Publicity has kept us in the dark about Pandorum’s monsters, so what’s it got? Tricks up the sleeve or stuff to hide? Sadly, the logic behind the secrecy relating to Christian Alvart’s sci-fi horror (following his promising Antibodies and tellingly delayed Case 39) looks like damage limitation. Pandorum’s mutants mirror the movie’s misfires: as these foragers and cannibals lurk in darkness before attacking in blurs of ill-defined noise and motion, so the film lingers in the murk for ages only to emerge as a noisy mish-mash of ideas ripped randomly from the guts of better films.

I really want to like this film but have my doubts, I mean it looks tad like Alien, Event Hoizon, The Thing and Dead Space (Xbox 360 game) which is all good but Dennis Quaid is never in good films, Too my knoweledge Example A :- G I Joe (I rest my case). Plus main actor was in Xmen 3 (also awful) with little girly wings which ruined my childhood and basically made it so there could never be a good Xmen film ever ever again....You just need to watch Xmen Origins to know Im right....Anyways heart isnt really into this film at mo...

If it get's 3 stars or more I will go and see it, because there is so little sci-fi out there.
