Pandemic

This has got to be one of the worst movie I have ever seen, stay away from this and don't even bother watching. Everything about this film was stupid and absurd, and they try to take this in a serious direction but fails miserably. It also has these drive scenes which is pointless and doesn't add anything to the movie, and it takes forever for it to end with it's lame music playing in the background. The ending was sort of satisfying, but that just cause the acting is so bad in this you just don't care for any of the characters especially the female protagonist. She tries to act like a tough chick that don't take crap from anyone, but she just comes across as being annoying, lame and just plain stupid. Some crazy critics who likes to nit pick everything in a movie might enjoy this film since there is tons of flaws or just will end up getting a head ache.

1/10

I just finished watching this movie and really wished I would have rented a different one. If you even look at the cover of the movie at your local rental store then you just wasted your time. I strongly discourage anyone renting and especially buying this low budget film. If you look at the pictures on the front and back cover, you'll notice it does not match ANY scene in the movie. It's definitely a misguided catch as to how the movie is going to turn out. This movie was shot in 12 days and from listing to the dialog it was written in 10. Crew members were asked to play characters in the movie because of the $200,000 low budget.

This really isn't Phoenix, Arizona but Buckeye. Arizona 30 miles from Phoenix. Just curious why this movie was made. Want more information on why that filming location and why Phoenix is listed as the filming location. I ate at the restaurant not to long ago and it has changed hands but the outside is still the same. After she leaves the coroners office after seeing the coroners body the sign reflecting in her mirror says Buckeye. How it compares to some of what is going on around the world sends chills down my spine.

Although it is slow starting and some of the dramatic effects are a little cheesy I still liked this movie after trying to watch it before and turning it off.

This is the movie that puts the cheese into cheezy. The premise of the movie is that the military has quarantined a county in New Mexico because of some deadly outbreak. That is a good premise to begin with, but there are a few problems. The first one are the uniforms worn by the military. The uniforms are completely unrealistic. There is no "U.S. ARMY" name tape on the uniforms. The soldiers have rank on their uniforms, but no rank on their caps. There is no unit insignia anywhere in sight. Soldiers are wearing black boots with ACU uniforms. I could go on and on about the mistakes on the uniforms. The second problem would be in the quarantine of an entire county. Do you have any idea how many small roads leave a given New Mexico county? You would have to post half the U.S. Army in New Mexico to keep residents from leaving a county. Finally there are large parts of the movie where nothing goes on, so they just show the female star driving around and play music. Avoid this movie at all costs.

I saw Pandemic at the store and instantly though to myself Zombies!! I was wrong this film focuses on the relationship between the small town mainly a small group of characters in this small town and the Government during a Quarantine. This is not a horror film it is more of a Sci-Fi B movie thriller and a pretty good one. The acting is good all the performers were good except maybe two of the Army Soldiers in the background who would only have a line or two. There were not many special effects but the effects they did have were done really well. I really liked the ending of this movie it gave the film so much more depth and had me thinking about the film after it was over. I can only give it a 5 though if you are a fan of the genre or really interested check it out otherwise not much will be missed, for most of this has already been done before and better.
