Inferno

Good.

good movie

Inferno is the third movie in the Robert Langdon trilogy based on the novels by Dan Brown. The movie was directed by Ron Howard and Langdon was again played by Tom Hanks. The movie starts with Langdon waking up in a hospital in Italy with no memory of his past few days. After an attempt on Langdon's life in the hospital, his doctor, Sienna Brooks (played by Rogue One's Felicity Jones), helps him escape, and from there the movie pretty much follows the format of the prior movies, with Langdon having to solve various clues (this time tied to Dante's Inferno, hence the title of the movie) to figure out a larger plot. Here the larger plot involves a billionaire named Bertrand Zobrist who has invented a way to deal with the overpopulation of the earth, and the movie is really about Langdon finding a weapon that will carry out Zobrist's plan. For those who get the blu-ray, the A/V quality is very good, and the visuals of Italy look great in HD. The extras include about 30 minutes of deleted and extended scenes, a couple of making-of featurettes including interviews with the cast and crew, and Dan Brown, discussing the story, a feature on the filming locations, short featurettes on each of the main characters, and a director's journal in which Howard discusses the process of making the movie. Then there are previews for other Sony movies. What is included is good, but there are not tons of extras. Overall, I think if you enjoyed the first two movies, The Davinci Code and Angels and Demons, you will probably like this one too. While I do think the other movies were a bit better than this one, I do think it is a worthy follow-up and a good way to end the trilogy. Hanks stepped back into the role of Langdon easily, and Felicity Jones in her role as the female lead. The story does have a lot of twists and turns, some of which can be a bit silly, but if you have seen the other movies, you kind of come to expect that. While this is the third movie in the trilogy the other movies are really not required viewing to understand this one, but it does assume you know who Langdon is and does not do much development of that character.

Great

Good dvd came sealed and brand new.

The film killed the original political message of the novel. Dan Brown had a 'virus' to be released that would affect the entire world population with random infertility, rich and poor, so called first and third world evenly. No indigenous culture ever created overpopulation for its eco/bio-system, however, colonizers did not only bring diseases that killed entirely populations, but they brought Christianity with them. That became a murderous aspect to populations pressed out of everything by colonialism but left with twisted religious ideas. While western, modern countries such as Japan and Germany cannot make it without a foreign population increase to feed/work for his ever increasing number of retirees, the so-called third world is being told that they have too many children. At the same time, Christians feed the notion of any sperm has to turn into a baby--counter acting any attempt of population control in the most starving parts of the world. Dan Brown's novel had not the most ideal solution, but it did not have a lunatic trying to bring back the plague. IT is disappointing that both Felicity Jones and Tom Hanks went along with this script. It only leaves us to assume that they missed to read the novel. The movie is somewhat stronger in its entertainment value, but it is weak in having a logical impact. As a matter of fact, it places a billionaire (nobody else would have the money to orchestrate this) and not a genuinely concerned scientist at the center of it, and thus kills the whole point of the story. The book is not about weird, fanatic rich people and their zealous semi-underaged lovers plus a hint of "Muslim" driven "world saviors"? Especially now, since Turkey and Istanbul that used to be vibrant international centers of culture have fallen to Erdogan's violent, totalitarian regime, giving this additional note of fanatics is a very disappointing aspect of the film. It even harms the reputation of great and resistant scholars in Turkey. The most important messages of the novel: the world in total is overpopulating in comparison to its resources; to be fair, a reduction in the exploding level or reproduction is necessary, but it should be done fairly, i.e., randomly hitting every single continent. AND in the novel, which works differently from these love trails, the 'virus' is released and is going to take effect. Furthermore, no black man has to play a bad guy, and killing people is not made part of the deal!!!! Book 100% interesting, movie 50% for being somewhat entertaining and suspenseful, though I have to say, if you do not know the film yet, being suspenseful is in part due to the question how much they will kill the actual story. Once that is clear, a big old void is left. Really sad that a great opportunity to make a good book into a fantastic movie was spoiled for "political reasons or sensitivities"?

Great Price! Fast Shipping! Recommend Seller!

Inferno ist die dritte Verfilmung eines Dan Brown Buches mit dem Hauptdarsteller Robert Langdon und die Verfilmung des insgesamt sechsten Dan Brown Buches und des vierten Buches mit der Hauptfigur Robert Langdon. Wie schon bei den beiden vorherigen Filmen (The Da Vinci Code & Illuminati) hat auch hier wieder Ron Howard Regie geführt. Genauso ist auch wieder Tom Hanks in der Rolle des Robert Langdon zu sehen und Hans Zimmer für die Musik verantwortlich. Wie auch schon bei den beiden vorherigen Verfilmungen ist es auch hier durchaus gelungen sich sehr nahe an der Buchvorlage zu bewegen wobei man hier diesmal zwei großen Ausnahmen gemacht hat. Nämlich bei der Wirkung des Virus und dem Schluss insgesamt. Robert Langdon wacht plötzlich verwirrt, verletzt und ohne die Erinnerungen an die letzten Tage in einem Krankenbett in Florenz auf. Zusätzliche schreckliche Visionen verwirren ihn zusätzlich. Als plötzliche eine italienische Polizistin das Krankenhaus betritt und wild um sich schießt beginnt für ihn eine Tour die ihn durch drei Städte, zwei Kontinente und an die menschlichen Abgründe führt. Hinsichtlich der zwei großen Veränderungen war ich vorher schon sehr skeptisch. Ich bin ein großer Fan von Dan Brown, seinen Büchern, besonders den Robert Langdon Büchern und auch den Verfilmungen. Und was ich an diesen immer besonders geschätzt habe war das man sich hier immer näher an der Vorlage bewegt hat als bei anderen Buchverfilmungen. Hier ist man diesmal davon abgewichen und bevor ich den Film gesehen habe, war ich mir sicher das das eine schlechte Entscheidung war. Doch nachdem ich den Film gesehen habe muss ich zugeben das ich die Entscheidung gut finden kann. Gerade für die Spannung des Films war es eine gute Entscheidung. Der Film insgesamt beginnt doch sehr hektisch. Vom Buch her war mir das nicht so präsent. Doch die Hektik legt sich schnell und auch als Zuschauer der das Buch nicht gelesen hat kommt gut mit und kann sich vorstellen was passieren könnte. Klar gibt es auch wieder viel zu lesen. Robert Langdon und seine hübsche Begleiterin machen zusammen Florenz und Venedig unsicher und gerade vom ersteren bekommt man wirklich viel interessantes zu sehen. Die kleine Stadttour darf hier einfach nicht fehlen. Das Steelbook kann genauso wie der Film überzeugen. Optisch wirklich ein toller Hingucker der sich auch gut im Regal macht. Das Steelbook enthält eine Blu-ray mit dem Film und einigen Extras. Bild und Ton können auch überzeugen. Ein toller Film, der mich wirklich begeistert hat. Sicherlich teilweise anders als die beiden Vorgänger Filme doch definitiv sehr spannend und einfach gut gemacht.

Encore un (très) grand Tom Hanks. Belle adaptation du roman de Dan Brown.

Ce film est génial. Captivant du début à la fin.

Not bad
