    Intriguing idea that fails on numerous levels

    While nonsensical on many levels, I thought the premise of the film was interesting. I was fascinated to see how the world would 'connect the dots' of what was happening. But we're not witness to very much along those lines.

    Instead, we're taken from 'normal world' to 'crazy world' in the flash of an eye. I realized after watching this movie, that the film makers wanted to sell their political viewpoint, but it didn't work for me.

    Lastly, many films that are apocalyptical like this one, tend to use the same plot device of the protagonists needing to escape where they live, for safer ground far away, and the story revolves around their journey trying to get there. I found the journey to be boring, and I wasn't impressed once I had arrived. My rating = 5.

    slow behaviour study.

    This movie is starting quiet slow with lots of annoying people, gets slightly intriguing in the middle part and suddenly fades out even slower into nothing.

    Don't get me wrong, I see the efforts they've put into this and the movie features solid acting and good cinematography, but still, like others mentioned before: there is no likeable or even relatable character to find here. The plot is paper thin and doesn't do much. I guess in the end, this is more of a psychological behaviour study, that one has to sit through with a shake of the head the whole time. Narcissists do unrelatable things and that's about it. If that triggers you, stay well clear of this movie.

    Ironically the movie starts with someone making a pitch for a movie script, which would have been much better, if executed right.

    Don't waste your time and money, it's not worth it. In comparison to worse movies, I'd still give it a 4.5 to 5/10 for technical aspects and some good acting.

    3 rating is generous

    Hope they didn't spend more than 100 dollars to make this movie because that's about what it looks like. The writing is laughably bad, the acting feels phoned in, and the pacing is a complete disaster. Nothing good to say about it-no redeeming qualities, no interesting ideas, just a frustrating waste of time.

    It honestly feels like a 13-year-old scribbled down a half-baked script in an hour, and the next day, someone decided, "Yep, let's film this." The dialogue is cringeworthy, the plot makes no sense, and whatever message they were trying to deliver gets lost in the sheer absurdity of it all.

    I want my time back. Avoid this movie at all costs.

    Great concept delivered poorly

    A virus that kills off the richest, most influential, and the most greedy sounds like a good idea. I loved The Platform (first one, not second) so of course it's worth watching Rich Flu considering it's the same writers and Director. Could it be they were high when they thought of this great concept, and continued to get high when they made it. The production is chaotic. The shaky camera work and jumpy editing made me feel sea-sick. This movie might have been better if written as a comedy or satire, especially with that bizarre "white glowing teeth" touch. Didn't work as an action drama and the characters were dull. Some components of this story were interesting, must have been part of the original great conception, but the way they weaved it together was poorly executed. What a waste of a big budget.

    It's just not a very good movie

    The plot was interesting - but executed terribly.

    The acting is pretty solid (apart from Lorraine Bracco who was truly horrible).

    Cinematography and set are ok.

    But, the problem is that it's simply not a good movie. It's boring, has uninteresting characters and a very awkward pacing.

    I gave it a 4/10 even though maybe a lower rating would actually be more apt.
