Contagion definitely has more star power than just about any other genre film released this year, but if we’ve learned anything over the years, it’s that Trembles isn’t one to be swayed by high-power actors. Let’s see what he thought of this Steven Soderbergh helmed film starring the likes of Marion Cotillard, Bryan Cranston, Matt Damon, Jennifer Ehle, Laurence Fishburne, Chin Han, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Kate Winslet.

Contagion follows the rapid progress of a lethal airborne virus that kills within days. As the fast-moving epidemic grows, the worldwide medical community races to find a cure and control the panic that spreads faster than the virus itself. At the same time ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart.

Godzilla, King Kong, and Frankenstein all in one” –Jude Law (I wish!)
