In the book, Robert Langdon was woken up by the police in his hotel room after he had given his speech of symbolism, but in the movie it begins with Mr. Neveu leaving his codes as well as flashing back and forth to Robert’s speech. Right after his speech is done, the police collect him and bring him to the crime scene for investigation. This creates a more suspenseful aura and effect for the viewers rather than the laps in excitement in the book.
The police involvement in the book is more prominent by explaining the step by step process and thoughts for finding the suspects of Mr. Neveu murder, Sophie and Robert. In the movie the police participation is still there but more subtle in order to make it shorter so the viewers did not get bored with the scenes being too long.
The descriptions are very detailed in the book and lets the reader see into the aspects of the plot and characters, but the movie brings it to life. With the sound effects, putting descriptions of characters to faces, camera angle, lighting, and being able to see the intricate paintings and imageries of the landscape, the movie is not better than the book, but what it enhances your experience into the adventure.
Little things in the book were taken out to draw the attention more to the important parts of the plot. For example, trips by car and taxi, trips to libraries, extra people that they meet, and private thoughts of the characters. All of these things add impact in the book, but if it were in the movie it would just distract the audiences and extend unimportant parts to the movie instead of focusing on the important ones.
