Perpetrators?
An ancient order of Priests known as ILLUMINATI who seceded from the Church over disagreements of scientific views and now are out to avenge the Church’s attacks which took place 200 years ago!
Hanks mission –
Pick up on the Illuminati’s complex web of clues which lead him through a maze of Vatican monuments.
