(September 24, 2011)

Saw it earlier today (September 24, 2011), I think this movie is well created from writers, scripts, plots, sets down to casting, everything was perfect but there are some parts that I want to skip because its kinda annoying and pretty boring. Still I’m recommending this movie to everyone. ”Don’t talk to anyone. Don’t touch anyone.“An action-thriller centered on the threat posed by a deadly disease and an international team of doctors contracted by the CDC to deal with the outbreak. When one thinks of the most nightmarish scenarios that can happen to mankind, whether it’s terrorism, earthquake, hurricane or what have you, a pandemic is the most scary of all. It’s unpredictable and deadly and before you know it, everyone you care about is dead and society collapses as an end result to the deadly outbreak.What Contagion does is present to the audience how shockingly real this could happen in real life and it’s plausibility is what really gets to you the most. It’s a situation that almost immediately fills you with dread and hopelessness as countless lives are lost by the deadly biological onslaught of one of the dark aspects of nature. A tale of man versus nature, Contagion is packed with thrilling suspense, character dynamics (though admittedly a bit thin) and an intelligent and well-written plot. What really got to me is how real this movie makes an outbreak of a deadly disease so convincing and compelling. It portrays both the good and sadly true, dark aspects of human nature as some are in competition for the spotlight of being the first to attempt to rid the disease, while some only want it for taking care of loved ones in places few and far between. Despite being an action thriller, it felt like an independent film with an art house/quasi mainstream feel. Very unique that this film took that approach while also giving it oodles of substance on which to think and reflect on the various issues that are presented. It gives enough, but also lets the audience figure out things on there on without being beaten over the head with information that viewers already know well about. It’s smartly directed and well-written and has a plot that’s so real that you can literally feel it. There are other films that have story elements about diseases, but this one takes the cake out of them all that will have you thinking for a long time after the credits roll.

Love,
