I loved the book and Ive read quite a few others that explore that whole premise further. Ive also read some of Dan Brown's other works and enjoyed them as well.

Personally I suspect there is something behind all the panning by the critics.
Especially when the book was on the best seller list for so long,

Do you know the German term for "mullet"? It's probably the best word in the entire language.

(By the way, anyone else oh so slightly annoyed by the inaccuracy of the title of this book/movie?)

Tom Hanks has what we call "**** hair" and that is basically all it is. It looks like a bad piece per Richard's comment above.
I see you point, however the mullet has taken on many dubious forms in recent years. No, Tom Hanks' hair "style" isn't a traditional Kentucky Waterfall, yet there is a definite mullet tendancy. A little more stylized. Hence.......moo-lay. (bows with a flourish)
