ok just finished
Phase 7 (Argentinian movie, so subtitled)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1568816/
Wow. Much props to these guys. Small budget, Argentinean apocalyptic film. Basically, the opening months of a flu virus that spreads across the world from the view of Coco (dude) as he and his 7month pregnant wife endure inside their quarantined apartment building. There is a lot of subtle genius in the writing. From the continuous put downs Coco receives from his hen pecking wife, to the awesomeness of having a crazy neighbor who has prepared his whole life for the apocalypse. Lots of chuckles throughout. Some minor problems with subtitles, and a few inconsistencies with how lax Coco still is when it is apparent the flu is for real. A bit sloppy on that front, but otherwise solid. More than solid, really.
P.S. Don't count the Chinese out!
