Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

A Surprisingly Unforgettable Movie!
Allison Davies
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Part 3 in the Dan Brown/ Robert Langdon 'books to films' see's Hanks return in another Ron Howard directed film, this time it's "Inferno" that gets the treatment. The female co-pilot in this film, as each story has had one, is Felicity Jones as Sienna Brooks. Waking up in a 'hospital' with 'amnesia' Langdon has to solve the mystery of his lost memory while working on the mystery of solving a modified version of Dante's "Inferno", which will help them uncover a global terrorist plot created by billionaire Bertrand Zobrist (Ben Foster). Having no memory makes it difficult for Langdon to know what lead him here, what's happened and what coffee is called. Twists and turns, high adrenaline, book-smart sleuthing, with a little more paranoia than before. This film really had a lot of potential, more so than the other films - it's darker, has potentially bigger fatality risks for humanity and it has a lot of unexpected twists. Unfortunately I found this to be the weaker of the three films pumped out so far. Dialogue and reasoning was occasionally stupid. Intentions and motives were sign posted. The bad guy is really the good guy and the good guy is really the bad guy - a staple for these Dan Brown films. It's all been done and is a bit tired. The main change was that the riddles and clues weren't marked out as obviously for the audience, in fact they were glossed over pretty quickly as if they didn't really matter - if you've watched the film, think back - what was Dante's map of hell there to point out - most people probably won't remember without it taxing their thoughts for some time. This was a theme - rather than look at the puzzles it was more a case of being a chase film. What happened to the end of the film too? Avid book readers will know that this is not how the book ended - it looks like director and producers wanted their own version of the end to make the film fall in line with Hollywood - nothing gets answered or resolved - the issue of overpopulation, which is a central theme to the movie, is still there at the end. It hasn't been looked at, hasn't been solved - it's all as it was when the film started. A little let down, 5 out of 10. Not awful, but definitely not great either. I don't think there will be many more of these now - this trilogy seems to have gotten worse in all aspects, from directions to cast delivery, from scenery on view, to performances, from story telling to plot twists.

Despite amazing scenery, the plot is so implausible that the more the film unfolds, the more it ironically descends into Dante's depiction of hell. . . Major plot twists are poorly explained at best, and at worst are awkward and ill-fitting and in satisfying thriller. The entire need for Langdon (Tom Hanks) seems pointless and silly. Meanwhile, the attempt to release a virus to reduce the world's population seems pointless when the chief beneficiary commits suicide.Langdon's love interest sub plot also sinks with lack of credibility or authenticity. . . The entire film looks like an early draft that was never given the much needed rewrites to bring the plot up to the same high level as the impressive scenery and beautiful filming.My 3/10 is solely to give credit to the scenery and filming. If you feel inclined to watch this . . Suggest you tape this from free to air TV so that you can fast forward or end the misery that accumulates with each passing minute, without having lost any pecuniary asset other than your time.

This is the worst I've ever seen. If you read the book , try not to watch this movie.
1.the characters are nothing as described in the book, many as well not even in the movie! Where the hell are they?
2.what the fuuuuuuu just happened to the ending?????? Why changing it so much!!! The ending has nothing to do with what the writer described in the book, why did the hell they changes it and made it too easy and not even fun?
3.WORST THIS I'VE EVER SEEN! STOP DESTROYING THE PEOPLE'S FAVORITE BOOKS JUST TO GET THE DAMN MONEY!
4. So many scenes are not even close to the book.
This is just some poor production , and bad acting, everyone seems to be just want to finish the damn movie.

I cannot remember ever being so disappointed about a movie. I have been angry about it all day. Totally ruined. Normally when you make a movie over a book, its fine with tweaks here and there to make it work. But making a whole new plot and ending? Thats just completely unforgivable. COMPLETELY.NEVER watching it again... going to read the book thou.
