bilejo In my opinion, this movie is a contender for one of the worse movies I've ever scene. Just my opinion, but....! So, in a sense, this review is, indeed, a spoiler cause anyone who reads it may not rent or buy it cause I consider it such a terrible production. The acting is not that good and the director must have been inexperienced. In short, I'm sorry I rented it.

lamby-40475 Essentially, there is a virus that is gonna kill everyone. there are several couples in the film, and they tell each other how much they love each other, over and over again, for one and a half hours. I kept thinking something was going to happen. The lines are pretty poor, they attempt to sound really deep and meaningful, but in reality, if you have seen a film about couples in love, you will have heard all the same garbage before. It includes lines such as, I love you, I have never met anyone like you, I'm so lucky to have you, I never want to lose you. Yep, all classic lines that even someone who has just started learning English as a second language, could muster in an attempt to perform a Nigerian 419 Scam.

mspace52 Watched this on Netflix, and it became so tedious I started to fast-forward through the prolonged, meaningless rounds of chatter. The ending was so incomplete you might think that they all just decided to call it quits and walked off the set.It was an interesting premise, the status of relationships against the backdrop of a global health crisis. However, the crisis itself wasn't developed in a believable manner. Dude is playing basketball blissfully unaware that an airborne chemical weapon is drifting to the US, after having left hundreds of millions dead in the Middle East and Europe. (Really, that didn't turn up in his news-feed?) And there was little reflection within the relationship, in regard to these terrifying events, as most of what you are subjected to is the events in their lives prior to the release of the toxin.

centinel822 Parts Per Billion follows the intertwined stories of three couples at different stages in their lives who are dealing with their relationships during a time of global crisis. Each couple is dealing with their own issues within the context of larger events. Those seeking scenes of mass hysteria and destruction will be disappointed. This is a relationship movie, through and through.It's no surprise that the cast is terrific, and do the best with what they have to work with. Whatever faults may exist, the writers and cast create believable and interesting characters. The non-linear nature of the story -- the scenes jump from couple to couple and from time to time -- can be a tad confusing at times, but it was probably necessary to provide a feeling that something is happening. This is important, because nothing actually is happening. To use a cliché, it's like the characters are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic without even acknowledging that its sinking. There is an unreal feel to how the looming external crisis is ignored by pretty much everyone until it is on top of them. For this reason, the film wastes the whole concept of impending doom and leaves us dealing with normal couples dealing with normal issues.Perhaps it was the director's intent to show how we get so swept up in our own personal affairs that we can't see the big picture, but it just seems to me to be a waste of a good premise. I can't help but compare Parts Per Billion to Another Earth. Both are small-budget films that deal with tragic relationships in the shadow of bigger events, but the later film was able to tie the two things together. This, too, could have been a poignant film, but it comes up short.
