“Inferno Skyscaper Escape” (** out of four) was a conventional disaster action thriller about two teenagers (Isaac Rouse and Riley Jackson) who are caught in a deadly fire on the 20th floor of a towering skyscraper while their parents (Claire Forlani and Jamie Bamber) are on the 60th floor and have to make it down to help them survive and help them all make it out alive. Slickly done and features enough action and visual effects to make it watchable but this is otherwise an all-too-obvious retelling of 2018’s “Skyscaper” which in itself was a retelling of both “The Towering Inferno” and “Die Hard.”
