Into the Inferno's reviews
Media reviews
New York Times
It?s an exhilarating trip, filled with strange stories, fascinating rituals and ethereally beautiful images of bubbling magma and flowing lava, some of which were captured using drones.
Indiewire
Herzog shoots first, and asks how the footage might be pertinent to his project later; Into the Inferno often feels scattered and listless as a result, but this tactic is also responsible for so many of the movie?s most perfect moments.
Los Angeles Times
Even as Into the Inferno invites us to marvel at our insignificance in the face of Mother Nature?s seething primordial firepit, Herzog, being Herzog, refuses to lose sight of the human element.
The Hollywood Reporter
It might be sacrilege to suggest that Herzog could use a more strong-willed collaborator, but this film sometimes turns into a rather misshapen cinematic essay. Nevertheless, you won?t be sorry to witness the apocalyptic images of nature blazing and roaring.
