Not sure if anyone's brought this up yet, but I'm sure the Gnostic teachings that were in the book will probably be promoted by the movie as well. Here is a blog that has a lot of information.

I've been down that road myself, and I know once I let just a trickle of doubt come through, it turns into a flood.
