Into the Inferno Reviews
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
As fun as Herzog's highly imitable voice can be, this particular film arguably works best when he remains quiet and simply stares at the fiery void.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
A series of portraits of obsessed people, each painted by one of the most likable obsessives in cinema.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
The busy-ness of its conceit grounds Werner Herzog in a documentary procedural form that's surprisingly conventional by his standards.
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
Into the Inferno is a strong argument for feeling a sense of wonder in the face of things you don't understand.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
A lazy, meandering mess that gives off no heat.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
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.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
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.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
In the documentary realm there's nothing more pleasurable than top-drawer Werner Herzog.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
It is, as usual, a fascinating free-form essay, with stunning visuals, thoughtful voice-overs, and a few persona-generated giggles. But it's not entirely what you'd expect, and that's mostly to its benefit.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Werner Herzog teams up with volcanologist Clive Oppenheimer for a globe-trotting tour of sites that have inspired bizarre belief systems.
Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Herzog has always shown a gift for immersing us in the startling extremes of the natural world, and his images here do not disappoint.
POV Magazine
Jason Gorber
f a great documentary is meant to lead you into a journey both surprising and exhilarating, then Into the Inferno succeeds in spectacular ways. A masterwork filled with stunning visuals and captivating environs.
Brooklyn Magazine
Michael Joshua Rowin
Herzog continues to make great films, especially the kind of informative yet mysterious documentaries with which his name is synonymous.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
He's an old softie, now. That's incredibly boring.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A visually spectacular Werner Herzog documentary about volcanoes and the magical responses they evoke in people.
Metro
Matt Prigge
Not a return to Classic Werner, but it does find him doing what he does best: scouring the globe for otherworldly sights and weirdos, musing on humankind's insignificance while highlighting our most unique specimens.
The Film Stage
Dan Schindel
Into the Inferno is a memento mori aimed at the whole human race, and only Herzog could make one this non-pretentious, funny, curious, and respectful at the same time.
Film Journal International
Rex Roberts
More fumarole venting than magma opus.
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Louis Proyect
A reminder that volcanoes can be just as deadly as grizzly bears and just as much of an inspiration for arguably the world's greatest septuagenarian director.
The Film Experience
Glenn Dunks
Inferno is a remarkably entertaining and spectacularly gorgeous return to form.
