Quarantine Review!

[ Review time for the movie Quarantine! ]

Here's a quick trailer of the movie.



For those who want a quick idea of what the movie is, it's basically mix of Cloverfield and 28 Weeks Later. The storyline without giving out too many spoilers is about a group of people stuck in an apartment building. Things go bananas and now they're fighting for their life.
Now for the good! It's phenomenal if you liked either of the movies previously named. The sound and tension of the movie really lets you sink yourself into the atmosphere. This movie has some cool effects done with the body of the undead, dead people. There are some moments in the movie that have that "pop in" effect for a scare. Those were pretty good and anyone easily scared will jump! Let me describe it to you. I saw that trailer and the parts that I knew were coming still had me feeling the tension and suspense on what was yet to come! Now any movie that does that is worth seeing! I also loved how the movie throws out "foreshadowing". It does it slightly that normal viewers will see and put it in back of the mind. That is until the moment you connect the pieces together and jump!
Now for the bad. Like any other movie, it really makes some of the characters feel real and grounded. On the other side of this is the stupidity that you usually get from side/supporting characters. You will be annoyed why character [A] forgot that character [b] and [c] were fucking infected. Along with that, if you weren't a fan of what I like to call "spin the camera and jerk it enough so that the viewer feels sick" camera shots from Cloverfield, you won't like certain parts of this movie. What the movie is trying (I think at least) to do is to make the viewer move their head as if they were in the movie. Sometimes it's basically becomes one giant clusterfuck of a mess.
Besides these top annoyances, you will love this movie! It does what it is trying to do very well (atmosphere and tension) with some side annoyances. If you saw the trailer and was even a tad bit curious, it's a movie for you!
