The fun-loving Feynman and his young bride Arlene, played by Patricia Arquette (True Romance) enjoy their courtship and young married life in New York until Feynman is called away to New Mexico to participate in the Manhattan Project and the development of the hydrogen bomb. Their storybook romance is further complicated when Arlene discovers she is seriously ill, and Feynman must confront not only the morality of his participation in the development of the bomb but the nature of life and death and the love he has for his wife. A nice, small sweet romance that aims low but scores high, Infinity is a quirky but poignant love story and a fine directorial debut. --Robert Lane

    A poignant character driven love story. A date movie basically, which kinda means that this is basically a chick flick, which sucks, bc I hate most of those.

    I know he worked hard on this film as star, director and major editor but it just did not cut it. I , never, believed in the love of the 2.

    What a pity... there is not really anything interesting in this film about Richard Feynman as a scientist. Just a watered-down chick flick. Carry on, nothing much to see here...
