"The film's pacing often makes it feel like a video game, with Purgatorio often lacking the emotion found in Inferno." - Josh Manning, NY Daily News
"It's almost as good as Inferno, but where it really struggles is
in the main villain department. None of the antagonists of this sequel
come anywhere close to Gary Oldman as Satan." - Reggie Dunn, Sacramento
Bee
"Tom Tykwer once again gives the audience a visual feast and gets another solid performance out of leading man James Franco." - Perry Manson, CinemaBlend.com
