The Worst Film Ever
BootDigest
Such a frustrating disappointment

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Well.. If this film is good for anything. It's making you want to drink the chemicals under the sink.
There is quite literally a couple scenes where the main actors are on screen, there is dialogue being said.. and there mouths are not moving... In Once scene, game of science chick is hugging/kissing the back of Junior who. and they're dubbing over this action with her saying some garbage melodrama dialogue. here mouth clearly busy mashed up against his back in some sort of kiss face mush and not talking.
Im not kidding, ive never noticed so clearly in any film a consistent progression from starting mediocre, to the middle being b-grade, to getting down to neil brine levels by the end of it. Was it done on purpose? Not sure. What im sure of is Stanly tucci needs to fire his agent.

After an unprecedented global pandemic turns the majority of humankind into violent "Infected," a man gifted with the ability to speak the Infected's new language leads the last survivors on a hunt for Patient Zero and a cure. Zombie movies have become so cliched and stupid over the years that this newest entry into the genre doesn't change much either since it's badly written and just boring and stupid as it is plus i don't get how A-list names such as Natalie Dormer, Matt Smith and Stanley Tucci agreed to appear into this colossal mess of a film. (0/10)

After a lifetime watching sci-fi movies I am bemused by some of the criticism that people heap on movies like this. It's a sci-fi "B" movie, for god's sake. What were you expecting? Movies like this are meant to entertain, amuse, make you jump a few times, and toss out some ideas that might make you think a bit. That's what sci-fi "B" movies do. Expecting much more than that is just setting yourself up for disappointment.Having said that, this is objectively not a great movie. It has a really muddled story and a weak ending. However, it has some decent, at times even good, acting as well as a decent idea that the movie is built around. The writers were clearly trying to find something new to do in a genre that is about played out and they get some points for that. Plus the movie has good production values, sets, costuming, and some name actors. So, if you are a sci-fi fan and want some light entertainment for 90 minutes this is an "OK" option. If every movie you watch has to be "great" or you are going to whine about being robbed of 90 minutes of your life, then you should give this a pass.************************ Spoiler Section **************This is not a "zombie" virus movie and the infected are not "undead". In spirit this movie is much more like 28 Days Later in terms of the "look and feel" of the virus and the infected. Points for the writers for making the virus a variant of rabies. There was a Nat Geo special that was done after "Walking Dead" hit that tried to lay out a possible "plausible" zombie plague scenario. It used a "weaponized super rabies" as the most scientifically possible scenario so someone did their homework.That being said, the speed of the infection taking hold is (like it was in 28 Days Later) ridiculous. No virus is going to hit your bloodstream and then turn you into a hyper-aggressive homicidal maniac in seconds. So, minus points for perpetuating this ridiculous meme of "instant infection" no matter how useful it is for an outbreak movie.The idea of having an asymptomatic carrier be the hero of the story and be able to interact with the infected was a cool twist. Although if you saw the SyFy series "Z Nation" your first thought might have been, "OK he's just like Murphy". Which is one of the weaknesses of this movie. Almost everything in it will remind you of some other movie or series in this genre that has come out since 2000 or, even going further back to the grand daddy of the genre, the 1954 book "I Am Legend" by Richard Matheson. There isn't really anything in this movie that feels fresh or new.That being said, the interaction between our hero and the "King Zombie" played by Stanley Tucci is well done and a decent plot twist. Suddenly the viewer realizes that this is not going to be a post-apocalyptic road trip movie to find the "patient zero" unicorn. This is a much darker movie about the last vestiges of civilization being overrun by the barbarism and chaos that the infected symbolize. You thought you were watching an action, adventure, thriller movie but you were really watching a last stand movie the whole time. Surprise! That's the best part of the movie. The rest of it, while decently done, is muddled and confused. One of the other reviewers noted that the movie felt like a failed series pilot and I agree. It makes me think that the writers were TV writers who cobbled together a screenplay. They had some decent ideas but they didn't know how to hone them into a tight movie. So, in conclusion. If you like Outbreak or Apocalypse movies this one isn't bad. It has it's flaws but I found it entertaining and it had a few thought provoking moments. Put it in your "watch when nothing else is on" pile and you won't be disappointed.
