The Carrier (2015)
6/10
Room for a lot of improvement!

Saw this on the shelf in a supermarket for £7 & thought to buy it as I was intrigued by it's synopsis. Though I had different thoughts after watching this film.

The Carrier, global incurable virus which is swarming the United Kingdom. A 747 Plane full of 8 survivours is in the sky avoiding the chaos which is unfolding 40,000ft below them. But a few of the survivours are infected & things begin to spiral out of control!

The film itself was lacking in kills & dramatic action which I was expecting from looking at the DVD cover & the trailer which looked promising! I mean something along the lines of 2010 remake, The Crazies which not only had a fast paced & great story-line, but had loads of mad things going on in it! It never gets old & is watchable over & over again! If that had been combined with this film it would've been so epic!

But this is not the case with this film, which was slow to begin with & kind of messed up with what one of the protagonist's was doing which made little to no sense! Though the beginning & opening credits were pretty cool it did have me wondering how this film was going to play out!

The effects which a little bit cheap & but somewhat better than other CGI films with far worse effects & editing!

The ending was by far the worst I'd ever seen! It just ended on a cliff hanger (Which I hate!), it literally made me feel abit cheated!

I overall would give this film an average rating of 6/10. The film could've done with way more chaotic action & kills. Not to mention the biggest killer in films today with boring drag on story-line! Which could have been cut dramatically!
