The acting seems SO fake, and the dialogue and sound feels like very poor dubbing. This movie could have been good if someone else made it. But the very fake acting and unlikeable characters destroys everything that could have been good with this movie. I have seen this in other movies too lately. What are they doing? Recording ALL dialogue after the movie is finished? Because most of the actors can't speak proper English? In that case it would have been so much better with original language and subtitles (although I hate subtitles...). I gave this 3 stars because they made me watch it cause of the storyline. But really, don't waste your time on earth watching this garbage.
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.

One of the most stupid movies I ever seen in my life, it's so disappointing that I even decided to write it here to protect people from watching it. The main hero is such a narcissistic and stupid b**** that all the movie you're getting angry fromall of her actions and stupidity, she knows she does harm to her family but pretends that she doesn't. The whole movie is so irrational and illogical that every second you ask yourself "can it be even worse?" and yu get it! Again and again! These teeth are another story........During the whole movie I didn't have any feelings or emotions about any of it's characters....... I just want my time back.
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.

Rich Flu claims to be about an infection that causes the most hated wealthy parasites die.
This is an intriguing thought: A virus that evens the playing field. An agent sent to right all wrongs.
Surely that is a relevant topic and fertile ground for a good movie? Not really.
For instance, consider the movies "heroine" Laura Palmer.
She is inexplicably vain, superficial and possessed by delusions of superiority She is spiteful to her ex about their daughter and yet she is a terrible mother. Her friends and her social sphere consist of detestable, cringe worthy, (yet very trendy) little poseurs whose personalities and faces inspire your punching reflex.
You have to give the makers of this film credit for creating a unique vehicle. A pandemic focuses its power on the super villains of our time. Yet you cannot find anyone in the film you would wish to survive.
Yes, some despicable oligarchs perish but there are absolutely no characters in this film to admire or side with. ALL of the characters on both sides are contemptible little piggies. There is no one at all to cheer for.
You can't wait for the "heroes" to start dying and the film to end thereby ending your misery.
