impressions about a product that you mislead and a film by its plot might think that you will not like at all, it actually be a very good speaker in a certain subject, Carriers is an example, in my case, this situation is palpable before giving a chance had the impression that I was going to run into a Bodra opportunist who only wanted to exploit fear of persons, greatly strengthened lately by a deadly pandemic H1N1, but in the end the intentions were the other way, and it turns out that carriers is actually a pretty good job, a human drama, with some tints of terror that reaches to be highly recommended.
The plot is about four survivors of a deadly epidemic that kills within days to people, and all they have to go in a very hostile world where survivors struggle to survive as if they were real animals, and each person is a threat to others.
English directors Alex and David Pastor did a very good job of adapting this story on the big screen, without much visual artifice, where and sets the camera techniques are used only to service history, one inadvertently failed to show much bombast.
The music is pretty accurate, though in truth goes a bit unnoticed, well, on the other hand I think what you want with this film is to stop all these technicalities a bit in the background, to concentrate all film on the strength and intensity of history that does not is anything wrong but here is one of the problems (personal and based purely egocentric) of the film, is that I have to admit that he likes me "packages" I mean? I've always had a soft spot and paid special attention to all that kind of extras that make the film more interesting technically and aesthetically (describe as photography, beautiful drawings, music, aesthetics, etc ...)
The atmosphere is very well made achieving transmit all this bleak environment where is the land, Which reminds me of another genre of horror, in short carriers could be described as a movie with the typical context of a zombie movie ... but no zombies!
It's nice to see characters who although they can be a little cliché in his nature, and decisions made not in fact are all wizened, very real and noticeable in certain decisions we can identify with them, even with the most bastard, thinking, "I could do that? The trouble is that the answer to that question, I really doubt hiso my moral integrity XD.
Of course, one of the weakest points of the film is mounting, often gives the impression that we are seeing separate episodes whose only link is their characters and has no real consequences to future situations that we took off and grabbing back to hooked over and over again with the film.
In conclusion, Carriers is a better movie than you might assume with serious errors in its rhythm, and sometimes it gets a little simplistic, but worth seeing for its great handling of the intention and for being a great study of human behavior in extreme situations.
best:
"The intention, the characters and how to carry out a good drama.
Worst:
-A montage a bit unbalanced and disjointed.
for me: 7.3/10
