Dan Brown: El símbolo perdido

It's almost offensive how bad the acting is. These actors are giving us the least amount of effort possible. I feel like I'm watching a high school play where I suppose we should just be amazed they memorized the lines. Zero chemistry between actors. Zero suspense. Scenes are shot like absolutely no attempt was made to elicit an emotional response from viewers. Bland. Formulaic. Predictable. Saved By The Bell demonstrated more gripping storylines. If you enjoy this show, good, I'm glad you get something out of it. But I'm terribly sorry that you need your mysteries spoon fed to you by a D-Grade cast and crew who are completely out of their depth.

There's a good amount of intrigue mixed with a bit of WTF? Just one note for NBC/Universal: THERE SHOULD NOT BE AN APOSTROPHE IN "It's cryptic text..."! The opening frame of the show, and somebody needs an editor.

The casting is off. Brown's novels work by constant unrelenting forward momentum so you need actors of exceptional "connection" to make this work. There are none here.

I was so looking forward to this , and i am so disappointed , Acting off, Eddie Izzards cut off hand is so fake that a child could have done it better , and most characters just feel off , except the night guard , he is spot on.

I've read all of the books, and all but Origins more than once. Yes, the books are fast paced, as are the movies made so far. It's refreshing that they've slowed it down a bit. The decision to have a younger Langdon works for me as it gives us the opportunity to see him at a time where he's still learning, that he doesn't have all the answers at the drop of a hat. Every profession requires time to "catch on". I personally don't see a political agenda. That's usually for those that are looking for one or complain because something doesn't align with THEIR beliefs, aka confirmation bias.

It's a work of fiction with some factual information and places thrown in ; some of them even tweaked to tell a fictional story.

What makes me laugh are those who do not like the books but they still watch the show and the movies. WHY????. Oh, just to have something to get on the ole soapbox and whine and cry about it. I get it if you love the book but not the show (Ive felt that way about many Stephen King adaptations) but, come on.
