Virus themed movies tend to follow the same formula, and for that reason I always struggle to enjoy them as I already know exactly how it's going to play out.
With an all star cast including Tiffani Thiessen, French Stewart, Faye Dunaway, Eric Roberts to name just a few they pull out all the stops and a couple give career best performances.
Telling the story of a new virus outbreak and how it breaks containment and spreads through Los Angeles like wildfire.
Standing at almost three hours in length nobody can say the movie isn't thorough. With fantastic character development, decent writing and a competent cast this rises above most films of this sub genre.
Thiessen surprisingly delivers like I've never seen her do so before and even Roberts is less hammy than usual.
I enjoyed this, for all it's flaws it's a well made film.
The Good:
Cast do a great job
Well written
Movie length really helps no end
The Bad:
A lot of it you'll have seen before
Spano is still stupidly unlikeable
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Gun toting right wing militia types doing stupid things?! LIES!
