    I went to watch this last night, to be honest I would have enjoyed poking my eyes out with a Brexiteers pen more.

    I won’t spoil it for you, but if you’re a “fan” of this sort of thing then you could probably make up a more interesting story and blink into a halogen lamp with more enjoyment.

    So, good, bad? Stop sitting in the fence.

    Saw the preview when I went to see a decent film (Free State of Jones) and Inferno looked atrocious from the trailer! Can’t stand Tom Hanks anyway, so no chance I would’ve gone to see it really 🙂

    The first one was just awful so I’ve no intention of watching the others.

    I heard a review which picked up on my criticism of the books where Dan Brown assumes everyone is stupid and needs the most minute detail given about the most mundane tasks.
    I’m sure some will enjoy the film, which is a recording of moving images that tells a story and that people watch on a screen or television.

    You’re giving Inferno too much credit there 😆

    I thought the Davinci Code was going to be one of those rare beasts where the book is worse than the film (I’m looking at you High Fidelity), mainly because the book was atrocious and I didn’t think it could be worse.

    I was wrong.

    You went to see a film based on a Dan brown novel and thought it would be good ?

    I think you need a long hard look in the mirror

    Grimy off of radio 1 fell asleep so although he’s an utter idiot I wouldn’t of gone to see it because if it can’t stimulate someone with that sized brain, it certainly won’t float my boat!

    My reflection in the mirror is way more handsome than the image I have in my head of myself, blessed with charm and intellect and open optimism.

    MrsBouy fell asleep for 15mins too…

    Yes it was a pretty poor film, but what annoyed me most was the soul searching about a lost relationship,

    “I couldn’t ask you to leave Cambridge”
    “and I couldn’t stop you from going to Geneva”

    Bloody hell, that’s only about 10 hours by car through Le Tunnel and probably quicker on Eurostar. Leave on Friday lunch time, and you could be getting jiggy with it that evening. FFS. Americans and their grasp of geography.

    I put up with the book – up until the last couple of pages…

    WTF??? Did Dan Brown suddenly realise he had a train to catch…?

    Same as the other two Dan Brown films then.

    Well there is one good thing that this film has going for it and that is a good old fashioned Kermodian rant. It’s not up there with Pirates 3 or Sex in the City 2, but it was still a joy to listen to.

    Is this the one with Noetics (sp?) in it?

    I worked with someone who believed everything she read in that book as gospel (pardon the pun). 😯

    I think Inferno could be the worst book I’ve ever read, I don’t know why I bothered finishing it, truly awful, it even makes the Da Vinci Code seem like a literary classic.

    So if the film is worse than the book 😥 😥

    Oh dear, just back from the bug house and you weren’t joking

    I actually enjoyed DVC, tolerated A&D but that was just awful. Took the whole family too…. 🙁
