Infinite is a chaotic film. Plucking from well-worn cliches, it’s familiar enough to scratch the itch of action entertainment. Yet its world-building is so wonky you might do better to switch off your brain and let the flashy stunts wash over you. Read full review

Infinite has some impressive set pieces combining practical effects and CGI, and the terrific cast approaches the material with grim-faced sincerity, but it’s ultimately a big bag of nonsense wrapped in glossy packaging. Read full review

Infinite certainly has the star power to ignite some interest, and it's an entertaining ride with a compelling concept. At the same time, it buckles under the weight of its own world-building and suffers from a surprising lack of urgency. Read full review

Heading straight to streaming platform Paramount+ without the embarrassment of appearing in theaters first, the movie is both blissfully incoherent and weirdly generic, as if it had been assembled from the spare parts of other movies and glued together with stuntwork. Read full review

The more you start to nitpick this movie, the more innumerable its plot holes appear, until the whole thing collapses in on itself. Read full review

Infinite muddles around with some wishy-washy Eastern philosophy, and has mostly charmless actors (with the exception of Ejiofor, magnetic against the odds) duel and drive while mouthing exposition that lacks even a wisp of subtext. Read full review

Infinite feels like a depressing fable about the movie industry. Read full review

One of the best action movies exposing the public to reincarnation. You can ignore the low scores here and on Metacritic. This film is NOT chaotic (it had three directors, keep reading). Rather, this film suffered the same negative reviews any film using valid metaphysical concepts does.One of the best action movies exposing the public to reincarnation.

This is an actioner in the GI Joe Snake Eyes mold; also, the best of Stephen Sommers best summer popcorn actioners; possibly, also David Leitch's Hobbs and Shaw (better film). The way actioners entertain is based on:
- Pacing is more important than character,
- Imaginative action stunts help a lot,
- The conviction of actors and director to the material is crucial.
This movie has lots of in-camera and CGI effects. This means the movie's director can use the two VFX directors working on this film with him as a "brain trust" for how to shoot scenes, camera angles and many plot points. I believe this is happening here. The visual flair here is way above many of this director's other films, for example, The Equalizer.… Expand

INFINITE is an exciting distraction at best and a middling, oft-times wooden thriller at worst. Antoine Fuqua directs with a sense for 90's action flicks and while that's not necessarily a knock on the movie, its certainly a case of so-bad-it's-good. Mark Wahlberg is, like always, playingINFINITE is an exciting distraction at best and a middling, oft-times wooden thriller at worst.

Mark Wahlberg is, like always, playing himself, and with a spattering of likeable side characters, there's definitely nothing to hate here, just nothing you haven't seen before.… Expand

Infinite has an interesting story idea that gets buried beneath CGI-heavy & subpar action sequences, barely fleshed out characters, and a general lack of worldbuilding.

Commando 1985 is documentary compared to this and don't know who approved this that's all I have to say.

This movie is the stupidest movie I've seen in the past years. It looks like some 5 year old boy came up with all this.
