Dante's Inferno: Uma Animação Épica

Writing this review after 12 years is hell alot of time but the story and animation deserves some applause .

I heard there are 7 writers split for each plot so the bodyworks and Armory for dante and virgil keeps changing in each circle. As for the 9 circle of hell it explains everything in short and speedy and there's no way to go deep into it and for a movie past a decade this one is a thumbs up.

Dante's Inferno: An Animated Epic (2010) is a movie I recently rewatched for the first time in a long time on Amazon Prime. The storyline follows Dante's wife taken to hell by the devil himself and Dante finding a way to chase her down there with hopes of rescuing her.

This movie is directed by Mike Disa (Hoodwink too! Hood vs Evil) and contains the voices of Graham McTavish (The Hobbit), Vanessa Branch (the Cell), Steve Blum (Cowboy Bebop), Mark Hamill (Star Wars) and JP Karliak (The Boss Baby).

The animation for this is awesome. The monsters, ghosts and settings were excellent and the kill scenes, gore and blood splatter was remarkable. Hell's torture elements were very well presented and the storyline evolved perfectly. The conclusion fit the movie perfectly and kept the appropriate tone and darkness that overshadowed the entire movie.

Overall this is a very well done animated picture based on a video game. It isn't perfect but is definitely worth watching. I would score this a 6.5/10 and strongly recommend seeing it.

A story about a crusader and holy man named Dante witnesses his bride to be killed and her soul taken by Lucifer to the ninth circle of Hell, Dante must take the journey through each levels of Hell to get to Beatrice.

The color pallets are smoothe with good coloring, it gives a glimpse of each of level of Hell as we progress through tge story. Granted it has blood gore and action in between with a few grotesque entities that ly within the inferno, however the action is short lived as Dante battles Hells guardians with barely a minute of any real fighting between the two until the end, the battles seemed too easy for Dante even though he is mortal with the grace of his guide and God's will. Even mighty warriors get scuffed up in a fight before attain victory.

The story feels too fast paced in certain areas as if it can't wait to show you the big final battle.

It's a worthy view and has well made animation but lacks more detail to what Dante is fighting against not just what he's fighting for. The atmosphere of the inferno is a now you see me now you don't and almost ignores its hell residents with only a mere introduction. Character is pretty straight forward its a damsel in distress scenario but it's descent.

Someone else chose the film, so I expected nothing. I had a vague idea that it might be an animated movie based on Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. It was not. It is actually based on a video game also released in 2010.

That being said, Dante is not looking for God, as in the poem, he is in Hell to find the soul of his beloved Beatrice, whom he betrayed and therefore was taken by the Devil, right after his whole family was killed, mostly because of him. What can I say, the woman bet with the Devil that in three years in the Crusades, her guy never touched another woman. Girls really believe these things.

Anyway, each circle of Hell is animated differently, I guess by different animation teams. The styles are all what I call "American Rock and Roll", though, something like an early offshoot of Disney animation, that then got bad ass and full of anger. I mostly liked the animation and if only for that Dante's Inferno is watchable.

The story is another matter entirely. The guy enters Hell and kills everything he gets his eyes upon, barring his mother and girlfriend, including demons and even Satan (twice! :) ). I was watching the film and I was wondering how could Alighieri have written something that feels like Rambo in Hell. Only afterward did I find that the plot is based on a video game.

So, based on the animation (and on the fact that most animation movies now are crap) I give it a slightly above average. Plot: ridiculous. Therefore the resulting below average mark.

Dante, a knight, returns from the crusades only to find that Something Bad Happened while he was gone. He goes to Hell, going through all nine levels(including the sewer one), engaging many creatures(most from other mythologies than the Christian one... and this *does* criticize the theology some, if I'd have liked it to do so to a greater extent)... fortunately for him, he can cut through most of them with his sword or a scythe... getting to the deepest one where the devil wants to marry his wife, because apparently even the lord of evil can't screw someone if there isn't a ring on that finger... hey, don't ask me. This is based on a game I've never played and barely know anything about. The voice acting is OK, but I wish they'd speak up, or turn the volume down on the otherwise good FX. It is fun, fast-paced, and has good action, except for when you can't tell the dimensions or where people are in relation to one another. Epic? Sure, if that doesn't require an actual story. The animation varies, partially because they keep changing who does it. There is a ton of bloody, gory violence and disturbing content and some nudity and sex in this. I recommend this to fans of bad-assery that has to do with religion in some way. 7/10
