Director: Wolfgang Petersen

Starring: Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, Donald Sutherland

Extreme measures are necessary to contain an epidemic of a deadly airborne virus. But how extreme, exactly?

All all-star cast ensure a convincing delivery of this medical disaster film. The suspense is gradually and effectively set-up as we learn more about the virus and its effects. For a short while, the film takes a comical dip somewhere around the middle of the film, but then builds again for an exciting climax. (The failed marriage saved by a disaster cliche is unfortunately present, as well.)
