What to Know

Critics Consensus

Senselessly frantic and altogether shallow, Inferno sends the Robert Langdon trilogy spiraling to a convoluted new low.

Anne Cohen Refinery29 The real plague: The pervasive sexism that creeps into every aspect of this plot. Jun 28, 2017 Full Review Jordan Hoffman Vanity Fair When you want to put down Sky Mall for a few minutes, Inferno will be right there, on the back of the seat in front of you. Dec 12, 2016 Full Review Christopher Orr The Atlantic Inferno is better than The Da Vinci Code or Angels & Demons, but both of those films set the bar reprehensibly low. Nov 14, 2016 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review The arrival of Inferno, Howard's treatment of the fourth novel in Brown's series, feels marked by the underwhelming previous efforts and a decided sense of obligation toward maintaining an unwanted franchise. Rated: 2/4 Apr 9, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy As a character, Langdon has even less dimensions than the more animated sleuths Carmen Sandiego and Dora the Explorer, and it's sad seeing Hanks wasting his talents in such a gossamery role.

Joel H Perhaps it’s because I haven’t read the book, but I felt a little puzzled during Inferno. With The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, I had read the novels, so I knew the backstory and felt like I understood why things were happening. Watching this movie felt like being on a historical roller coaster where I was quickly rushed from one plot point to another without any real explanation. Sure, there were some suspenseful moments, but the story didn’t seem to have the depth or cleverness that the others did. It’s not that surprising that Inferno is the most-forgotten film in the Robert Langdon trilogy. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/18/25 Full Review Matheus F Not the best movie of the triology, but the photography, the soundtrack and Felicity Jones' performance are very impactful. I'm really gonna miss Tom Hanks playing Robert Langdon... thanks for the memories, Sir. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/29/25 Full Review Tim C Before seeing this, I thought that Tom Hanks had never made a bad film. This is truly dreadful but, to be fair, the book on which it's based is worse. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/25/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/28/25 Full Review Pablo S Es Entretenida pero pincha en cambiar el final del libro Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/25 Full Review David G Terrible film. How to completely mangle a good book by making the ending pointless, whilst turning it into a stupid romantic thriller. Don't watch it - rubbish. Dan Brown should sue.
