This scene, specifically, is such a good scene, from the eerie weird music, to the realistic events which play out in the span of a few minutes...the director did an amazing job showing the process of contamination and how the virus spreads.

[ThePlur]

What’s absolutely terrifying about this is the people in the background being infected without you noticing unless you look for it. The flight attendant had contact when passing the drink. The airplane bathroom is contaminated especially the handle.The model was sitting next to other models and left her pictures in the table to be touched. The girlfriend worries about her boyfriend not looking well. The old woman and children in the elevator were in close contact with him coughing. The bus passengers touching the man that fainted. The food market being contaminated. It goes on and on.

2011:Drama/thriller
2020:Documentary

[goldeneagle]

Contagion was the most underrated movie of the past decade!!!

[Zones]

While the virus IRL was not as bad, the government response was much, much worse than portrayed in the movie.

[rogerkincaid]

This is a horror film. Gets under my skin everytime I see it.

2011:We’re audiences
2020:We’re actors/actress in real life

[luisinacasirola]

I was in China when the first three cases of Covid were in the news. I remembered this movie right when I saw the news and I alerted all my friends. It didn't take long before it hit our city and we spent like 2 months on a strict lockdown AND WHEN I SAY STRICT I MEAN IT

[peterfrank]

Only in my second viewing that I noticed Soderbergh has shots focused on objects the infected are touching.

[lapiubella]

I was haunted by this movie from the first time I saw it in 2012. Never forgot it and when I first heard of a mysterious virus in China in December 2019, I immediately watched this again. Went out and bought masks, Lysol wipes, hand sanitizer, and a bunch of other supplies most people weren’t even thinking about. Sometimes a Hollywood movie really can teach you something valuable.

2011: Man, that would suck if this were to happen.
2020: Yup.

[SupermarketSweep]

A self fulfilling prophecy of a movie.

[alinaespinoza]

This movie is really realistic. I have Covid-19 right now and the process of this virus getting spread so quickly is exactly how it is. People dismiss the fact that it's a lethal virus and this rages me. Many people can carry this virus to people with weak immune systems and can die because of it.

[brianortega]

I remember renting this movie from block buster like 10 years ago

[yudhabagaskara]

hats off to steven soderbergh. 9 years ahead of its time

[rezatravellers]

This movie aged very, very well indeed

[Salvador-zc]

today I watched that movie again with my son . Much like what we are living. Thanks to God we can still use medicines and some are cured, me and my son had covid and we are fine now, in the film nobody was cured until the vaccine getting ready and another thing is the time it takes people to get vaccinated. Today here in Brazil around 4 thousand people are dying a day. May God have mercy.

[vitomcsween]

Can't believe this movie is more popular now than it was a decade ago because of the pandemic happening now

[roastingpotato]

People used to think this movie was “unrealistic”. The people who thought that way clearly didn’t realize how deeply human selfishness and stupidity can run.
