Too bad it wasn't in a foreign language, I would not have been aware of how badly the lines were delivered.

This is sad because seeing a good movie in a Cine 1 is worth the extra cost. Expand

Giving this a zero for one main reason: They changed the ending from the book. That's pretty cowardly of them. Keeping the correct ending might have saved this movie. In addition, the movie just felt empty, like a train with no passengersGiving this a zero for one main reason: They changed the ending from the book. That's pretty cowardly of them. Keeping the correct ending might have saved this movie. In addition, the movie just felt empty, like a train with no passengers travelling hours from destination to destination, just because it is scheduled to do so, even though the reason for it's movement (passengers) is absent. I kinda feel bad for people who watch the movie without reading the book. They are really missing out on the flesh of the story. Expand

Don't watch this. It follows the book just fine, apart from the single most important part!!! (the ending). I really enjoy the novels, which to the contrary of several reviews form user and critic; they are masterfully written. You can't justDon't watch this.

Though a huge Tom Hanks fan that doesn't mean he always makes good movies.

I saw but don't remember the first two films based on the books by Dan Brown and this is the most forgettable of all, that is if you can even remember what the plot was about though it was again a case of a man wanting to rule the world and the good people who want to stop him.

Tom Hanks, not being a Tom Cruise, doesn't go around fighting 5 people at a time and winning the fight and, in fact, gets beaten up a few times, but, yes, recovers pretty quickly as only movie heroes can. At 60 he isn't running as fast or as much as he use to but the one thing Hanks has is that tremendous likability that always makes him a winner in any movie he is in.

There is a strong supporting cast made up of young, middle aged and old actors doing a professional job but, alas, all for nothing. I am a firm believer of checking your logic at the door when coming to see an action movie but the screen writer David Koepp and director Ron Howard seem to be deyfing you to follow the film. Yes, someone wants to eliminate half the population, as he feels we are overpopulated, releasing a virus and there are a load of red herrings and some people are out to stop the virus from being released.

Three things going for the movie are the soundtrack by Howard Shore, the production design by Peter Wenham and the cinematography by Salvatore Totino in Florence, Venice and Istanbul but that's not enough for a good movie.

If you haven't seen Tom Hanks in "Scully" then skip "inferno" or save your money to see "Moonlight" next week and "Loving" the week after!

To the actors i do not blame you but I blame the group of people that allowed the movie to deviate the ending away from the book in the hopes that a violent gun fight would sale more tickets compared to a non violent and truthful ending as the book presents.

So many useless characters that don't do anything to an already messy plot, with more puzzles needed to be solved, inconsistency with dialogues and story telling, even Tom Hanks couldn't save this movie

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 lineThe 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 Expand

Tom Hanks gives it his all, but he can't save Inferno from being completely unremarkable and very boring...not to mention convoluted and at times ridiculous.

Either Dan Brown is an idiot or he, on purpose, exploits stupid people. His books are poorly written and the plots as full of holes as a sieve. But since most people are idiots, I guess there is an enormous market for this rubbish. The plotEither Dan Brown is an idiot or he, on purpose, exploits stupid people. His books are poorly written and the plots as full of holes as a sieve. But since most people are idiots, I guess there is an enormous market for this rubbish. The plot in this book and movie is no different. It's so enormously dumb that it beggars belief that even Hollywood makes a movie out of it. But, of course, Hollywood is well known for exploiting stupidity. Expand

Inferno is as eerie and unpredictable as the other pictures of Robert Langdon's trilogy. And also leaves a surprisingly thought-provoking conclusion that may surprise some viewers. Unfortunately, the result is still being flawed and unsatisfying.

Where there people claiming for the exciting conclusion? Because to be honest, this was never exciting, interesting, comprehensible, or even fun. The imagery is confusing as hell, Tom Hanks seems to be more interested in finishing the movie that to solve the mystery. The villain has a plan that even now I'm not sure of what was about, the camera flashes and moves to a point that was very annoying, the music never captured anything, and all together came together in a mixture that ended up annoying and boring me a lot. Not recommended to anyone. Move on. Expand

Autant dire qu'elle était peu convaincante et qu'ici, elle ne m'a pas convaincu non plus. Ce n'est pas cela dit le plus gros souci de ce film à complot qui penche beaucoup trop du côté du thriller catastrophé avec ses courses-poursuites effrénées et agitées. Non, le plus gros souci, c'est le dit complot tout-à-fait grotesque et confus qui sort des lapins de son chapeau à intervalles réguliers et nous prend pour des gros cons.

C'est en fait tellement bas du front qu'on dirait une production Luc Besson mais sans Liam Neeson ni Jason Statham, c'est dire le niveau ! certes, on y fait du tourisme et on déblatère sur l'Enfer de Dante mais il ne s'agit que de poudre aux yeux !

En outre, notre bouffon hystérique français très à la mode, Omar Sy, y tient un rôle assez important et fort sérieux ! il est encore pire qu'au naturel, un vrai boulet pour le film qui n'avait pas besoin de ça pour couler à pic encore plus vite.

La réalisation de Ron Howard n'est pas exempte de défauts non plus : il abuse des gros plans et sa caméra est un peu agitée elle aussi. Enfin, les effets spéciaux sont également très confus et à l'image de cette production qui fait dans l'ensemble tout et n'importe quoi.
