Werner Herzog's latest documentary is a spellbinding visual and sensory experience. Teaming up with volcanologist Clive Oppenheimer, the pair embark on an epic journey that takes them around the world - filming volcanoes from an archipelago in the South Pacific all the way to Indonesia, Ethiopia, Iceland, and North Korea. In their globe-trotting exploration of volcanoes, both active and dormant, they discover fascinating myths and belief systems associated with these natural wonders. A visual tour de force, INTO THE INFERNO is a meditative and revelatory film unlike any other. (Hamptons International Film Festival)

Into the Inferno is a bizarre combination of fascinating shots of lava and volcanic eruptions with great sound and religious and political-ideological dialogue scenes with people from the communities and cultures living near them, which though occasionally interesting, are mostly boring and have nothing to do with volcanoes. And the latter type of scenes take up 80% of the runtime.
