Review: There are infinitely better things to watch than ‘Infinite’

• Copy Link URL Copied!

The silly, junky science-fiction thriller “Infinite” posits a universe where reincarnation is real and a few human souls have the ability to retain memories from their past lives. I wish I could leave it at that, but at the risk of too precisely replicating the leaden rhythms of the movie’s ceaseless voiceover, I must continue. These memory-retaining “infinites,” as they’re called, fall into two groups. First there are the nihilists, who think the whole damn system is rotten and want to destroy life as we know it. And then there are the believers, guardians of eternity who consider their knowledge a precious gift to be used for the betterment of humanity.

My own act of humanitarian service this week will be to advise you against watching “Infinite,” a directive that would appear to have the tacit endorsement of the movie’s own distributor. Once scheduled for theatrical release last August before COVID-19 delays set in, the movie arrives this week on the streaming service Paramount+, where it will patiently await its future reincarnation as an in-flight movie or a blip in a Mark Wahlberg career-highlights reel. Wahlberg plays Evan McCauley, a troubled dude with a violent past and a schizophrenia diagnosis. But those strange voices and hallucinatory visions aren’t signs of mental illness; they’re vestiges of the many bodies through which his soul has passed over the centuries, which explains his ability to speak Russian and forge ancient Japanese swords.

“Explains” is the operative word in Ian Shorr’s busy info dump of a script, adapted from D. Eric Maikranz’s novel “The Reincarnationist Papers.” Sharing most of the expository duties here are a lip-smacking villain, Bathurst (a wildly over-committed Chiwetel Ejiofor), who tries to jog Evan’s befogged memory, and a well-meaning young believer, Nora (Sophie Cookson), who tries to do the same. After all, Evan may or may not be the latest vessel for a mysterious, messianic figure known as Treadway (played in an earlier incarnation by Dylan O’Brien), whose actions could determine (yawn) the fate of humanity.

The director, Antoine Fuqua , makes slam-bang action movies that occasionally rise above the workmanlike, usually when Denzel Washington is involved (“Training Day,” “The Equalizer”). He and Wahlberg made a proficient enough team years ago in the muscular conspiracy thriller “Shooter”; their reunion was not worth the wait. Much frenzied violence ensues, some of it dispensed in cross-cutting training montages designed to reawaken Evan/Treadway/Whoever’s latent gifts, and some of it in explosive set-pieces that feature remarkable new innovations in vehicular penetration. (If the sight of O’Brien smashing two dashboards with one brick doesn’t thrill you, the sight of Wahlberg using his sword to stab a jet plane in mid-air might do the trick.)

Little else about “Infinite” registers as particularly novel — or, despite some attention-grabbing turns from Toby Jones, Jason Mantzoukas , Liz Carr and Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, interesting. Wahlberg, who usually has a way with a cynical wisecrack, seems to sprain muscles trying to sell his character’s attempts at light-witted banter. The script doesn’t reincarnate so much as it recycles, drawing freely on the nested realities of “Inception,” the free-your-mind metaphysics of “The Matrix” and the amnesiac-assassin revelations of the Jason Bourne movies. Maybe watch one of those tonight instead. “Infinite” may last a finite 106 minutes, but transmigration of souls or no transmigration of souls, life is too short.

Rated: PG-13, for sequences of strong violence, some bloody images, strong language and brief drug use Running time: 1 hour, 46 minutes Playing: Available June 10 on Paramount+

I’m sure Mark Wahlberg , Chiwetel Ejiofor , and Toby Jones signed on to Antoine Fuqua ’s globetrotting sci-fi action flick “Infinite” with the best of intentions. On paper, the premise sounds like a killer idea: Reincarnated warriors locked in a centuries old war work to save humanity. On one side lies the good guys, the infinites. On the other, the nihilists. Here, the nihilist Bathurst (Ejiofor) is searching for a silver egg imbued with the power to end all life, thereby suspending reincarnations. Only one man, Evan McCauley (Wahlberg), has information about the weapon’s whereabouts. He just doesn’t know it yet. 

”Infinite,” Ian Shorr and Todd Stein ’s adaptation of D. Eric Maikranz’s novel The Reincarnationist Papers,  combines elements of “ The Old Guard ” and “ The Matrix ,” with a splash of “ The Fifth Element .” Unfortunately, the product falls far short of the lofty works from which it draws. Rather than crafting a high-concept science-fiction marvel, Fuqua’s “Infinite” relies on shoddy VFX and ropey world-building for the worst film of his career. (Yes, worse than “ King Arthur .” Yes, worse than “Brooklyn’s Finest.”) 

From the outset, the filmmaker tries to paint a wide canvas but fails to fashion a detailed visual language. In Mexico City, set during “the last life,” for instance, three infinites are involved in an elaborate car chase. As they wisp and wind down wide, empty streets, in a scene barely stitched together for semi-coherent action, nothing in the costumes, hairstyles, or architecture clues us into what decade we’re inhabiting. Fast-forward to the present “in this life” in New York City and a stream of compositions—a slow-motion bustling Manhattan street bathed in orange sunlight, and cranes reflecting off an office window—read like stock images.   

Here, Evan is interviewing for a job at a fancy restaurant, a gig he could easily win if not for his troubled past. Years ago he assaulted a customer after they sexually harassed a waitress. Evan blames the incident on his schizophrenia. See, odd visions and voices often visit him. One moment he’ll dream he’s a Japanese sword maker, and then next, he’ll forge a sword. To keep these apparitions at bay, he takes extra-strength pills, buying them by selling his hand-made weapons to a local drug dealer. Outside of the problematic insinuation of mental health patients as inherently dangerous, Fugua places zero trust in the audience to follow the very basic plot. Rather Wahlberg provides a glorified temp track as the film’s voiceover, wherein with all seriousness he says, “These meds are running out. And once they do—shit gets real.”             

Eventually, Evan pops on the respective radar of both Bathurst and the Infinite. Though Ejiofor plays Bathurst as a man warped by his mentally painful life—he just wants to die—that trauma isn’t felt at all.  Ejiofor turns in a perplexing performance that elicits a bevvy of confounding questions rather than providing an actualized character. I couldn’t spot the genesis of his thick, obnoxious accent that borders on Saturday morning cartoon special in its wide specificity. Nor is Bathhurst’s origins comprehensible: Where does his immense wealth come from? Where are the other nihilists? 

The Infinites invite similar question marks. A leader in the image of Professor X, the wheelchair-using Garrick ( Liz Carr ), guides the team. Her top soldiers include the tall, bearded Kovic ( Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson ) and the highly skilled Nora ( Sophie Cookson ). The team hopes Evan is the reincarnated form of Treadwell, the agent who first hid the egg. In the case of Nora, specifically, she wants to see her former lover again (his spirit is being imprisoned by Bathurst) and believes the egg can bring him back. The character dynamics between this trio and Evan aren’t at all built out. Rather Fuqua is handed this intriguing world but refuses to add contours to these heroes or their powers. The same goes for the group’s researcher played by Toby Jones, and a debaucherous neurologist portrayed by Jason Mantzoukas .

Instead, Fuqua is far more interested in the crafts driving the film. Which wouldn’t be a bad idea if the crafts were anything to write home about: The score thrums at an unmemorable rate. The fight choreography and execution is dreadful. In one scene, it’s excruciatingly clear that stunt doubles filmed an entire hand-to-hand combat sequence rather than Ejiofor and Jóhannesson. In another, wherein Evan and Nora raid Bathurst’s mansion, the editing is an epic mess that’s impossible to follow due to poorly articulated compositions. And even if you could follow the onscreen action, you soon wish you couldn’t. Worst yet, the storytelling in “Infinite” never drives the tacky VFX—soldiers are seemingly suspended in air as wood shards shred them to death—and overabundant stunts like an acrobatic confrontation between Evan and Bathurst in the hull of a transport plane.

Without great characters and the aesthetics to match, “Infinite” is a misguided soft toss by Fuqua directed with franchise goals. You get the sense that its unanswered questions, such as the religious component of these powers, is purposely left obscured to cater future films. Instead, the obfuscation totally weakens this movie. In an action-adventure that concerns living multiple lives, don’t waste yours watching “Infinite.”

Infinite Review

Mark wahlberg headlines an action-packed adventure about reincarnated warriors, but gets outshone..

Infinite is now streaming exclusively on Paramount+ .

From the start, Infinite feels like a throwback to late ‘90s action movies, in which a steely protagonist was tossed into a hi-tech world of mind-bending truths that demanded a man of action to save the world. This terrain was charted by a string of Batmen, Keanu Reeves (The Matrix Trilogy), and Denzel Washington (Virtuosity). This time, Mark Wahlberg brings his working-class snarl to a tale of reincarnated warriors and an eons-stretching battle for the fate of the world. While the story is fresh, the path feels familiar, for better or worse.

Reteaming with Shooter director Antoine Fuqua, Mark Wahlberg stars as Evan McCauley, a middle-aged outcast who struggles to find work or friends because of the voices in his head. Since he was a teen, Evan’s been told these voices and visions are proof he’s a schizophrenic. However, after forging a samurai sword with inexplicable ease, he’s outed as one of the few humans on earth who can recall all their past lives. These rare people are called the Infinite. A spin on superhero origins, their recall allows the reincarnated to be master warriors and brilliant strategists, who’ve honed skills over the ages. In each new cycle, the Infinites band together to use their powers to preserve and guide humanity. However, not all of the reincarnated are grateful for the memory of thousands of lives lost. Led by the brutal Bathurst (Chiwetel Ejiofor), an Infinite death cult called The Nihilists wants to die. The only way to assure they die for keeps is with a special egg that’ll bring on the end of all life on the planet. There’s just one hitch: the egg was last seen with Evan’s previous incarnation (Dylan O’Brien), so the fate of the world lies somewhere in his untapped memories.

Adapted from D. Eric Maikranz's 2009 novel The Reincarnationist Papers, Infinite pulls heavily from The Matrix, positioning an unsatisfied everyman (albeit with six-pack abs) as an unrealized messiah to all mankind. Also serving as an executive producer on the film, Wahlberg clearly relishes this power fantasy, flexing his 50-year-old buffness in shirtless scenes and bringing a simmering surliness to lines like, “Where I come from, we got bills to pay and rent to make. No one’s got time for destiny.”

Also, like The Matrix, this handsome misfit finds a community in a band of rebels, colorful though thinly defined. Kae Alexander has blue hair and martial art skills. Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson has a beard and a bad attitude. Liz Car has a wheelchair and a smirking sense of humor. You get the idea. The character development for much of the Infinites is only substantial enough to build the team, but not enough to have us emotionally invested when they’re at risk from the marauding Nihilists.

Even Evan is given little in the way of character depth. Schizophrenia, self-harm, and history of assault are peppered in as shortcuts to a harrowing backstory. However, the trauma such experiences would care are not exhibited but papered over by Wahlberg’s blank stare. Stern yet intense, he’s great at playing the tough guy, but when vulnerability is required, he’s missing the mark.

Only Infinite ass-kicker Nora (Sophie Cookson) gets much in the way of depth, thanks to flashbacks and a mournful monologue. She’s essentially the Trinity to Evan’s Neo, part guide/part sidekick. In a welcomed change, screenwriters Todd Stein and Ian Schorr don’t attempt to wedge in a romance. It would have been tawdry and awkward, as Cookson and Wahlberg don’t share a sexual spark. Instead, theirs is the chemistry of two world-weary soldiers, who have little patience but a deep loyalty to the cause. It’s actually refreshing that being in love isn’t a requisite for saving the world.

True to a dynamic that dates back at least to James Bond, Wahlberg’s steely hero must face off with an eccentric villain. Known for acclaimed performances in prestige dramas, Chiwetel Ejiofor appears to revel in the chance to get a bit weird with it, delivering an all-over-accent that is an aural smorgasbord. It’s ridiculous, but it works, reflecting all the times and places this Nihilist can’t shake. His every from-everywhere enunciation crackles with manic energy and the agony of a thousand identities shredding his brain.

The action sequences reflect this polarity of grit and garishness, busting out car chases, sword fights, hand-to-hand combat, and some truly audacious bits. Though the computer graphics sometimes fall into the regretful Uncanny Valley, some sections—like a scene involving a helicopter and motorcycle—are so bonkers that you can’t help but jump back on board. Still, the pace of all this action gets tripped up by a convoluted plot that Infinite tangles instead of unfurls.

The whole Infinites versus Nihilists thing is explained repeatedly, often with a flurry of names of characters we’ve barely met. Making things more confusing, some of the names are hard to hear over the blare of screeching tires. Then, of course, there’s the tricky bit that multiple actors play the same character in different lives. (Think Doctor Who without time travel.) All this can make things murky, especially as dongles and subplots are introduced. Perhaps this is why a Wahlberg voiceover is plunked over the opening, explaining all the key points a full half-hour before his character will learn them.

While aiding in plot clarity, this Walhberg Explains It All introduction kills the tension of the first act, because we’re already ahead of Evan on who he is and what this world is really all about. Thus, scenes where Evan sneers through a job interview and gawps during a violent police interrogation fall frustratingly flat. We already know where it’s going. Let’s get a move on!

Infinite is a chaotic film. Plucking from well-worn cliches, it’s familiar enough to scratch the itch of action entertainment. Yet its world-building is so wonky you might do better to switch off your brain and let the flashy stunts wash over you. Wahlberg is staunch at its center, but relies on Cookson to bring in the pathos. Ejiofor is a thrilling foe. Yet the main reason I’d actually recommend this movie is for its scene-stealer: Jason Mantzoukas as a brain-fetishizing degenerate known as The Artisan. Once he swans in with mischievous gaze, crooked smile, and a wardrobe that seems snatched from centuries of club culture, Infinite briefly becomes a much more interesting film. This charismatic oddball brings a devil-may-care attitude that cracks Infinite out of the familiar action-movie mold, suggesting something truly unexpected might happen next. It won’t. But for a brief moment, it feels Infinite might rise to Mantzoukas’s level of fun. Here’s hoping some savvy director will promote this character actor to action hero. Can you even imagine what that movie might look like? I can’t either. But I bet it’d be more daring and rewarding than Infinite.

"The Wildest, Most Offensive Thing": Wicked Star Responds To Viral Edit Of Movie Poster

Anna kendrick learns people are incorrectly googling the new netflix movie she directed: "like a smear campaign", how new karate kid movie connects to cobra kai finally explained by ralph macchio.

The concept of reincarnation has lent itself to numerous stories over the years and it gets a sci-fi twist with Antoine Fuqua's latest film,  Infinite . Once expected to debut in theaters last summer, the Mark Wahlberg-starring movie, which is based on D. Eric Maikranz's  The Reincarnationist Papers,  arrives on Paramount+ today, making it the streamer's most high-profile cinematic debut so far.  Infinite certainly has the star power to ignite some interest, and it's an entertaining ride with a compelling concept. At the same time, it buckles under the weight of its own world-building and suffers from a surprising lack of urgency. Between the stars and the action,  Infinite has plenty of elements working in its favor, but the overall product still leaves one wanting.

All his life, Evan McCauley (Wahlberg) has been plagued by strange dreams and visions he can't account for. He was diagnosed with schizophrenia at a young age, but there's much more to the story. Evan soon learns he's known as an "Infinite," a person blessed with the gifts of reincarnation. Evan has died and been reborn thousands of times, meaning all of his visions are, in fact, real. He, along with several others, task themselves with protecting humanity from the Nihilists, or Infinites who have grown frustrated with their endless births. The head Nihilist, Bathurst (Chiwetel Ejiofor) aims to destroy Earth in its entirety with a MacGuffin known as the Egg, but the only person who knows its true location is Evan - or better yet, his past self Heinrich Treadway (Dylan O'Brien) does.

Reincarnation is a fascinating topic, and as the basis for a secret organization in a sci-fi movie, it's a pretty compelling one. Viewers are treated to quick flashes of Evan's past lives, and editor Conrad Buff IV does an excellent job cutting between those past glimpses and the present day, lending a genuinely disorienting feel to Evan's journey. However,  Infinite  isn't much interested in Evan's past beyond his last life, Treadway. It's a shame that screenwriter Ian Shorr (building on a story by Todd Stein) opts to avoid giving more weight to the past lives, particularly since several characters are hinted at having deep histories. This feels especially true when it comes to Evan and Bathurst, two practically immortal men with vastly different viewpoints.

As a result,  Infinite  goes without some emotional heft. As an action flick, it succeeds. Fuqua certainly knows how to stage engaging set pieces, whether it's a car chase that literally starts inside of a police station or one hero's stand against an opposing strike team that outnumbers him.  Infinite is an entertaining ride, but a lack of depth with the characters and the mythology keeps the audience from getting too invested in the heroes' task. Though the fate of the entire world is at stake, there's a strange lack of urgency in the proceedings. The action is thrilling, but not quite in the sense that one is worried about whether Evan and his allies will be able to keep the Egg out of Bathurst's hands.  Infinite instead feels like Fuqua couldn't dig into the material beyond its potential as an action film. Of course, that's not a bad thing if one wants an entertaining sci-fi thrill ride. But if one wants to delve deeper into the concept presented,  Infinite  comes up short.

Leading man Wahlberg handles Evan's disorientation, then commitment to the cause well. If there's a sense that Evan has adjusted to the reality of his being an Infinite startlingly quickly, that's more a script issue than anything having to do with Wahlberg's performance. He dives into the action with gusto and fares the best out of everyone in terms of character development. As the cynical Bathurst, Ejiofor growls and rages his way through an intimidating portrayal and he manages to give the villain some additional layers of depth as well. On the other end of the spectrum is Sophie Cookson's Nora. The  Kingsman  alum isn't given much else to do beyond provide exposition, leaving Nora's characterization feeling like a missed opportunity. The MVP of  Infinite just might be Jason Mantzoukas as a wildcard known as the Artisan; he brings a comedic flair to the film and makes a mark with a character who arrives late into the action.

Infinite is the second movie to skip theaters and debut on Paramount+ and it's a shame it won't be seen on a big screen. However, this also means it can find a new audience who might not have been tempted to seek it out on Wahlberg's star power alone. For those looking for an intriguing sci-fi story with solid action,  I nfinite  will fit the bill. However, for those aiming to go a little deeper, it won't quite satisfy. But sometimes all one needs is a fun popcorn movie to fill a summer night.  Infinite can definitely do that.
