Ever wanted to watch a movie that's The Matrix meets The Old Guard but really terrible? No? Well, it does exists if you want it and it's called Infinite. This movie was discovered by Adam and Sarah when they went to a live production of a bad movie podcast Sarah follows. In spite of it having all the vibes of a big budget movie, no one seems to have heard of it, and with good reason.
This film is about a crew of people living who remember all their past lives. Some would like to destroy the world because their weariness at living so long and some want to help the world with all their skills that they have acquired from remembering everything. In spite of both these philosophies, the film is just an action movie with the two sides fighting specifically through Mark Wahlburg on the good guy side and a pretty unrecognizable Chiwetal Ejiofor on the bad guy side. Ejiofor's character has invented a device to destroy the world and Wahlburg has to find and destroy it. That's pretty much it. It is hiding in a very predictable place. Also, the film has no real stakes since they're all kind of immortal.
This film is okay. The premise is presented in the silliest way possible and there are some great moments of hammy acting or insanity, specifically when a motorcycle is driven off a cliff and onto the wing of a plane. Overall, it's probably more worth it if you have professional bad movie podcasters roasting it.
