Dante's Inferno
The Dante's Inferno that we saw in class was composed entirely to convey a modernized adaptation of the classic story. The animation was utilized as a simple pictorial aesthetic and in no way met with the standards of a traditional composition, therefore its hard to critique this as you would with any other film. However, with that sort of simplistic visual display being the intent, I believe that the film was very successful in those regards. I am not familiar with the original story, but I thought that this was a successful modernization.

I also am vaguely familiar with Dante's Inferno but I do know the work's basic plot and idea. For me, the movie was just okay. Sure, I had a few laughs at the expense of Fox News but overall the movie was just forgettable. If anything, the movie seemed like a video that I might come across on youtube and then stop watching after a few minutes. My attention was just never captured.
