Title: Contagion

Anyone else see this? Actually thought it was a well done flick. Pretty cool and not too over the top.

Also a huge ensemble cast and of course Gwyneth Paltrow's sweet, sweet death in the first few scenes.

This alone makes this movie extremely appealing.

I haven't seen it and it's already in my Top 10 for 2012.

SPOILERS (maybe)
















I agree on Paltrow's death.  I thought the movie was fairly well done, too.  I liked that it was too crazy and that it did justice to the crumbling sanity of society as the days under the outbreak went on.  The only real thing that was kind of "eh, really?" about it all was that Matt Damon was immune.  However, I guess we wouldn't have a script without that part.
