The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

a disturbing film. for one as me, far by video games, admirer of Dante Divina Commedia, expecting a reasonable adaptation of the old book for a new generation. every expectation was destroyed, in precise manner. and he only verdict remains - it is the perfect choice for the fans of video game. nothing bad but almost predictable. this Inferno did part from a large genre who propose myths and legends and classic stories in a manner so bizarre , than , for old men like me, it is not easy to understand the deep purpose of this real industry. sure, the word blasphemy is precise to define it for many motifs. the graphic is impressive and the story so complicated than could be accepted. monsters, fights, crumbs of old Medieval novels, the hero and the Evil. and nothing more.

I shall start by saying i loved the game so had high expectations of this film, i thought it was OK up until just after greed, what annoyed me about the film was it bad acting, i didn't feel a connection between the voices and the actions that were taken e.g Beatrice was just poorly presented as a character especially when she was with the devil. Also i didn't get why most of the characters changed appearance the further Dante went into hell including the main character himself, i just felt it was a big let down for both animation and story compared to that of the game. I almost fell asleep during this so i'd skip this if you loved the game and are expecting better

This was one of the worst things I've seen in a long time. I got maybe a third of the way through on it Netflix while skipping through annoying parts and eventually just gave up on it because it was too painful to watch. It seems to try to follow the book by using quotes here and there, but almost every other detail is far from the original story. I didn't see the point either, because the "creative licenses" that were taken only detracted from it significantly. Since when is Dante a crusader? It was painfully corny. The voice acting was way too affected and overdone in every part that I watched. I'm shocked to see this was actually a pretty big production, because it felt like something some weird kid made in his basement.To emphasize my displeasure, I'd like to say that I've never written a review of any type for a movie and would usually consider it a waste of time, but this was much too disgustingly bad not too. I strongly recommend not watching this unless you crave torture or want to see a textbook example of how not to make a movie.

After fighting in the Crusades for three years, Dante rides back home to his family estate to reunite with his beloved Beatrice and his father. Dante sees a rider following him, but out of the blue, the man vanishes with no trace. When he arrives home, he sees the servants slaughtered, his father murdered and Beatrice near death. When her soul is going to the heaven, Lucifer takes Beatrice to hell, telling that Dante has betrayed her. Dante meets Virgil that guides him to hell, and the poet explains that Beatrice had bet with Lucifer that Dante would be faithful to her while in the holy war. In return, Lucifer would protect Dante and bring him back home safe and sound. In the arrival in hell, Dante learns that he needs to cross nine circles to reach Lucifer: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Anger, the Tombs of Heresy in the City of Dis, Violence, Fraud and Treachery. In his painful journey, he discovers who doomed his family to suffering in hell."Dante's Inferno: An Animated Epic" presents the journey of Dante to hell based on a video game and not on the poem of Dante Alighieri. The animation follows the Japanese style with few movements and is entertaining even for those that do not know the game. The screenplay is messy and in the end both Dante and his father deserve to be in hell since Dante is evil betraying his beloved Beatrice; slaughtering the prisoners in Jerusalem; permitting that his brother-in-law be blamed and hanged for his crime and his father is a brutal man abusive with his wife. However, Dante incoherently is able to save the souls of his mother and his beloved Beatrice using the cross she had given to him when she went to the Crusades. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Dante's Inferno"
