Angels and Demons

Very luke-warm and digestible in that Ron Howardy way. As if to prove how safe he wants it to be, he includes the ubiquitous casting of a family member – his father Rance as an important Bishop dude. The writers play it safe. The technical stuff is all safe. Tom Hanks is REALLY safe casting. There’s no one safer. (Why MUST “Robert Langdon” be an everyman?) It’s not an awful movie, but I just wonder what these Dan Brown movies might have been like helmed by someone more daring.
