Outbreak (1995)
6/10
Decent plot but more of a predictable execution!!
9 June 2022
Outbreak is a medical disaster film directed by Wolfgang Petersen. The film stars Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Morgan Freeman, Donald Sutherland, Cuba Gooding Jr., Kevin Spacey and Patrick Dempsey.

A deadly virus carried by a monkey created a havoc in a small American town, few scientists struggle to find the cure.

This film has now undoubtedly got a fresh popularity primarily due to the ongoing pandemic but somewhat is my opinion the film doesn't excites that much maybe because the film is majorly predictable with illogical scenes or situation. There are some scenes that capture the real life scenarios perfectly such as lockdown and people refusing to follow the health guideline and so on but apart from them there is not much exciting in the film.

The acting is good and all the cast did a superb job, the screenplay of the film was majorly predictable and doesn't excites much, the climax of the film ends on happy ending.

Overall a decent film which could've been much better if the director and the screenplay writer would've tried something new but still can be watched once.
