Infinity

About This Movie

Infinity (1998) is this intriguing piece from Standard Films that feels like a deep dive into existential themes, exploring the concept of time and choices. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it kind of adds to the unsettling atmosphere that the film creates. There’s something about the practical effects that feels raw and tangible, unlike the CGI-heavy stuff we see today. Performances are earnest and kind of haunting, drawing you into its meditative moments. It’s distinct in how it handles its narrative, almost like the filmmakers were more interested in the philosophical questions than traditional storytelling.

Infinity has a bit of a spotty release history, which makes it a bit tricky to track down, especially in decent condition. The film hasn't seen much in the way of reissues, so collectors often find it hard to come by. There’s a certain niche interest around it, especially for those who appreciate films that dabble in philosophical concepts rather than straightforward narratives. Overall, it attracts a small but dedicated following among enthusiasts of lesser-known cinema.
