It is a satisfying but thoroughly idiotic film, in which relationships make no sense, character motivations change on a dime, and Tom Hanks has weird hair. But brainless as it is, it’s artful. It is a well-made bit of silliness, a piece of construction optimally designed to maintain audience interest while garnering absolutely no one’s respect.
Great movie. Continues the excellent genre of thriller/history lesson that I've come to appreciate in this modernized trilogy. Lost of twists and turn, well acted, very happy with the movie.
I love this movie - good story - best actor tom hanks - best location - excellent genre of thriller/history. angels and demons + the da vinci code + Inferno
Part of the draw of these movies is that they don’t create beauty, but instead borrow the emotions of the beauty they depict. (This, more or less, is one definition of kitsch, courtesy of the philosopher Tomas Kulka.) That makes the movies easy to watch and easy to forget.
The chase, chase, chase pace is tiring, not least because it’s not clear who many of these people are and what agendas they’re following. Mixed-up confusion is the result.
Inferno...is the kind of movie that stops — and stoops — to explain, early and often. Not that the explanations amount to much; the movie makes almost no sense.
If you're a fan of the series, it really is a film worth seeing. That being said, if you're a fan of the books it may leave you cringing at how they butchered a couple of the characters. Essentially, they had to change the ending so that it was less of a think-piece and less drawn out, but unfortunately they ruined one of the main characters in the process and that alone left me uneasy at the end of the film. Not to mention they basically blow through one of the cities so fast it almost feels like it wasn't even really a part of the story, which it absolutely should have been.
Regardless, I think one could certainly enjoy actually seeing some of the many places mentioned in the book during the film, which basically takes place exclusively in beautiful places. Minus the depictions of hell, which feel a bit like a horror film, at times. Still, worth seeing
Mystery of the painting and the story still be debating. But the film still fail to rescue the history. Leave just a good journey, not the intimidating chase
The Pandemic Movie Is Perfect for The Current Covid-19 Pandemic.
First of all, I didn’t know anything about Inferno (2016) movie things are the sequel to The Da Vinci Code (2006) and Angels & Demons (2009). In the earlier minutes, I get puzzled by a lot of things, and sadly, I just understand it in the middle of the movie. How stupid I am or I’m supposed to be felt like this as the moviemaker intended? The movie is about a professor, Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) had puzzled by an amnesia attack and tried to figure out about any event that actually makes him a crucial world-changer – involved in a pandemic attack idea. So, maybe it is okay for me to get puzzled caused the main chars are also puzzled lol.
In my personal POV, I didn’t expect anything and I’m very ready to get surprised by this movie. Overall, it's satisfied me and I’ve had a lil bit surprised. The pros of this movie are the insightful knowledge, great movie plot, and systematics narration. I really like how insightful this movie is with various actual knowledge – science, history, and pandemics. I’ve been triggered to do my own research about all of that. I’ve felt getting smarter even though I didn’t really get it lol. The other pros are this movie had a tricky plot which is amazing, and systematically great narration because as a person who knows nothing, I could catch up for this movie sequel. However, the movie's cons are the plot transition felt too puzzled without a simpler explanation. It felt kinda boring caused of their long explanation to solve the main char's puzzled memory. It's getting more boring because of lack of emotional quality, I didn't feel any intense at any intense moment. Lastly, the movie ending seems didn’t satisfying enough and the audiovisual quality is just standard, followed by the quality of the acting performances.
Overall, it is great to watch as movie consumption during the Covid-19 pandemic. Inferno really gives insightful knowledge and entertaining value. But beware yourself, just please don’t think about conspiracy theories about pandemic was actually purposed to be made. If Covid-19 was really like that, I’d definitely believe whoever made it’s gonna chased over the centuries. LOL. Just enjoy your Inferno with the iconic actor, Tom Hanks.
The worst of the three movies and the most insane. This movies story so absurd characters just teleport everywhere and somehow always know where each other are. The dialogue has some atrocious moments that made me almost laugh and the line delivery seemed like the actors remembered “oh **** I am going to be paid a ton for this ill try like 2%”. In my eyes the enjoyable parts of the other films were the ridiculous puzzles that somehow tom hanks knows instantaneously and both of the orignial films are filled with huge exposition dump after huge exposition dump. This movie is not as much like the other two films in that way, there is a lot of explaining, a lot of story telling and puzzle solving stuff but there is much more focus on the story and that hurts it because the story is ass. The characters once again are trash, they have nothing to them except for the ability to BE BLAND AS **** But this movies plot is so ridiculous its just hard to care at all. Inferno has less going for it than both of the other films I would suggest just watching the Da Vinci Code and not going near Angels & Demons nor this film. I also want to say that even though I think the other movies are non stop exposition dumps that is what gives them their identity. The absurdity of langdon knowing EVERYTHING IN EXISTENCE can sometimes be a little enjoyable. So all of the value for me in the first two movies is tom hanks knowing everything and explaining **** to people. dumb/10
Let me break this down for you in terms of my thoughts:
The best:
+ Tom Hanks is ace as usual
+ Some interesting ideas
+ It's nicely shot
The worst:
- Hanks hair
- Felicity Jones character
- It's boring
- Bland directing
- Horrible writing
- Who ask for a third one?
Good luck with the next Han Solo movie, Howard.
