Virus Ratings & Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Your average winter cold follows a less predictable course.
Chicago Reader
Lisa Alspector
Until the diverting special effects take center stage, this story, about an alien intelligence that builds an army out of flesh and metal, pathetically exploits genre conventions without generating self-reference, camp, or thrills.
Variety
Joe Leydon
A derivative sci-fi shocker that isn't likely to spark much interest beyond its target audience of undemanding genre fans.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
a respectable little thriller that packs a couple of genuine jolts and gallon upon gallon of gore into a goofy, sometimes suspenseful yarn.
Film Blather
Eugene Novikov
No one in the right mind would call this a good film, or even a decent one, but thankfully, rookie feature director John Bruno's romp is not a complete waste of celluloid.
Film Threat
Tom Meek
Even Donald Sutherland in the potentially juicy role as a self-serving old sea dog, is wasted in this big budget ill.
Netflix
James Rocchi
Monster movie is a monstrous failure.
Boxoffice Magazine
Dwayne E. Leslie
When the automated robotic lab starts using dead bodies as biological material to create killing machines programmed to believe man is harmful and must be destroyed.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
bathed in an incessant gloom that makes it look like one of the comic book artists who inspired this sci-fi/horror hybrid spilled his ink blotter on the film's negatives
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
An unpretentious, amusing thrill-a-minute sci-fi horror thriller / monster movie that plugs right into fears of a Y2K crisis.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Graham
The dialogue tends toward the obvious, and the characters are constantly explaining what is happening to one another.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The last shot is an homage to The African Queen, a movie I earnestly recommend instead of this one.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
It's dead in the water.
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
The monsters themselves are quite a bit less than frightening, most of them being little mechanical gadgets with spidery legs and not much resistance to machine-gun fire.
New York Times
Lawrence Van Gelder
As long on adrenaline and special effects as it is short on genuine novelty and intellectual content.
New York Post
Rod Dreher
Completely predictable and largely fright-free!
AboutFilm.com
Carlo Cavagna
The conventions of the genre are well-established, and Virus uninspiredly copies them all.
E! Online
Besides the bloodthirsty E.T., tugboat navigator Curtis must deal with something even worse: lousy acting from her fellow cast members.
JoBlo's Movie Network
JoBlo
This is not a great movie. It's not even a good movie.
