There isn't a great amount of Tom Hanks time as the film focuses more on story than character development and this did well with me being that I had more than enough introduction from the first movie. His portrayal of the elitist, yet misunderstood rank of the Catholic Church was very good and combined with the victim of his treatment Camerlengo Patrick McKenna (Ewan McGregor), you will find yourself choosing sides immediately upon introduction. Cardinal Strauss (Armin Mueller-Stahl) was easily my favorite character in the movie. I didn't feel this was with Angels and Demons, the plot was straight-forward and the action kept the interest level peaked throughout. The Da Vinci code threw so many angles at you in such a short time that a quick bathroom break would leave you a bit confused on return. With a cast of award winning actors, Ron Howard does a good job of directing a story that was easy to follow and even easier to accept. Robert Langdon and his knack for solving puzzles, Angels and Demons ups the ante by providing a huge puzzle with an 8 hour limit.
