Ratings:2.5/5 Review By:Rajeev Masand Site:News 18
This is essentially pitched as the brainy version of a James Bond or Jason Bourne film, but to be fair, Inferno is more accessible and packs more thrills than The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons. A clutch of wrong choices, however, derails the films breathless pace.But the big problem with Inferno is that it never really creates a palpable sense of danger despite all the chases and gunshots. You know Langdon will crack the mystery in time, and you know everything will turn out just fine. But it never keeps you at the edge of your seat, worried that hes cutting it too close. Im going with two-and-a-half out of five for Inferno. It unfolds at a crisp two hours, and despite its shortcomings, theres enough to enjoy. You might want to give it a chance.

Ratings:1.5/5 Review By:Raja Sen Site:Rediff
Hanks has crossed the line with Inferno — Ron Howards adaptation of Dan Browns novel of the same name — and stepped firmly into Cage territory, by making a sad, schlocky mess of a movie with an inane plot, daft storytelling and bad hair. This is a simplistic, silly mess that tries desperately to appear intelligent by invoking the name of Dante Alighieri a dozen times — when all it really wants to do is be a National Treasure goof.It emerges as neither because Howard and Hanks treat the material as if it makes sense instead of embracing its B-movie heart, as a modern-day Cage movie would. This could have been a glorious so-bad-it’s-good entertainer, but thanks to its self-seriousness, Inferno emerges merely bland and undercooked.

Ratings:3.5/5 Review By:Gavin Site:TOI
The film adaptation of Dan Browns bestseller (Inferno) may not be an edge-of-the-seat thriller but it manages to hold your attention and involve you in its quest. Inferno, however is not a total smooth ride. It drags in portions, especially when it comes to Langdons personal life. Also its flooded with standard clich©s that imply the professor being humanitys last hope etc. However, despite a few flaws, Ron Howards film is a competent adaptation and offers mild cerebral entertainment that manages to engage you. Go join the hunt.
