INFERNO
June 17, 2017  | By David Bianculli

Starz!, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 2016 thriller is the latest entry in the adaptations of Dan Brown’s popular, puzzle-filled dramas, launched with The Da Vinci Code and starring Tom Hanks as crafty symbologist Robert Langdon. Once again, Ron Howard directs, and the screenplay is by David Koepp, whose screen credits include adaptations of Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park, Brown’s Angels & Demons, and, currently, the classic Universal horror movie The Mummy. But this latest Brown story has Langdon suffering from amnesia, and teamed with a doctor, played by Felicity Jones from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. They’re about the only two familiar faces in the entire movie – but it’s the plot, and the twists, that are supposed to fuel this Inferno.
