probably just me: puzzles...


probably just me, but I immediately got bored of the "bad guy sets up something horrible, then creates a complex puzzle map for someone to thwart the whole thing" premise.

Is it just me?

It's as bad as when the bad guy catches the good guy, but instead of shooting him, we listen to him for ten minutes, dialogging the whole evil plot.

I mean, leaving breadcrumbs for Langdon to follow and shut down the whole purpose?? Come on. Just do your dastardly deed and OWN it.

Just me? I enjoyed everything about this movie: locations, acting, dialog, even the plot, but this map to shut it down thing really got old. Sort of felt that on the previous film too, but this one seemed misplaced with it.

Puzzles are the main character's thing as a symbologist, so they are vital to the stories in this series of films that are based on The Robert Langdon book series by Dan Brown.
