"INFINITY is surely a ridiculous film, but I suggest you leave your logic and common sense at home as neither apply in this film. This is a good old fashioned techno thriller from the days when nobody understood technology. I understand that films like that may not work nowadays, but I still had fun with it here." - Joel Sapperstein, Las Vegas Review-Journal
"An ambitious idea for a film that doesn’t work for me. I still sat here confused and questioning what in fact I just watched. I’m all for a bonkers movie but killer numbers emerging from a computer is where I draw the line. " - Sam Nestera, The Daily Telegraph
"While not a terrible project on paper, INFINITY has fatal flaws that have ultimately doomed it. Waiting so long to bring Tom Cruise into the film was a crucial error on the part of the filmmakers as not only is he the film's best performer, but also its primary box office draw. Ultimately though, the plot doesn't make much sense and doesn't have enough fun with the absurdity it creates." - Dave Manning, The Ridgefield Press
Rated PG-13 for violence, language and scenes of peril
