"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.

Some shots of this was filmed in the abandoned hospital I was born in. Anyway, this was bland imo. I didn't like it.

Great film, but I am also a fanboy of Steven Soderbergh so I may be a bit biased here.

An absolutely incredible movie - what starts off as something kind of minor, ends up as a full-blown situation.

Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lawrence Fishburne and Kate Winslet are totally incredible.

And it's heartbreaking too.

since she was one of my three favorites. (cry) Anyway, watching this now (my third time seeing it) and there's really nothing bland about it. It's one of the best of 2011 in my opinion. Hell, I even like the musical score (that sounds almost too much like the score of the Pandemic games lol.

Intriguingly (is that a word?), like some of the natural disaster type movies like Deep Impact, Armageddon, etc, the possibility of something like this happening for real actually scares the white hot jibber jabbers out of me. I mean, there are real tsunamis. But what is a real airborne Ebola type situation could happen? To be honest, I doubt it, but...

Yeah stuff like this freaks me out bigtime since dying of an incurable illness like the one featured here is one of my alltime biggest fears. D:

And I love Deep Impact<3.

Same! I read that it was inspired by an actual illness that was partially triggered by deforestation. It's amazing how much thought went into this movie; from the things lifted from actual cases to the CDC workers who actually took part in the making of the film and instructing the cast (especially Kate Winslet).
