Editorial reviews

4 stars out of 5 -- "This is Steven Soderbergh at his best delivering a gripping, chilling and powerful movie experience that will have audiences talking (and freaking out)."
Box Office - Pete Hammond (09/05/2011)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] chilling, convincing thriller about a world-ravaging pandemic....Bleakly compelling."
Total Film - Matthew Leyland (11/01/2011)

"The movie spreads its compelling, insidious plot backward and forward, mimicking scientific research..." -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (09/23/2011)

"Director Steven Soderbergh effectively conveys the capriciousness of disease as it seeps into all corners of the global village....Potent and well-paced..."
USA Today - Claudia Puig

3 stars out of 4 -- "[A] realistic, unsensational film about a global epidemic....Soderbergh is skillful at telling the story through the lives of several key characters and the casual interactions of many others."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (09/07/2011)

"As with TRAFFIC, the director expertly choreographs an impressive cast that includes major players....A film that makes the spread of a global pandemic seem more than plausible..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (09/06/2011)

3 stars out of 5 -- "In CONTAGION, Steven Soderbergh applies his intelligent, steely touch to the medical disaster movie."
Uncut - Jonathan Romney (11/01/2011)

"contagion" follows the rapid progress of a lethal airborne virus that kills within days. as the fast moving epidemic grows, the worldwide medical community races to find a cure and control the panic that spreads faster than the virus itself. at the same time, ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart. i thought this was a great movie with an all star lineup. worth the time to watch.

Crummy Movie

 | No, I would not recommend this product.

This movie tried to get too sophisticated and intriguey which resulted in a convoluted, sometimes confusing plot and also some loose ends that were never tied up at the end of the movie.
Matt Damon was not believable as a person who had just lost a spouse and child. The gratuitous graphic gore scene DID NOT add to the movie and was totally unnecessary.
This was a huge disappointment.
