I am not quite surprised to see that this movie got a rating of 6.7 (April 2020). People who watched it before corona virus outbreak or the people who doesn't have any ideas about pandemic diseases failed to comprehend the importance of this film, and they also could not relate themselves with the film. This movie got so many important things right. I am not denying it added some irrational drama to spice things up a bit, but the film conveys its message successfully. Today(2020) we see people are fighting over toilet tissues, so called civilized humans can't manage to stay civil in a time of crisis. And there are opportunists who are making up conspiracy theories and selling those stories to gullible brain-washed people, eventually people lose faith in their governments; it should be admitted that sometimes governments are guilty of incompetence too. However, in the end, we still can see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel, some scientists, doctors, nurses are sacrificing or risking their lives for others; that's humanity at its best. 'Contagion' successfully covers many important aspect of a pandemic disease crisis. This is a fast-paced movies, and many critically acclaimed actors are starred in this movie like Matt Damon,Kate Winslet, Laurence Fishburne, Marion Cotillard,Jude Law, Bryan Cranston, Gwyneth Paltrow... you know how much Steven Soderbergh love to cast high profile actors in his films; so this film is definitely not boring. This is one of those rare films which are both entertaining and educational. Contagion was released in 2011, but probably it's going to be the most important film of 2020.
