a i sit down to watch contagion and i hop that the movie wasn not go to be a complete and utter waste of my time . my hope be not only dashed and but they be also horrifically bludgeon to death by a blunt club . i find the acting to be quite over dramatic and at some point force . their performance be about as novice a a 13 year old boy try to remove his girlfriend bra . i be actually be very kind in my criticism . i find that when a movie be poorly write no manner of great act can save it and not that there be any great acting in contagion . the writing and dialogue be stilted and hackneyed . this movie explain why the writer hasn not do anything after write it . there be no believability in the storyline at some point . there be more hole in the storyline than on a small town main street . there be no connection or storyline between the climax of the movie and the denouement . it be like they have be run out of money around the end so they have to quickly end the movie . the science in the movie be deplorable . i believe that if your go to write a movie involve science that you should at least get information from a reliable source to back your writing . i know that not all movie be 100 % scientifically correct and but at least make an actual attempt to be somewhat realistic . like how the intelligent and and of course and beautiful virus doctor take the die nurse locket to give to the nurse daughter and and she do not even disinfect it or keep it in the quaranteed area . i advise that no one should ever view this movie again and because it be an insult to cinema and all we hold dear about movie . i give this movie a f minus ( which be say a lot for the movie ) . any movie that need an overly precocious and mischievous child actor ( how nauseatingly hollywood ) to make people warm up to the movie should never be see . alison h .
