3 out of 5 stars BETTER THAN QUARANTINE   June 30, 2010
Michael Ledo (Windsor, SC United States)
To say this is the movie on which quarantine would be incorrect. Quarantine is a remake of this movie, down to the last scene. I wish I had never seen Quarantine before I watched this film as it ruined it. What makes this movie better is that there is less lame build up time at the fire department. I have a prejudice against these stupid cheap had held movies. Having said that, this one wasn't too bad as much of the film didn't have that stupid herky-jerky motion, i.e. it was professionally shot and in wide screen. When was the last time you saw a local news outfit film the everyday going ons at the fire department?


4 out of 5 stars One of the best of Cinema Verite   June 13, 2010
Donald A. Prentiss (minneapolis, mn United States)
This Cinema Verite point of view flick is well acted, has a great sense of creepiness and though I am not a huge fan of the shaking camera work of these type of films, REC was effectively directed and has great re-watchablity!


1 out of 5 stars A Rip-off   May 19, 2010
P. B Rubalcaba (Redlands, CA USA)
0 out of 19 found this review helpful

This loser is a total rip-off of the great film "Quarantine". Avoid this one...watch the other. Technically, this one is a disaster. All of the voices are out-of-synch, which will drive you crazy. Don't you hate it when the mouths move a half-second behind the actual sound? AVOID...at all costs. And there's no acting (actors or actresses). This is definitely one that should have NEVER been [REC]!!!


2 out of 5 stars Dubbing kills this   May 16, 2010
John Marc Ventimiglia (Colorado)
I should know better. I always avoid dubs. While I recall recently seeing a dubbed movie that was quite surprising, it wasnt this one.
When dubbing is this bad, it is really hard to say if the movie had any merits, IMO.



4 out of 5 stars REC   May 14, 2010
A. Szarka (Hawaii)
So Quarantine is not an original film huh? It's a redo or REC. I guess i shouldn't have been shocked, oh well. I watched this and felt like I was watching Quaratine but in Spanish. Yeesh, if your going to redo a film from another country, at least make it a little different no? Rec was good and the final creature at the end was way cooler looking. I really don't know what else to say. I should just copy what i said about Quarantine and paste on it here. Seems like a lot of movies now are either remakes of films from other places or from the 1970 or 80's.

I don't know when REC 2 came out, but i found copies of it at Toys n Joys. I watched it a few hours ago with my friend. It takes off right from the end of REC. It's good and scary with a surprise return person from REC.
