Pandorum isn't going to win anyone over with what i think the production was trying to make it out to be. It can be confusing, the protagonist falls down WAY too much (about 5 times before the first hour)and the rest of the cast of characters (the exception of Dennis Quaid) are bland. Action scenes are filmed too close or too dark.
Yet, I cannot not say Pandorum was bad. It delivered exactly what I expected: a horror sci-fi in a claustrophobic spacecraft with Dennis Quaid doing something questionable. Really, it's fine.
The movie starts off with crew member Bower (Ben Foster) waking up, not knowing who he is, disoriented, & not knowing what his mission is supposed to be. Then another member, lieutenant Payton, (played by Dennis Quaid) wakes up, but no better with the memory. Still, they are determined to turn this ship back on, as things don't look good with it. But where are the other members? What the heck happened and what are those crazy & scary looking things with teeth? Eventually, Bower meets up with more survivors, but we put our focus on Bower and Payton, the only folks who seem to know what might be going on and how to fix it. The title "Pandorum" refers to some kind of space madness that occurs to some folks who wind up thinking that the mission is cursed and go nuts. Enjoyed the ending.
