Icy cool thriller
Well this seems to have been panned by the critics. Seems a few got the wrong idea and thought this was going to be like The Thing not sure why? ok it's no oscar winner, but it has an original setting for a whodunit thriller. Some of the actions scenes are hard to make out but that was the effect they went for. Overall it's not that bad, it has a twist or two and some action scenes to satisfy most people.

I went into this movie, just hoping it'd make me laugh... I laughed once. Maybe I'm just not a Kate McKinnon fan, but her character was annoying, and there was little to no depth there. I was also not buying into the fact that McKinnon and Kunis' characters were 30 years old, at first I thought it was a joke, but it wasn't. Overall, it was a bloated mess that went on for way too long. At least Sam Heughan was there for eye candy.

The science!
Didn't realise this was going to become non-fiction

I used to love this film as I like the fact the science was quite good. I like Kate Winslet's character and her difficulties in attempting to explain the severity of the situation to politicians. I like the ending where it shows how the virus jumped to humans. I found that I wanted the punch Jude Law throughout the film but am glad that he at least wasn't completely able to get away with it.
