Critic Review - Film.com

Why are quality pros like Howard and Hanks involved in this enterprise? Do they need the money? Angels and Demons is sure to make plenty. But their artistic souls will do hard time in purgatory for it.

Well seeing as they are just actors I must object this. quote "But their artistic souls will do hard time in purgatory for it." This was a storyline written having nothing to do with the actors, so even if your religion implies that a person that practices such things as in "the Da Vinci code" or "angels and demons" it doesn't mean Hanks and Howard will go to purgatory for it, because they don't actually believe all of these things. They are merely representing a piece for our entertainment. God smiles on those that live a happy and peaceful life, so if acting (and contributing money to charities as they have done countless times) makes them happy then I believe they are excused and will be happily welcomed through the golden gates for bringing enjoyment to many people with they're fine acting skills

I certainly hope this was a play on words and not an actual review..

Here we go again (your either religious or Catholic) I bet you gave New Moon and Transformers and other zombie movies some good reviews (mindless Movies) and I expect you ran 2012 down as well.
People want to go and watch escapist movies to take them away from the hum drum of normal life ,,, and this movie does exactly that: as per the Catholic side of things I say " Hoooray" for Queen Lizzy the first, she told those Spaniards where to go with there Catholic religion, who cares about the Vatican and the Pope. All people want to do is go and watch some excellent actors in a exciting movie..

Not only is it good money, it's effective disinformation.
