Mitzi Gainer I've seen a lot of science fiction movies because i love scientific theory and I work in a genetic laboratory here in southern California.Obviously there were several subplots going on that appeared to be sharing the philosophy and theory of God, which I believe in. I may work in the science sector of the medical industry but I still go to my Catholic church in which I was raised and received my first communion and confirmation name.The element that really resonated with me in this story was the melding of creationism and intelligent design. it thoroughly tossed the two possibilities together and made them much more than coincidentally work in concert.I enjoyed viewing the back drop in the Bahamian Islands where I have visited several times during my college education at the University of Miami. Nice job.

froberts73 Usually, when a film pits religion against science, movie makers see to it that science wins. In this case, for a refreshing change, religion comes out on top -thanks to Mr. Whetstone's beliefs and talent in telling a story that will be Greek to the geek, and others who have a problem with God.The story is exceedingly complex, and if you blink an eye or go to the bathroom without hitting the pause button, you will be thoroughly confused afterwards.I've seen this twice, once because I knew nothing about it and, the second time because I wanted to make sure I knew something about it.Another thing I enjoyed is the fact that the religious people involved were not treated as dolts. Their intelligence was matched by their dedication.The performers were a giant-sized help, particularly Fitzpatrick and Miss Alonso who was Miss Venezuela in '75. David Warner was excellent and, in some odd but successful casting so was singer Lou Rawls.To summarize: This is a complex, but refreshingly successful movie - no sex scenes, no bad words - proof that you can tell a story minus all that stuff. The problem is, the public gets what it wants.This movie could be shown in most churches (not the fringies, who wouldn't understand it anyway) and could start quite a conversation.This has nothing to do with the movie, but I am still looking for an explanation about Noah's Ark - and dinosaurs. Questions - always questions.

Steve I won't completely dissect this movie. It isn't worth the time, and you can get basic plot details from other reviews. Suffice to say it's exceedingly stupid. I gave it two stars largely because at times it's shot well. Some scenes look better than a movie with this budget and this much aggressive incompetence behind it should. I'll just comment on a couple of things beyond that.The Code Conspiracy uses a lot of technical jargon, mostly in the form of cryptographic and technological talk, to try and lend some weight to its (weightless) religious message. Like pretty much everything else in the movie, it fails to do this and succeeds only in annoying and boring the audience.Vast, brainless sections of this movie make no sense whatsoever. There's no reasonable explanation for what happens late in the movie on the beach. What goes on as people are getting on the plane, and why it does, are muddled at best. I get the sense that huge portions of the film that would have helped things to make sense were excised. But the rest of the movie is so badly paced--filled to overflow with pointless scenes and long, lingering shots we don't need--that it's hard to buy that as an excuse.Pacing is the movie's worst failure. Any stupid flick, even a pretentious one, is more forgivable when it's short. I've seen hundreds and hundreds of awful movies, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that probably 90-95% of them clock in within ten minutes of the ninety minute mark. How on earth this movie thought it could get away with a hundred and ten mind-numbing minutes is a mystery more compelling than any Bible Code.This movie's pretty good for laughs, though. MST3K fans may recognize David Warner from Quest of the Delta Knights. Again, though, it's paced very slowly. There will be some boring spots, but keep in mind there will be something completely ridiculous just around the bend. I especially love the awful, awful songs.Lastly, I want you to consider all the positive user comments this movie has received here. All of them were posted in the first half of 2005, and almost every one of them--no matter what the country of origin (and there are lots of those)--misuses commas in the exact same bizarre way. Every single one of them also either has commented on no other movies, or has commented only on other movies that starred Jim Fitzpatrick. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that's not a coincidence. Thirteen reviews. Bogus. Every other review besides those? Resoundingly negative. The score this movie has is clearly equally bogus. Or maybe it's... dun Dun DUN! A conspiracy!

Zjukov I like the idea behind the plot, but the execution is terrible! To give an example: The main character hurts his foot badly in one scene at the beach -- and right afterwards he runs energetically up the stairs. The script is flawed and non-engaging... The "bad guys" are awful actors, especially the boss. You never get to see him but you can hear his mean evil voice, like this was some kind of Batman movie.=SPOILER= And what about this code? All you hear is some old rabbi mumbling about how important it is, you never get to actually see any of it. Ridiculous. And this secret agency never thought of the idea that the CD may have been copied and distributed? Enough said.
