Coughs and sneezes do indeed spread diseases in this amusingly feverish thriller, a Korean attempt to take back some of those lurgies let loose by Soderbergh's colder-blooded "Contagion."

A case of the flu quickly morphs into a pandemic. As the death toll mounts and the living panic, the government plans extreme measures to contain it.

What are critics saying?
The result? Not so much "World War Z" as World War Zzzz.
The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
The romance may be risible, but the scenes of mass panic and political desperation are slickly disturbing.
The story flatlines as the crisis escalates, falling prey to pedestrian human drama and improbable conspiracy subplots.
