Its on the sci-fi channel 2night,seems like it only came out on dvd a few weeks ago,what gives?its a great movie,i wasnt expecting it to be up to much.
 
Pandorum was (in my opinion) a potentially good film that was poorly executed.

The set-up is great but it would have been better as a suspenseful horror than the action film it turns into.

There's a good story lurking in there but I was left disappointed by it.
 
It came out on dvd/blu ray in February, so not a few weeks ago...

I enjoyed it but it could have been so much more. Editing/Camera work was messy from what I can remember.
 
I really really wanted to like this film but it completely bored me senseless. There was either too much going on, or nothing happening at all.

There's definitely a good horror lurking in there somewhere though.
 
I thought it was decent, but incredibly unoriginal (and it didn't surprise me to see that it was produced by Paul W.S. Anderson, whose only good film, Event Horizon, was pretty much replayed here). Just about every idea that the film had was stolen from another, better sci-fi film, but i still found it fairly enjoyable for what it was.

I see that the recent 'Triangle' film with Melissa George is next Sundays SyFy film, maybe SyFy are finally spending their money on some decent films as opposed to that 'Mega Shark Vs Bad Acting & SFX' type "films".
 
I dont think it was a rehash of Event Horizon - they were pretty disimilar albeit they were set on spaceships...

Triangle is an absolute headf**k...! I had to watch it 3 times to get my brain around it! Good film, slightly bleak, but well written and inventive!
 
I'm quite surprised Pandorum and Triangle are being shown on tv on Sy-Fi considering they were only in the cinemas sometime last year. Impressive! Wish all the terrestrial channels could follow suit!
