A supervirus has turned humankind into highly intelligent, streamlined killers, and an asymptomatic victim who can communicate with the infected must lead the last survivors on a hunt for Patient Zero and a cure.

A post-apocalyptic pandemic movie that's more grade-Z than "World War Z."

5/10

Patient Zero is void of horror. It struggles to build tension thanks to a predictable plot and lackluster villains, which is as shame considering how the infected were built up to be this menacing force.

In all, I have definitely seen worse movies. Melodrama and over abundance of unnecessary intensity aside, the movie was intense and the twist in the end was not bad. Speaking of, that ending pissed me off.

Patient Zero's watchable vibe takes a rather palpable hit as it enters its padded-out, spinning-its-wheels midsection...

Patient Zero wets an appetite to see similar films, but certainly not to rewatch the film itself.

1/5

This quasi-zombie action movie eventually wanders cluelessly off track, but, as it consists mainly of yelling, sudden loud noises, and camera-shaking, it gets aggravating long before that happens.

If you want to read the review I wrote for this, go to letterboxd.com/HankIsDead514. I can no longer post long reviews on here and I'm not writing two separate reviews for the same movie.

A clever concept poorly executed. There's a genius behind the concept of a man speaking the language of the infected but Patient Zero is so clearly a low budget movie, it's hard to focus on the plot. Patient Zero is a shameful zombie movie especially in the presence of great ones like World War Z.

Decent Movie But Was Left With More Unanswered Questions

ANOTHER zombie film? Well no actually, they're not zombies, they are very angry sick people and this one has Doctor Who in it and he is pretending to be American and it also has Margaery Tyrell from Game of Thrones and she flicks her long blonde hair a lot and there is that other Game of Thrones guy too who had a short beard and wanted to be maester or something. So stick it! Anyway, the film had some decent set pieces despite a ridiculous storyline and some bad acting. It basically follows Doctor Who's attempts to find patient zero, the first person to contract the virus that has now sent everybody bonkers and made them very very angry. Oh and Doctor Who is the only one to have been bitten (THEY'RE NOT ZOMBIES, OK?!) and not turned and he can also communicate with these mad not zombie people which seem to be led by Stanley Tucci! An unexpected but of casting but he was the best thing about this film. Anyway, there is death, chaos and the potential for a sequel (please don't).

I'm glad that I didn't listen to either the critics or the audience score on this one. I enjoyed it. A good cast and intriguing variation on a sci fi staple. What's not to like?
