PodBill Just what I expected

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

StyleSk8r 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.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

merceplucas Carriers is no boundary-pusher. It's not the most unique concept, its writing isn't stellar, its young adult actors aren't prodigies, its soundtrack won't move you, and the cinematography isn't outrageous. It's simply decent. After watching it my main thought was "at least it wasn't another zombie movie." If you're tired of summer blockbusters (and I mean, who wouldn't be?) throw this on to kill an hour or two.

Mikelikesnotlikes Carriers is nothing special but it would make a reasonable addition to the apocalypse shelf of your collection. It fits in the psychological/drama side of the genre and explores how two young couples deal with losing everything in the world they know.I found the premise and plot progression basic and fairly realistic. I don't know if people who have been exposed to the horrors of a pandemic would be as stable as these 4 acted, but the young are nothing if not resilient.Possibly the hardest thing to believe was Brian ditching Bobby almost on the spur of the moment when they find out she is infected. I felt it could have been portrayed differently. I get that they are all adjusting to abnormal societal expectations and responses, but to heartlessly ditch someone who you've shared your mind and body with would be very difficult.Overall it's a pretty good, honest movie with just enough action to keep it moving. Be warned though, it is very slow.

BA_Harrison A highly contagious virus has wiped out the majority of the human race. Four survivors—Brian (Chris Pine), his girlfriend Bobby (Piper Perabo), his younger brother Danny (Lou Pucci), and Kate (Emily VanCamp)—attempt to get to the coast where they hope to ride out the pandemic at the deserted beach-side hotel where the brothers spent their holidays as kids.I love apocalyptic horror films that deal with virulent diseases wiping out humanity, the fear factor heightened by the very real possibility of such an occurrence. Carriers uses such a scary set-up, but fails to capitalise on its potential with a weak script that goes nowhere over the course of its 84 minutes. The photogenic-but-bland characters travel to their destination, encountering a few predictable obstacles on the way, but there is nothing substantial to grip the viewer.

Colorful and appropriate cinematography by Benoît Debie . Stirring and adequate musical score by Peter Nashel . Good direction by Pastor Brothers who do have its thrilling moments , most of them in the first half , though the second half being mostly dramatic and tragic . The motion picture was compellingly realized by David and Alex Pastor . They offer us an intelligent flick of the apocalyptic world movie, intimate and committed . This one resulted to be their first film and David and Alex Pastor Brothers have directed in 2013 ,¨The Last days¨ , with Quim Gutierrez , Jose Coronado , Marta Etura ; also dealing with a strange virus in which humanity develops an irrational fear of open that causes instant death , as the world population is trapped inside buildings and Barcelona descends into chaos . ¨Carriers¨ rating : Better than average . Well worth watching .
