Here is what people are saying about the Outbreak
5 Star Rating  ""Virus-scare" of our time!!!!"2009-07-02
- Reviewed By User: A9FVSJX9XW8WM
This is one fantastic movie!!! I belive that everyone should take the time to watch this film, cuz' it illustates what could "really" happen, if a virus infection had an outbreak-hence, the title.
The director: Wolfgang Peterson, has also had some other great films as well-such as: TROY, POSEIDEN, Das BOOTE (I've never seen das boote; been meaning to check it out-i heard it's such a great German-made film!!).
The movie, "OUTBREAK" is also filled with a good amount of action and suspense, thus also making it high on my list of good flix!!!
So, check out OUTBREAK ASAP-you won't be disappointed!!!!!

4 Star Rating  "Shaky, but in the end manages to hold strong"2008-12-11

Outbreak is about a violent pathogen, clearly modeled after the Ebola virus (they even use pictures of the Ebola virus when they show images on the microscope) and a group of individuals who are on a race to find the cure before the government torches an entire town full of infested American citizens. The U.S. government is not monkey-ing around (pardon the pun) with this disease, saying that the only procedure for containment is destruction. Let's try and forget this concept has been in the movies for decades.

Like your typical sci-fi/virus related film the government wants to keep the virus as a biological weapon, while our good guys race to find the host species to create a cure, and keep it from spreading the disease even further. It's the classic tale of government against freedom, which really has been done to death, but don't expect this formula to leave Hollywood anytime soon. The material is a bit too geared towards action and fun, when real Level-4 hot zone viruses, such as Ebola, are nothing to be cheering over. Those things are incredibly scary.

This movie naturally ends with a chase scene involving helicopters, with no real point, other than to say their budget allowed for a helicopter chase scene. This is unnecessary, and somewhat ridiculous, but entertaining nonetheless. I mean, come on, what's a blockbuster without an adrenaline filled, drawn out chase scene involving guns and explosions?

Outbreak really wasn't the best popcorn feature I've ever seen. I found it, tacky, and unoriginal, but I also found it quite entertaining. This was the first R-rated feature I was screened in a High School Biology class, so I guess that may be one reason it seemed special, but overall I do think it made it as good popcorn entertainment, if not a good movie telling of the dangers of Level-4 viruses.

Outbreak undoubtedly draws inspiration from the cases of Ebola and Marburg viruses in Richard Preston's nonfiction novel `The Hot Zone' (a GREAT read by the way). It takes this very serious issue and in the end manages to make it in to a decently entertaining action-thriller. I would have much preferred a movie-adaptation of the true events listed in `The Hot Zone'. It wouldn't have made for a popcorn film, but it would've certainly made for a good, honest movie that didn't hold any punches.

For the most part the acting cast was good. As usual Kevin Spacey and Morgan Freeman provide entertaining performances, making you focus on them WHENEVER they're on screen, but I still feel a bit iffy about the casting of Dustin Hoffman; he was good but I'm not sure if he was the best choice for the role. I think Hoffman should've seemed a bit more dedicated to his studies around the virus than he apparently is in this movie. He just didn't seem concentrated enough on the virus, considering his character supposedly had dedicated his life to it.

The movie wasn't the best blockbuster, but it managed to entertain and for that, and some wonderful imagery I liked Outbreak for what it was. Disposable fun, that keeps you in your seat.
 
4 Star Rating  "Bluray Review"2008-12-01
- Reviewed By User: A183ND8FJRZPGE
I havent seen this movie since i was a kid. (born in 85) but all i know is this movie creeped me out. I recently picked up the bluray version on black friday, and just finished watching it earlier tonight. I must say the film itself looks very good. I cant say much about audio since im currently without a home theater system, but i will have my new one tomorrow. Here are my thoughts:

Video: 4/5
Overall video is very clear and crisp. Gets grainy during some night scenes, but thats actually common with most HD films imo. Id say a solid transfer to bluray. especially for a film made in 1995. I hope "Heat" looks this good if bluray ever remasters it.

Audio: n/a
Cant say much since i currently dont have a home theater system. But it sounded good on my televsion.

Movie: 5/5
I think its a great thriller to show how deadly viruses can be, and the performances of actors/actresses make this a good satisfying purchase.
 
4 Star Rating  "Relevant story line, engaging characters, scary plot"2008-11-09
- Reviewed By digitalbabe
I saw this film years ago, and watched it on BD for the first time yesterday on a 42" Plasma and BD30K BD player. The storyline invokes the type of fear that is reminiscent of the best medical/disaster films, and the characters are real, and caused me to root for them. The acting was a bit over the top, but it was bearable, as the film was very suspenseful.

The history of the virus, military coverups and the ensemble cast create an exciting climax, and I mostly enjoyed the scenes between Kevin Spacey, Rene Russo and Dustin Hoffman in tracking down patient zero. For anyone that doesn't believe that this could happen, you are in denial. While we should not become victims of fear mongers and media-induced anxiety, the film paints a realistic "path" of how a virus could quickly spread.

I found the editing a bit abrupt in parts, and unfortunately, the transfer was not as clear as it would have been. Many sky shots and the colors were blurry the colors were not as vibrant. However, overall, if you like the action/disaster genre and enjoy films with a scientific/medical basis, this film will be entertaining and revelatory to you. 3.5 PQ, 5/5 AQ.
