The film stars a mix of Nigerian and international talent including Bimbo Akintola, Danny Glover, Somkele Idhalama and Bimbo Manuel. Set in Nigeria during the 2014 Ebola outbreak, this film focusses on the sacrifices made by the health workers in Lagos to contain the outbreak. Of course there are also zombies, and unethical military leaders played brilliantly by Christopher Eccleston. We see how the world has changed through the eyes of four survivors played by Cillian Murphy ( Peaky Blinders), Naomie Harris, Megan Burns, and Brendan Gleeson. This Danny Boyle film shows the aftermath of the breakdown of society after the release of a highly contagious virus. But he may already be closer to the answers he is seeking than he thinks. The confusion caused by time travel lands him in a mental institution in the past where he encounters a delightfully wacky Brad Pitt. Set 2o years after a deadly plague released by terrorists swept across the planet, Bruce Willis is a prisoner offered an opportunity at freedom if he will go back in time and discover the source of the plague and help stop it. This Terry Gilliam classic looks at how devastating pandemics transform societies. But rather than avoid why not indulge in the fantasy of what could be if the worst actually happens? Scare yourself silly and give yourself some food for thought with these 15 movies about pandemics (not all zombie) that are currently available to stream. I’m not getting paid, but I like to get feedback.Most of us are trying to distract ourselves from the grim details of the coronavirus pandemic, which is practically impossible with all the news coverage.

Overall, the only reason to watch this film is if you want to see some modern day propaganda. There’s the funny sidekick and the reporter love interest and the scene where the hero is stopped by corrupt higher-ups and a dozen other scenes you’ve watched before. This just has a guy with a cool suit fighting a cop in an old-timey hat. At least when Russia made their crazy Avengers rip-off Guardians, it had a were-bear with a machine gun. Most of the plot of this movie is just ripped off from a dozen better American films. It’s even worse because everything that doesn’t involve the odd perspectives of the hero and villain is imminently forgettable. This is the hero who really doesn’t like subversive speech. At the end, it tries to have the Plague Doctor go darker so that you can’t support him, but, again, HE STILL KIND OF HAS A POINT. It’s just a movie that blatantly wants to advocate a point that I cannot possibly think people will like.
While one of his superiors looks out for him, another superior officer literally shows that he’s willing to fabricate evidence or avoid investigation as long as he gets promoted. It also portrays Grom and Dima as among the only non-corrupt people in the police force. I’m not a fan of the idea of killing the corrupt, mostly because I believe in trials and laws, but this movie basically says that there is no actual system to bring these people to justice, then makes the person who tries to change that the bad guy. So, the “bad guys” in the film are people who are A) trying to stop corrupt millionaires who literally get around the law to the point of murder and B) trying to stop the government from cracking down on people bad-mouthing it. In the film’s context, it’s supposed to be a restriction against terrorism, but Sergei is literally talking about expressing dissatisfaction about the government. A literal line in the movie is Grom saying that we have restrictions for a reason.

Sergei, the millionaire, dedicates most of his wealth and time to trying to create a system for free speech on the internet that the Russian government can’t control.
Yeah, this movie literally has the worst case of “bad guy has a point” in almost any story ever.
