Infinite - Movie Reviews (2024)

With so many past lives to choose from, the filmmakers of Infinite still repeated the same mistakes when there should have been limitless possibilities. Instead, it’s an endless exercise in suspense-free filmmaking.

Infinite is at times comedically convoluted, but thanks to brilliant world-building and stellar action setpieces, it’s riotously entertaining regardless.

Perhaps the movie’s biggest shortcoming is that it spends a lot of time talking about relationships from the past rather than building any meaningful new ones on screen.

"Infinite" has all the elements you'd find in almost any action film. It just slightly misses the mark by not going all in and fully immersing the viewer in its reincarnation concept.

One of those grueling efforts that renders the science fiction genre about as much fun as a root canal sans anesthetics.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 21, 2022

The writing is so haphazard and choppy, and it leapfrogs over what needs to be explained... you don't have any emotional investment.

Brainless. The only skills the reincarnated team of assassins retain are fighting skills, leaving any provocative questions about transmigration unaddressed and any interesting ideas unexplored.

What follows is a ploddingly predictable slog through a confusing combination of sci-fi cliches and vaguely mystical mambo-jumbo that basically strings out a series of mindless pyrotechnic set-pieces.

If you ever wondered what The Matrix would have been like if the lead was played by a fifty year old who was also kind of like Jason Bourne, here's your chance.

If it's empty-vessel escapism you're after, this wonkily watchable affair will deliver what little you need.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 13, 2021

The visuals are spectacular, but things get increasingly derivative as they progress, and Jason Mantzoukas' ill-conceived comic-relief character falls clangingly flat.

If you understand any of it, please enlighten me, because I am in the dark.

The bad guys in Mark Wahlberg's reincarnation-themed action movie want to destroy the world so they never have to relive it all again. Having seen the film, I know the feeling

Full Review | Jul 14, 2021

Given the bona fides of everyone involved, it seemed reasonable to expect an entertaining adventure -- and at worst, dumb fun -- but the final product underwhelms at even the low end of expectations.

...it unfurls more like an M. Night Shyamalan sci-fi misfire...

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 1, 2021

This action film about reincarnation tries to relive the plot beats of countless better films. The end result is a derivative, messy and forgettable film.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Jun 25, 2021

Infinite boasts a high-concept story and extremely inventive action sequences, though Mark Wahlberg's performance leaves much to be desired.

Full Review | Original Score: 7 | Jun 23, 2021

Playing around with the concept of reincarnation is certainly promising, but Infinite makes the plot absurd for no reason. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Jun 22, 2021

I'll give points for finely crafted action sequences and a handful of bold casting choices, but beyond that, Infinite is decidedly, whole-heartedly average.

It's exactly the kind of big, silly, occasionally exciting spectacle that have come to define summer movie season, for better or worse. There's even an opening for a sequel.
