It's an expensive amalgam of cliches.
Flat in many levels, especially acting and plot wise.
It's maybe a good "sunday afternoon" movie if you want to waste some time.

You can tell that this script was taken from a book and was pressed into a 1h 45min runtime for Hollywood.
Result: Unintelligent plot without enough character development, over the top acting, silly one-liners and too much bang-bang to cover up the plot holes and the inconsistencies.
Some good things: A few of the actors seem to have tried to take the material seriously. Also, the photography is up to par here with great sets and beautiful visuals.
And most of the action sequences are impressive.
So these are a few reasons to watch if you want to switch off and just kill some time with this mindless flick. I personally didn't hate it but...the plot...can't be saved.
Maybe if it was 2,5h long it could have been a bit better...? We will never know.
5,9/10.

After finishing watching a movie I always ask myself if I was entertained. In the case of Infinite I would be lying if I said no. It was entertaining, even with some severe plot holes, and scenes that didn't make much sense. It's just an interesting concept for a plot, maybe not perfectly executed, but still it was pleasant to watch. The cast was good, no complaining about that, so honestly I don't get all the extreme negative reviews. What do you expect from a sci-fi movie? It to be realistic? I don't. I just want to sit down, relax, and enjoy the show. That's what I did. Is Infinite going to be remembered? Probably not. Do I care? Certainly not.
A very intriguing concept turned into a big slick shiny MarkieW look-at-me object requiring constant 'juvenile fiction' level narrative exposition and incessant suspension of disbelief to the point of disassociation with reality, One of those scripts that won't even obey the parameters of the physics set by the world they created thus making 'stupid' the subtext of what would otherwise be really cool action and ideas.
I wrote that a half hour in and didn't need to change it by the end.

Infinite had an interesting premise however the way it has been executed is far from satisfactory. The idea of how there are two contrasting lives fluctuating the universe could have been turned into an exciting film but director Antoine Fuqua ruins it all with a tepid execution .He focuses on gloss with substance taking a complete back seat! It becomes so hard to endure this film after a point . Mark Wahlberg is decent but there is a reason why this was dumped on Paramount plus! Disappointing!
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe movie is based on the book "The Reincarnationist Papers" by D. Eric Maikranz. He found it difficult to catch the attention of a literary agent that would sell the book to Hollywood. On the first page of the book, he offered a commission to anyone who could get his book into Hollywood. Eighteen months later, he got an email from a Hollywood assistant director who found his book in a hostel in Nepal. In 2017, Paramount Pictures bought the rights.
- GoofsDuring the interrogation, Bathurst comments that the room is completely sound proof and that the officers in the other room wouldn't hear the bullet, however both him and Evan hear the car racing and approaching from the outside. If the room was truly soundproof they would not have heard it and been crushed by it.
