From a wide range of sources of inspiration they didn’t manage to put together a compact whole. There’s a little of Event Horizon, a little of The Thing, a little of Solaris, a little of Aliens, a little of Pandorum… and the count doesn’t end there. Taking inspiration from older works is a common thing in sci-fi and in itself that wouldn’t be a problem. But Infini, despite its unquestionably good craftsmanship and beautiful visuals, is unable to draw the viewer into its world (at least in my case). Watching it was such a fragmented experience, I was always telling myself in some scene “yeah, this is good, I’ve seen this…” I was unable to get into the story, the film kept me at arm’s length all the time.

A little bit of Alien, a little bit of The Thing, a little bit of Event Horizon, and a little bit of Pandora. Throw in mediocre actors, boring characters and a hackneyed finale, and it adds up to a barely average sci-fi with solid visuals, but one that gets boring before any really interesting things can happen.

A decently edgy representative of low-budget science fiction that again makes up for its lack of resources with some auteur vision and process, but on the other hand has to cram everything into three corridors and two rooms. Director Abbess is then free to do whatever he wants, which is most noticeable in the confused and anxiety-inducing prologue, in which we are introduced to that crucial transportation technology through several seemingly unrelated scenes and characters, whose occupation of the close-ups and cramped spaces creates an uncomfortably claustrophobic mood. While the second half paraphrases classic murder mysteries, it is still an improvement by having the actors murder each other and, more importantly, by the fact that it’s not very clear what is reality and what is bullshit. That's about the kind of thing I'd like from trashy sci-fi going forward, please.

A fairly enjoyable sci-fi that combines a lot of influences but fails to bring their foundation to a successful conclusion. However, I think the space the film set out to explore was utilized quite well, and even though it's cheaper, it doesn't really show that much. Too bad it's unnecessarily long and not gritty enough.
