Viewing Notes

Contagion is a really well done medical thriller/drama; tightly scripted and shot, with an excellent ensemble cast. I expect people may be led to believe this has a lot more ‘end-of-the-world’ action in it than it does, but the lack thereof isn’t a negative. This feels to me what a real virus outbreak would be like: and it’s frightening.

The best role of the movie is Kate Winslet’s. She does a great job.
