Scope is something you get when you spend the money, but Guy Pearce spent most of his scenes in that one control room.
Also, it felt like there were missing pieces in terms of exposition. A lot of the "what" was there, but the "why" always seemed to be missing.
In summary, I was entertained by it, but this movie was doomed, virus or no. It just wasn't good enough to pull in crowds over a sustained theatrical release. Quite frankly, it should have gone straight-to-Netflix.
