INFERNO

Inferno is an action-packed crime movie that has you hooked from the very beginning. I really enjoyed this film because of the storyline, cast, suspense and message. While watching, I felt as if I was actually in the movie playing one of the main characters. It's like watching a huge mystery game which making this movie awesome and exciting.

After waking up in a Italian hospital with symptoms of amnesia, Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) teams up with Dr. Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones). Together, they go on a journey across Europe to stop one of the antagonists (Ben Foster) from unleashing a deadly virus that can decrease the world's population.

My favorite part of this extraordinary movie is the very beginning. Once the movie starts, you instantly come apart due to the confusion that is going on in Tom Hanks' and, consequently your mind. That is what makes the audience adore this film because it's as if you have a role in the film along with the actors. Another aspect I like is the cast. Each character is different in their own right as we can see from their background stories. You tend to question yourself many times because you are unsure who to trust and who not to trust. That is what makes this movie so thrilling and exciting. There is also a lot of historical information about religion and other cultures which is explained in a way that helps you understand what is going on and allows you to interpret as you choose. I applaud the author of the series, Dan Brown and the screenwriter, David Koepp for their terrific skills in creating an interesting and compelling story.

Without giving away the ending, the message of this film is based on a biblical term "Seek and Ye Shall Find.'" In other words, you search for the truth no matter what the outcome may be. Tom Hanks is searching for the Inferno disease even though he has a feeling of what is at stake. I recommend this film for ages 13 to 18 and adults will enjoy it as well. And, I give this film 5 out of 5 stars for its excellent storyline, mystery, action packed script and outstanding cast and crew. Inferno comes out to theaters on Friday, October 28, 2016. I suggest you buy a ticket and check this movie out as soon as possible! You definitely will not regret it.
