Contagion (2011)

[meth head]

I will most definately go see this, it is a film we have seen over and over but it looks good enough to me

 

[Maglor]

Will definitely see this.

I'm not sure I'll be able to watch this and Outbreak is the reason why. These films heighten my already budding Howard Hughes outlook in life.

Looks like teemu's got you beat.

another propaganda movie to get the public to take their Mercury filled,Immune destroying Flu Shot???? probably

Still don't know what to think about this - it was believable and pretty straightforward - there are so many characters that you can't get invested into any one of them, although we're probably supposed to identify with Matt Damon. They do a good job of showing the different aspects of what a disaster like this would result in - the opportunist, the desperate, the medical heroes, the everyman, etc.

With the population growth on the Earth we'll need a culling of the population every few 100 years. This kind of thing is just a matter of time.

Wow, didn't realize you are such a nihilist Dave.

It'd be nice if there was a law that would only allow couples to have one kid.. Since we're so incredibly overpopulated.

Yes, it's called China.

Yep there's a one kid policy in effect in China and and now there are way too many males.

Just saw it tonight with the wife and my son. We liked it alot. Great movie.

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Just saw it and liked it.

I'm always struck by the animialistic behavior and the devolving nature of the human species when faced with crisis.

Saw it today, it was alright. I didn't really like following all these different characters and I thought the soundtrack didn't match the tone of the film, but I enjoyed it.

Spotted a bunch of TDK and TDKR characters/actors in it.

 

[P1X4R]

It was ok, nothing spectacular.

i agree. it was just ok. i liked the "Day 1" ending though.

 

[meth head]

I really really enjoyed this film.

This is certainly my favourite of all the global epidemic genre type films that have been made so far.

I really enjoyed following the characters and their specific plight in trying to fight this deadly virus.

The only character I found confusing was Jude Laws. I found his character slightly vague in his meaning. His conspiracy theories lacked substance. I wasn't sure if he was suggesting that drug companies encourage viruses?
