A pretty good virus thriller, 6 December 2003
7/10
Author: Grann-Bach (Grann-Bach@jubii.dk) from Denmark

This movie is thoroughly exciting, if not much else, and it has a good sense of humor. It was tense throughout it's entire run time. Pretty much none of the actors are big names, but they give believable performances, pretty much every one of them. I honestly didn't expect much from this movie, but it surprised me, as it was actually pretty good. I haven't seen a lot of the other virus thrillers, so the genre is new to me; however, I think this was a pretty good movie of that genre. The whole plot was pretty good, apart from the somewhat anticlimactic ending, that just seemed pretty far fetched, but hey, not all movies end the way you want them to. I liked most of the main characters, the wisecracking president, the intelligent doctor, both of the terrorists, all were interesting characters, and they were all pretty well developed. I think most people who enjoy thrillers, and especially fans of virus thrillers, will enjoy this. While not featuring big famous actors, it's pretty good nonetheless. 7/10
