Tyson D. @Spudsprout 2d (Overall Rating: 3.83/5) (Very Good) --- (Cinematography/Atmosphere: 3.5/5) The atmosphere was extremely believable, this was not visually ground breaking but was good enough. --- (Storyline/Plot: 4.5/5) The story told from start to finish was well paced and believable. It is scary the similarities that we saw almost a decade later with our own pandemic. --- (Acting: 4/5) Well acted movie in many regards. No real standout performances but just solid all around. --- (Character Quality: 4/5) Every character was believable and well written. Every character had their own self motivations for doing what they did. --- (Entertainment Value: 3/5) Not meant to be an exciting film and there were definitely slow parts that were required to set up tension. Perfect length for what it was. --- (Expectations vs. Reality: 4/5) I had not seen this since covid, the similarities are very eerie. It is wild how relevant this movie has remained since releasing. See more Henry D @Henry_Domke 5d It is remarkable how closely Contagion anticipated aspects of the COVID pandemic a decade later. Apart from the rather absurd kidnapping subplot, it felt believable throughout. The film is highly informative without becoming didactic, and it remained enjoyable and surprisingly fresh on this, our third viewing. The costumes and makeup were realistic. The music was mostly incidental, and the cinematography was competent rather than stylish, but the film was effective based on the fine acting and strong story.

Depicted cleverly and predicted the pandemic almost to a tee. Watching this post-Coronavirus is an interesting experience and perhaps insightful into human nature. At times, I was rather bored. It was cut with clinical precision, but kind of felt like a montage form a documentary. Matt Damon excelled in his role, as per usual. Overall, a pleasant viewing for anyone looking for a hyperrealistic movie with the essence of a zombie-movie without the zombies. See more Todor Y @Phantom961 Apr 21 A decent movie, but not that interesting. See more Ian S @RT48225084 Jan 5 One of Soderbergh's best movies and very prescient predicting a future pandemic. Well acted with a good cast. Extra disturbing watching it again post the Covid outbreak. See more Read all reviews
