Pandorum is a science fiction thriller film released in 2009. The movie is set in the year 2174 and follows the story of two astronauts, Bower (Ben Foster) and Payton (Dennis Quaid), who wake up from hypersleep with no memory of who they are, where they are or what their mission is. They quickly discover that they are aboard the Elysium, a massive spacecraft carrying over 60,000 people on a 123-year mission to reach and colonize the planet Tanis. However, the ship is malfunctioning, and the crew seems to have all disappeared or gone mad.

As they attempt to unravel the mystery and find a way to save themselves and the spaceship, Bower and Payton face terrifying creatures that have taken over the ship, known as Pandorum. They must fight to survive while discovering the truth behind their mission and the dangerous threat that lies within the spacecraft.

The movie is intense and suspenseful, with a fast-paced narrative and action-packed scenes throughout. The storyline is unique, and the universe that the movie exists in is compelling and immersive.

One of the strengths of the movie is the strong performances from the two leads. Ben Foster’s character, Bower, brings a vulnerability and grittiness to the role, and Dennis Quaid’s Payton, adds gravitas and wisdom to the situation. Their chemistry onscreen is fantastic, and they create a dynamic that is engaging and believable.

Another strength of the movie is the world-building. The vision of the future depicted in Pandorum is both believable and terrifying. The film creates an oppressive and claustrophobic atmosphere that adds to the sense of danger and unpredictability throughout.

The attention to detail in the production design and special effects is impressive, and the movie offers some stunning set pieces and visuals.

The movie also features a strong supporting cast, including the likes of Cam Gigandet and Antje Traue. These actors bring depth and nuance to their roles, and the interactions between the characters are dynamic and interesting.

Overall, Pandorum is an engaging and well-executed science fiction thriller that offers a unique and immersive world. It manages to balance strong performances, exceptional production design, and intense action with a compelling storyline that keeps the audience guessing until the very end.

Pandorum is a 2009 action movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 48 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.7 and a MetaScore of 28.
