Susan (Eva Green) fontos kérdéseket kutató tudós. Karrierjéért cserébe minden mást feladott az életben, többek közt a szerelmet is. Egy nap mégis enged az ösztöneinek, amikor találkozik Michaellel, a tehetséges séffel (Ewan McGregor). Míg Susan és Michael a szerelem új, eddig nem tapasztalt mélységeit fedezik fel, a többi ember furcsán kezd viselkedni - egy rémisztő jelenség járványszerűen hat az érzékekre, mindenkin egy ismeretlen betegség lesz úrrá. A világméretű katasztrófa Susant és Michaelt is eléri. A film egy lélekerősítő pillantás abba, hogy mit jelent szeretni és szeretve lenni - különösen a zűrös időkben. (Szuez Film)

Soderbergh Fertőzés filmjének filozofikusabb és produkciós szempontból szerényebb változata. De a szép befejezést leszámítva egyformán hűvös és kimért, ami nem éppen szerencsés megközelítés, tekintve, hogy a két szereplő karakterére (és kapcsolatára) helyezi a hangsúlyt.

Remember One by Metallica? What if all people ended up like that? A great idea to depict a relationship beginning in a world slowly heading towards collapse where people entertain the false hope that things will get better. Both Ewan McGregor and Eva Green are great, even though they eat soap. The only thing that bothered me is that the movie wasn’t devoted only to those two (documentary shots from around the world), or that they didn’t show several stories taking place in various places around the planet.

Steven Soderbergh (Contagion) is much better because he takes a stark, pragmatic, factual approach. David Mackenzie wants to grasp the entire thing in a purely emotional and philosophical way, but he doesn't quite succeed, as we learn almost nothing and he just muses idly to the accompaniment of ethereal music, so the whole thing feels strange. Plus points for the atypical film contribution and a naked Eva Green, otherwise nothing great.

A perfect premise, no doubt. The director of Spread has made a surprisingly ambitious romantic drama with a global catastrophe as a backdrop. The result is quite impressive, but it could have been even more so if the relationship between the two protagonists worked better – I just didn’t feel any bond between McGregor and Green. The apocalyptic line works much better and it was the most enjoyable thing in Perfect Sense. What’s a stumbling block, though, is that the creators want to express way too many things in these two lines (from personal relationships, through the human nature, all the way to our relationship with our planet) and I couldn’t catch the central motif, if there was any to begin with. The resulting impression is as if someone had optimistically told me that I still have one year of a happy life left… 7/10

The person who wrote the official distributor’s text must have lost all his senses (including his sixth sense), but mainly his common sense. Or else deep down he must really hate this movie. Which is equally as unlikely as someone sincerely loving Perfect Sense; originality and form are pushed too much at the expense of everything else for somebody to love this. It is more interesting (and has too many loose ends) than actually good; but luckily it is interesting in just the right way.
