Infectés

Ce n’est pas un navet, mais il ne décolle jamais vraiment. Le jeu des acteurs est correct, mais les scènes tendues et effrayantes sont distillées au compte-gouttes. Et on peut se demander quel est réellement le genre de ce film… (05/09/2011)

Un scénario ennuyeux et sans une seule idée et parfois avec une logique stupide, des personnages médiocres et ennuyeux, une réalisation asexuée. Un film sans piquant, reconstitué à partir de scènes que nous avons vues ailleurs dans des intrigues secondaires. (26/03/2020)

Lightweight testimonial. Stephen King would have been delighted with this movie. I was impressed by the great atmosphere that swings between relaxed enjoyment and absolute despair. The cast is A-grade (Chris Pine rules) and the characters behave nice and realistically and if for a minute somebody behaves humanely, he is deservedly punished. Just one thing bothered me. I would have made the ending a little longer and had the rest of the crew eliminated too. But I suppose people like a happy ending. P.S.: Oh, I see now, Steve really was delighted with it, he even wrote something about it in an article in Entertainment Weekly. (29/11/2009)

Completely different to what I expected and wanted, but pretty interesting nonetheless. Instead of horror or thriller, this is a drama that hides an incredibly high potential and, unfortunately, hides it very well. The intense emotions are scarce and I only felt tension in three scenes, basically, they should have gone either harder or deeper, this is unsatisfactorily half way. Carriers left me with the impression of a sinfully squandered opportunity, but I’m still giving it three stars. It’s good, but it could be a lot better. (24/11/2009)

An interesting antithesis of a typical version of a disaster film - instead of bringing together and restoring ties through a borderline situation, we observe the breakdown of friendship, the disappearance of sexual attraction and the alienation of two brothers (neighbors become menacing neighbors and not vice versa, as is customary in Hollywood). The film is composed as a series of disillusioning encounters that only deepen the feeling of hopelessness. Carriers is similar to Soderbergh's Contagion, but unlike Contagion, Carriers is only average in terms of film quality and is more like a TV movie in terms of the arrangement of some scenes. Nevertheless, the absence of traditional clichés and schemes keeps your attention - also because Chris Pine, as the main (anti) hero, is tolerably unbearable. (23/04/2013)
