Review of Flu

Flu (2013)
7/10
The real deal
8 May 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Like many people living in the time of Covid-19, I've been interested in watching films dealing with flu pandemics and the like. This is the Korean version of the story and it's as well made and thrilling as any other Korean movie you could randomly choose. After a melodramatic opening section, the film moves into decent thriller territory with all of the dedicated acting and political commentary you expect from Korean cinema. Once the action shifts to the internment camps it becomes particularly gripping, building to a climax that never lets up. Forget Soderbergh's overrated CONTAGION; FLU is the real deal.
