cheaply made TV knock off ....
20 April 2024
.....which depicts a connection between deep state and a pharmaceutical company to engineer then release a pathogen this time an haemorrhaging killer virus in huge public places in US and then enforce a lockdown; vaccinate the population and do a "financial" killing thereof

well well well this is Ludlum-ish fiction (actually fake Ludlum as written by Gayle Lynds in the vein of ) from 2005 turned into this filmic joke kind of 12 points of IQ required to attend made in 2006 14 years before the Bats of Wuhan (a successful series from 2020/21).... yikes some will scream blueprint predictive programming 🙂🙃😉 some will scream look deep state and billionaire companies cook up a scam the likes of which....

But they wouldn't would they? For profit? AS if .... it has to be fiction

Of course since the piece is from 2005/6 it is replete with tear-a-wrists from a different faith oh bad bad folks who speak in a foreign language; for the dimmest amongst the dimmest whenever Arabic or Dari and Pashto it says "speaking in a foreign language" Dear heard about subtitles; but no; better to demonize they speak a FOREIGN language not like us dodgy people clothes food etc etc .... boohoo

THis is the worst common denominator FEAR-mongering big network series B-team actors D-team script and storyline full of holes and chasms frankly

AND YET AND YET it is entertaining and NEVER boring. Ludlum-related pieces had a knack for action for rolling action and some of it transpires here even with the cost-cutting decisions visibly made at every turn .... so it has a smidgeon of the energy of the Jason Bourne trilogy but watered down and turned into a semi-travesty

Would still watch it if you like Ludlum-inspired action deep state and big pharma scam stories .... none of the acting is stellar it is workaday the dialogues are borderline special needs the locations are mostly good and filmed decently Berlin Paris Afghanistan here is probably Morocco but it flies ok. Oh yes most of the end is clownish and even more lowbrow than the rest but again AND YET still fun ......
