1.5/4
"A gorgeous production design can't save the picture from trying too hard to dazzle with very little inspiration, and while
Pandorum
is easy to stare at, it can be a seriously punishing sit."

0/4
"An unusually unpleasant and unwatchable sci-fi endeavor..."

"It couldn't keep my attention for even a nano second."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
2/4
"By the time one of the creatures tosses a character a pipe and they proceed to martial arts fight, it's safe to presume that a shark has been jumped and there is no turning things around."

"So bad it ought to be based on a video game."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
2.5/4
"too much of the film devolves into hectic action sequences that makes you feel like someone suddenly dropped you into a blender and turned out all the lights"
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
"The sci-fi bits compensate for the unoriginal horror stuff (sorta). And when nothing else is of interest one can always stare at German actress Antje Traue's cleavage . . ."

"Parental Content Review"
Screen It!
Jim Judy
1/5
"As the credit “Produced by Paul W.S. Anderson” attests, this is hackwork of the highest order, lacking in all poetry and barely comprehensible aurally or visually."
Time Out New York
Keith Uhlich
"Cobbled together from chunks of Battlestar Galactica, The Descent, Serenity, Cube, Resident Evil, Event Horizon and Alien ... Pandorum is an efficient scare machine if you ignore the plot contrivances."
Horror Hacker
Maitland McDonagh
1/3
"Se anuncia como la nueva obra de los creadores de
Resident Evil
; a pesar de que no es algo de lo que estar orgulloso, ayuda bastante a resumir la impresión que produce"
Off-Off-Critica

1.5/4
"The further Bower journeys into the spacecraft's bowels, with Payton providing navigation tips from back in their original sleep chamber, the less
Pandorum
unnerves."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
1.5/5
"An appalling script is only one problem with this loud, chaotic sci-fi thriller. It's also directed in such a deliberately confusing way that it's not only impossible to follow the action, but it's impossible to care about the characters."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
1/5
"Clenches its teeth grimly as it blunders through its overstuffed plot."

"Remember the scene in
Star Trek
where Dr. McCoy talks about all the horrible ways you can die in space?
Pandorum
is basically a visual aid for that speech."
Mania.com
Rob Vaux
3/5
"There are numerous problems with Pandorum, including some really bad dialogue, corny sequences, poorly-written characters and a clunky twist. What works, though, and works well enough to eke out a recommendation as a B-thriller, is the sense of isolation."
