Plus, he looks bloated and totally ill-at-ease all through the movie (like he was in Da Vinci Code too).

I dunno. Maybe others will have a different opinion than me about these films. But I can honestly say I didnt like either the first one or this one. Come to think of it, I dont even remember a single scene of the first one right now, and have forgotten most of this too.

Noted about the book. I ll get it asap during the coming vacations. Thanks. :)
I apologize, I misled you. I adore Tom Hanks' body of work.....I just don't like his portrayal of this character in these two.....well, I guess I have to say the first movie since I haven't seen the second one yet.
