Synopsis

After a virus of epic proportions overwhelms the planet—with more infected than uninfected—humanity is losing its grip on survival and its only hope is finding a cure and keeping the infected contained. Lauren, a doctor, arrives in Los Angeles with her crack team to lead the hunt for uncontaminated civilian survivors, but nothing can prepare them for the blood-soaked mayhem they witness as they head into the Californian streets where everything is considered a trap.

GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Michael Ledo In what appears to be a mutated Ebola, mosquito carried virus infects the planet apparently even places that don't have mosquitoes. Our production focuses on the aftermath as a large group of highly organized (government?) survivors hunt for others who are uninfected to experiment on them with vaccines. Dr. Laura Chase (Rachel Nichols) from New York joins the LA group primarily because she is from LA and doesn't know if her family is alive or dead.A group of four go out to get survivors from St. Mary's Parrish. They are not allowed to deviate from their path, but that didn't last long. The infected go through 5 stages, the last being a cannibal killer. Gunner (Mekhi Phifer) is the gunner on this trip and wants to know what happened to his wife on the previous rescue attempt. There is enough personal drama to keep us amused when hungry infected humans aren't attacking our foursome in a bus.The film is done from first person vest cameras and many kill scenes looked like a video game. The acting was so-so and the twist while interesting, didn't add much to the story. Not for those who dislike found footage films. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
We luv films Characters so jaw droppingly stupid you want them to die and end their witless existence. The Dr is so annoying and useless I actually started to hate her more as the film progressed. Even when we are told the truth it doesn't make up for how badly others suffered as a consequence of her actions or inaction when it mattered. Trust me you'll hate her too.The actors did their best with what they had to work with. But the result is an embarrassing blot on their careers and the zombie genre in general.
Paul Magne Haakonsen After I saw the trailer for "Pandemic" by sheer luck on YouTube, I just had to track down this movie and get it watched, especially since I am a huge zombie aficionado. And the trailer for 2016's "Pandemic" looked really intense.Well, at least the trailer was intense. The actual movie, meh... It was actually semi-boring, which was somewhat of a disappointment and a slap to the face. I must expect that I had expected a lot more from this movie after having seen that trailer.Certainly there were some good parts to the movie, and those parts had lots of action and a really great and fast pace to it. And that was really what held the movie afloat.This is not a movie that is driven by acting performances or by character development. Actually the characters in "Pandemic" were very mundane and generic, to the point where you didn't really care if they died or survived, and it didn't matter who died and who survived, because they were essentially the same character, just with a different face.The acting in the movie was fair enough, taking into consideration the limitations that the acting talents had to work with in terms of script and direction.The first person view that permeated the movie was a different but not entirely unwelcoming approach to the zombie genre. Sure it has been seen before, but it actually worked out well enough in "Pandemic".A zombie movie needs proper special effects, and honestly, then "Pandemic" was limping here. The special effects and CGI effects were not impressive to be bluntly honest, and that was sort of holding the movie back in a way.Putting the cards on the table, then I have to say that "Pandemic" was an adequate movie in terms of being entertaining. But it was far from being an impressive movie addition in the zombie genre.
Luxurious It is inspiring to how much this movie fails. It had a bit of everything bad in it. Despite that, I can't call this the worst movie I've seen (trust me it can get worse, try Bigfoot vs Zombies). Unlikable CharactersLauren: The worst character in a movie full of unlikable characters. At first she appears to be a doctor that's not cut for the field. Then she's revealed to be a liar who's purpose was to save her family. I understand it, but she's still a selfish and horrible character. You got your whole team killed just to save your daughter. Like I said, I understand it, but your daughter does not warrant your whole team being killed along with potential people that you can't treat.Wheeler: you know the annoying white guy with a bad mouth. That's this guy. Plus he's lazy to boot. He didn't want to actually do his job, while simultaneously critiquing others. Sad thing is, I actually LIKE his character type. They generally provide the comedy, but I can't laugh at his jokes when he's just as useless as the others. Though he does come through in the end with his driving and hot wiring skills.Dennis: She was useful at first, but then she got annoying. Her job is to kill the infected people along with Gunner. She also knows a bit about healing and using the first aid kit. She went to a school where they had to check for survivors, and got depressed that they killed an infected woman with a child (either stillborn or fake). Um? You kill zombies all day and everyday, what makes her different (blonde white woman)?Gunner: My favorite of all characters. He got his instructions, and followed them. I also understood his frustration with Lauren because she couldn't do the one job she was assigned to do, and she couldn't even defend herself. Come on Lauren. Terrible PlotWoman basically lied and got her teammates, and potential other people who will need a doctor, killed to save her daughter. Weird Camera anglesWhat's with this first person stuff? I feel like I'm watching someone play Call of Duty: Zombie mode, instead of a movie. Just a bad movie all around. Unlikable characters, including main character, weird camera angles and POVs, and a terrible plot. Skip this one.
