Movie Fan –
Excellent!
I *might* give it 4.5 but since I can’t, I’ll round up because it really is extremely good. Great cast in a thought provoking little movie… What would you or would you not be capable of in such a situation? Are you sure? Which character would you be most like? I am a fan a post apocalyptic films, and honestly this is one of the better ones. Yes, it’s low budget and there isn’t much detail given as to how it happened, but enough is implied (especially after experiencing the year that was 2020. Predictive programming?) and just barely enough character backstory. We are left to fill in some of the blanks ourselves, and with careful observance and listening to the chilling sound effects, like “echos” of what had gone down, it’s not hard to imagine. And it’s pretty terrifying.
Cory in AZ –
Great movie
If you like post-disaster movies, this may be one of the best movies that you have never heard of due to an extremely limited release in the US. The story is simply a group of friends trying to reach a safe destination after a virus outbreak has decimated the population. The acting is top-notch and the special effects are realistic. Granted, this movie does not bring anything new to the genre, but it is executed very well. Carriers is filled with a lot of “what would I do?” situations and cleverly explores different outcomes. The movie is filmed entirely from the perspective of the main characters, so there are a lot of loose threads (what started the outbreak? what happened to that character? what just happened in the background?). You know only what the main characters know. Personally, I don’t think that movies should have to explain every detail, because real life just does not work that way. Carriers is reminiscent of many other movies, but stands well on it’s own. It it definitely worth tracking down.

Decent film that depicts a reality we may not be far from…
Never heard of this till it came up in Amazon recommended. Sounded interesting and similar to whats been going on now with the corona. I ordered a brand new copy direct from Amazon at a decent price. I’m not a film buff but some of the actors seemed familiar. It was a good movie. Not great, just good. What made it so interesting was that it doesn’t seem so far fetched…. hopefully things don’t get so far gone but seeing how many people are ignoring the pandemic and think it’s fake, well, it sadly could be what’s to come. Carriers was filmed over 10 years ago and probably had a small budget but it’s still interesting and a good watch. A ” one watch “, but a good one.

A short and sweet post-apocalyptic thriller
I picked this up on a whim. It seemed right up my alley, but I was surprised that I had never heard of it before, especially since it stars the new Captain James Tiberius Kirk. My expectations were very low. Seemed like it was going to be a cheap little independent film with no substance. But I was wrong: it’s a cheap little independent film that’s actually pretty smart.The premise is a tad cliche. It takes places after a devastating and extremely-contagious virus has decimated the planet. We never get an explanation for the outbreak or how our main characters have survived up until now–true to post-apocalyptic form. I would agree that sometimes it’s a pain when a filmmaker tries to explain everything when the audience can usually fill in the blanks themselves, but still, we’re getting to the point were it’s expected.The story itself follows four young adults: two brothers and their respective girlfriends. They’re on their way to a beach that the brothers used to frequent in their younger days, and doing their best to scavenge for food and gas enroute. Semi-weak premise, semi-weak story, and semi-weak characters. Luckily, the writing and directing are good enough to see this movie through all 85 minutes of its running time.For the most part, it’s all about the little encounters along the way to this beach of theirs. The people that they meet and the situations that they get themselves into during their most desperate times play out very well. It starts out kind of slow, but it finds its feet fast enough. These encounters are very tense and well shot. And they very expertly provide us post-apocalypse aficionados with what we always look for in a movie like this: Situations that force us as viewers to question how we would handle such a thing. Would we really resort to such strict utilitarianism, or would we do “the right thing?” They’re interesting to think about, to me, at least.So, for a rental, I certainly think I got my money’s worth. The ending was rushed and ill-conceived, which was extremely unfortunate, since it deterred me from thinking of purchasing it. This is a shame, since halfway through, it was almost looking like America’s answer to 28 DAYS LATER. Better characterization, a better ending, and a longer running time would have made this a winner. The directors are definitely talented, and I hope they consider making a sequel of some kind.Maybe four stars is a little high, but this movie was great for what it was. It was short, had some great moments, and it’s one of the better movies in the genre to have been released lately. It’s definitely worth the rent, and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

Carriers – unknown film – good
Saw this a long time ago and love it. Sad ending.

Carriers… more like “Lingerers” because this one doesn’t let up or leave you after it ends.
We’ve had “28 Days Later”, “Zombieland”, “The Happening”, “Dawn of the Dead” and so many other viral pandemic movies over the last few years. In October, Paramount released this long-shelved project in theaters for one week. This is a thinking man’s version of the viral story we’ve seen many times. Intense. Character-driven, practically no dead bodies in sight and no one getting chased or bitten. It stars four up-and-coming young actors (you’ve seen them all in other stuff since this was made). Unwavering in story, resolute in getting into your brain, unyielding with possibilities. I give this film a big thumb’s up. The trailer doesn’t do the film justice. It’s really about 4 people who are faced with a situation that changes each of them and the dynamics amongst them. Again and again. I literally stopped it for a few minutes I was so struck by it. I’d say it’s in my top 5 movies of this year. And I see a lot of movies. Fans of the psychological thriller “The Ruins” would adore this film.

hallo,hier nun also wieder ein virusfilm. warum geht es?das virus hat schon fast alles menschliche leben auf der erde ausgelöschtund man begleitet vier personen bei dem versuch einfach zu überleben.achtung: hier gibt es keine grossartige action oder zombies. der film ist ruhig!!!der film erklärt nichts!!! weder das virus, wie weit es schon fortgeschritten ist noch die charctere werden näher beleuchtet (einzig das brüderpaar erhält diesen background). der film begleitet einfach vier personen bei ihrer reise zum meer (in der kindheitserinnerung der beiden brüder ein friedlicher und ruhiger ort bzw. jetzt ein zufluchtsort). die vier charactere treffen weitere überlebende menschen welche ebenfalls sich mit der situation arrangieren und überleben wollen. da dies aber jeder will entstehen zwischenmenschliche konflikte. man verfolgt diese konflikte, die gezogenen beschlüÃe sind konsequent und realitätsnah. die betrachtung bleibt hauptsächlich auf den brüdern. was mit den anderen personen geschieht, welche auf der reise getroffen werden, wird nicht erzählt.um konflikte zwischen menschen geht es bei diesem film. er stellt fragen, wie weit gehst du um zu überleben? wen läÃt du zurück? was opferst du? tötest du? entscheidest du dich für den menschen oder den tod? welches risiko gehst du ein?da der film aber überhaupt keine fragen beantwortet dürfte er vielen personen nicht wirklich zusagen. der film ist trocken, ernst, düster und deprimierend.also kein film für zwischendurch. die schauspieler spielen meiner meinung nach gut, das bild der dvd ist ebenfalls gut (röhrenfernsher).wer sich auf ernste filme einlassen kann und auch ein interesse an endzeitfilmen hat sollte nicht enttäuscht werden.wer schnelle action und plastikkino sucht: unbedigt finger weg!!!ein endzeitszenario welche ich durchaus als realistisch einstufen würde.ich fand den film klasse und bin beeindruckt.

Film réalisé en 2006 qui aura nécessité 3 ans pour enfin sortir au cinéma, la Paramount l’ayant laissé dans un tiroir et attendant que Chris Pine soit plus connu. Dommage.Au final, on a l’essentiel des tensions psychologiques de Walking Dead (commencé en 2010) compressé en 1h25. Exit les zombies et la violence, le film tourne essentiellement sur la psychologie des survivants et l’ambivalence entre l’attachement et la survie. Les scènes de suspens sont bien menées et les scènes d’arrachement affectif sont intenses. On est vite submergé par l’émotion au fil des aventures, ne serait ce qu’avec la petite fille malade et son père dés le tout début du film.Chris Pine joue le role du grand frère protecteur et impulsif, prêt à tout pour emmener son petit frère jusqu’au bout. Son personnage, attachant comme énervant, est assez complexe et il porte tout le film sur ses épaules.Les autres personnages, plus effacés, portent néanmoins une forte charge psychologique quant à leur destin spécifique.Film très recommandé, dans la même veine que Maggie avec Schwarzenegger.

Just to note – that the Australian Blu-ray ratio is 1.78, when the original film was made in 2.35There is a short interview with Chris Pine.One of those ‘rare’ titles that is not released in the US… however there are a few Euro editions in the correct ratio

I read the negative reviews of this film before I purchased the DVD so I was not expecting much but I guess because of this, I found the film better than I had expected.It’s not really a horror or even an action film. It is purley a human drama about 4 young teens that have survived a plague that has killed off most of teh country/world and they have certain rules about survival which get broken during the film which ultimately leads to a few deaths.The films focus is on two brothers but I never really felt that emotionally attached to them nor their girlfriends.This is meant to be the extended cut but at 81 minutes I dread to think how long the unextended cut was!!There are no extras on the disc at all which means you are not getting a lot for your money. I would say make your own mind up about this film and if you do want to see it then it may be best to rent the film instead (my copy of the DVD will now be going to a car boot sale!)I disagree that the film does not have a proper ending. I think it does as its the end of the story for the two brothers with them reaching their destination. It’s s shame there were no flashbacks to show us how the plague first started but I guess you have to use your imagination.
