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

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 11, 2021

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.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 18, 2021

"Infinite" is overcluttered with special effects and plagued by wooden acting and doesn't have one genuine character in it.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 16, 2021

The pace of all the action gets tripped up by a convoluted plot that Infinite tangles instead of unfurls.

Full Review | Jun 15, 2021

The premise of reincarnation and star power can't save this film from its sci -fi abyss

Full Review | Jun 15, 2021

Perhaps no director could breathe life into a film with such an absolutely dire script, and with such a sloppily superficial sense of its own worldbuilding and interior mythology.

Full Review | Original Score: 40/100 | Jun 14, 2021

Maybe "Infinite" isn't crazy, it's just misunderstood.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Jun 14, 2021

Fuqua does what he can to sprinkle garnishing on cold leftovers, but the script barely holds together, and seems to emanate from an alternate reality where no other sci-fi films or games were released in the last 25 years.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 11, 2021

Viewed at home, from the perspective of the couch, the effects are smaller, the holes in the story bigger, the acting infinitely more ridiculous.

It keeps stalling out even when it switches transportation modes.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 10, 2021

Mostly... Infinite feels like a depressing fable about the movie industry.

Full Review | Jun 10, 2021

It's the worst kind of soulless committee-made product, lazy and risk-free, that need never and will never be thought of again. Infinite? Not even close.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 10, 2021

Infinite flattens a high-stakes battle of good and evil into airless action of little consequence peopled by characters that amount to even less.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jun 10, 2021

Rather than crafting a high-concept science-fiction marvel, Fuqua's "Infinite" relies on shoddy VFX and ropey world-building for the worst film of his career.

Full Review | Original Score: .5/4 | Jun 10, 2021

The more you start to nitpick this movie, the more egregious its plot holes appear, until the whole thing collapses in on itself.

Full Review | Jun 10, 2021

Wahlberg, who usually has a way with a cynical wisecrack, seems to sprain muscles trying to sell his character's attempts at light-witted banter.

Full Review | Jun 10, 2021

"Infinite" has some impressive set pieces combining practical effects and CGI, and the terrific cast approaches the material with grim-faced sincerity, but it's ultimately a big bag of nonsense wrapped in glossy packaging.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 10, 2021

What Infinite fatally lacks is personality. It's all sci-fi table setting all the time, racing through introductions and plot points at a mercenary pace, its wheel manned by a star whose default mode for this kind of movie is hunky frowning.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Jun 10, 2021

"Infinite" only runs 106 minutes, but you'd do anything not to live through it again.

Full Review | Original Score: D | Jun 10, 2021

This feels like a paycheck job all around, and Bathurst speaks for everyone when he proclaims that "Newer is almost never better."
