Contagian is incredible conflicting.
On one hand its a pretty good look into a world that doesn't know how to handle such a viruse and the outbreak it causes BUT its mixed with (aside from one sweet storyline with matt damon and his daughter) incredibly dull characters.
I mean sure the performances are good but....man idk.

this was not the worst thing ever but its extremely mediocre in its character work and especially how it looks.
this film looks atrocious with its bright lighting, it ruins almsot every single scene in this film.
other then that, i don't really enjoy nor hate any character, its all just middle of the road.
im kinda dissapointed by sodenbergh because so far he's only shown to be a C TIER director.
i liked some parts more about this then the first part but honestly it kinda makes me apreciate the style the first part has, the black and white seqeunces.
now i think this second part does have things thats better then the first part like i think che and his man are more interesting to follow at parts but overral im not totally with these films but i also kinda like em if that makes sense
i don't know allot about the real life che but this film is an interesting watch but ultimately it doesn't fully land.
maybe i need to read some of his life on...idk wikipedia.
i like che himself, benicio del toro has charisma and i like him as an actor.
i think this film is well shot even if some shots look dull and i love the locations they shot the film on.
it is a good war film but one i don't fully understand yet.edit: part 2 was much more the same but as i watched it, i came to realize that this one has more style with like the black and white seqeunces and narration
Not as good as the previous two films but then again i loved the first two films.
I think this doesn't stand out as much, twelve had its gimmick off making its cast smaller and smaller.
But with that said this is still a great film.
A little to slow allot of the times but it still kinda hits like a brick.
It didn't meet my expectations, i think i set them to high but its a great film either way.
Idk what this was but good for you steven, good for you.
don cheadle might have the greatest accent in this trilogy.
all hail the cheadle man.
anyways, i loved this film, everything is kept in tact.
the score is great, the characters and the dynamics are all super fun and dare i say the character interactions are even better then in the first film and the film while not as great looking as the first film still looks vibrant with all the places they got to.
i haven't seen the film made by andrei tortokovsky but i think this is a solid film.
clooney's character was really fun to follow but the other sidecharacters aren't really that good.
i really love how the film looks like most of sodenbergh's 2000s work.
i haven't watched allot of george clooney films but i have seen more clooney this week then in my entire life.
i fucking hated this, like its a good enough idea but its hollow as shit and it has litteraly not an ounce of substance to it.
the only little thing that was funny in this film is that one character is called nothing but hitler.
while ocean eleven doesn't provide allot for much of the sidecharacters roped into this plan, they all have at least 1 moment to shine.
the cast is great and the film looks amazing.
i love sodenbergh's direction here, its his best work as a director in my opinion, the cinematography, cast and writing are firing on all cilinders.
one of THE heist films.
also the poster looks like that one big bang theory image.edit:HOLY SHIT THE SOUNDTRACK IS ABSOLUTE FIRE
This film for half of its runtime looks gorgeous and amazing, the other half is the mexican piss filter from breaking bad but 10× times worse.
The characters could've had more development but the multiple stories actually hooked me.
They are really fun to follow, this film is not an acting powerhouse but everyone gives a good performance.
