Parts of the movie are very absorbing. All the acting is conventional. I don't think I wasted my time watching this, but it is not a keeper.
How is that I can understand how all the pieces of the picture fit together yet come away with a feeling that the movie did not put them together correctly?

This is one of the most boring films I've seen in quite some time. While the basic concept is an interesting one how it's handled is a badly conceived mess of epic porportions. The cast appears to be almost in a daze with no decent performances at all. Contagion deals with a mystery disease which quickly spreads causing the deaths of millions. This is a cliched filled mess. It's a badly done rip off of the movie Outbreak.
