Inferno movie quotes bring the 2013 Dan Brown novel of the same name to life in a feature film. Directed by Ron Howard, David Koepp adapted the book into a screenplay, which follows a professor and doctor who fight to stop an extinction-level event. Inferno opened in theaters on October 28, 2016.
In Inferno, Professor Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) wakes with little memory of the preceding days and with visions of an alternate reality. He finds a device in his pocket which projects an image of Dante's Inferno. Along with Dr. Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones), Langdon realizes that the painting has been altered from the original and equates that to a prophecy that a virus will wipe out the world's population.
Further investigation leads the pair to believe scientist Bertrand Zobrist (Ben Foster) invented Inferno as his way to save humanity. Zobrist believes that without a dramatic decrease in the population now, all of humanity will be extinct in 100 years. While everyone agrees that population control is important, Dr. Brooks and Professor Langdon are not going to allow Inferno to happen, and must race around Europe over 48 hours in order to stop it.
Inferno movie quotes give a look into the thriller, just like other movie quotes do for fall 2016 films such as Keeping Up with the Joneses, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, The Accountant, and Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life.
Inferno Movie Quotes,
You Are Humanity's Final Hope
Bertrand Zobrist: There is a switch. If you throw it, half the people on earth will die. But if you don't, in 100 years, the human race will be extinct. I left you a path, the hardest one yet. Only you can finish it. You are humanity's final hope.
Bertrand Zobrist explains Inferno in this Inferno movie quote. He describes it as the only way to save humanity, which, of course, involves killing off half the population right now.
48 Hours to Prevent an Extinction-Level Event
Robert Langdon: If this plague is real
Elizabeth Sinskey: Then we only have 48 hours to prevent an extinction-level event.
Robert Langdon: I will do everything I can to find it.
Everyone realizes that they are fighting against the clock to stop the plague, should it be real. They seem to be pretty determined to stop something that they're not even sure is legit.
Professor, You're Having Visions
Harry Sims: Professor, you are having visions, aren't you? The people behind this will do anything to protect the truth. You have no idea what you are capable of.
Consortium head Harry Sims knows that Professor Langdon isn't exactly himself. Langdon's mind has been altered by those behind Inferno, and that's just a small portion of what those responsible will do to make this plan succeed.
I Need Access to the Dante Mask
Robert Langdon: I need access to the Dante mask.
Museum Guard: The Dante mask is no longer here. It was stolen. Here's the security footage.
Elizabeth Sinskey: Professor, that looks like you.
...
Robert Langdon: I have no memory of taking that mask.
Dr. Sienna Brooks: You did. I just saw you.
In these Inferno movie quotes, Professor Langdon learns that Dante's mask is not in a Florence museum as it should be, rather has been stolen. It only gets worse when they realize security footage shows Langdon stealing the priceless item.
Everything is Out of Focus
Robert Langdon: I want to know what I'm involved with.
Dr. Sienna Brooks: What was someone shooting at you?
Robert Langdon: Everything is out of focus.
At this point, Professor Langdon and Dr. Brooks have more questions than answers. To say that they're a bit confused in these Inferno movie quotes might be an understatement.
It's Dante's Inferno
Dr. Sienna Brooks: It's Dante's Inferno.
Robert Langdon: Dante defined our modern conception of hell 700 years ago, but these circles of hell have been rearranged. Why Dante? Why this map of hell? Dante! Dante's death mask! Yes! We've got to get to Florence.
Professor Langdon and Dr. Brooks realize that the image they see projected from a handheld device is Dante's inferno. This leads them to Dante's death mask and a trip to Florence.
Inferno is the Cure
Bertrand Zobrist: Our population is spiraling out of control. Inferno is the cure.
...
Robert Langdon: They're going to wipe out half the world's population unless we find this virus. They left a trail.
Dr. Sienna Brooks: Human lives are at stake. If the plague exists, you know what governments will do to get it.
Bertrand Zobrist lays out the Inferno plan to control the population by killing off half of everyone. This does not sound like something Dr. Brooks and Professor Langdon want to happen, and they vow to fight against it in these Inferno movie quotes.
Someone Created a Plague
Robert Langdon: This is what I have been seeing. Look, look, this is not on the original painting.
Dr. Sienna Brooks: Here's another one. Prophecy.
Robert Langdon: Oh my god, Dante's Inferno isn't fiction. It's a prophecy. Someone created a plague.
Dr. Brooks and Professor Langdon notice that the Inferno painting has been altered in these Inferno movie quotes. The additions spell our prophecy, which somehow leads them to believe someone has created a plague.
Professor Langdon, We Need Your Help
Christoph Bouchard: It appears you are out of options. Tell me about the threat that is Inferno.
...
Christoph Bouchard: Professor Langdon, we need your help. Three days ago, a man killed himself. We think he was part of something much bigger. There was a package in his pocket.
Robert Langdon: And what was in it?
After scientist Bertrand Zobrist jumps to his death in front of Christoph Bouchard, Bouchard approaches Professor Robert Langdon asking for help in these Inferno movie quotes. As Bouchard explains in these Inferno movie quotes, this was one small piece to a massive and deadly plot.
