@@achillesrodriguezxx3958 900 yrs is not much to have any detrimental mutations. That's just few generations which is not enough time to mutate.

"Underrated doesn't even describe how underrated this movie is." Why do people have to keep saying that one or some of their favourite films are underrated? These films are not "underrated; they are just generally unappreciated by the vast majority of the audience, and that is the way that I like it. Few people (respectively) have heard or even seen 'Dark City'. But the film is not underrated or unappreciated by the millions of fans who love it.
@@BrySmi "It was really perfect as is." That's the way I like it; ignored by most people except by its fans! Of course, there's one thing even worse than a sequel - a dreaded remake! Strangely, they never made a sequel to the similar (but inferior) 'The Truman Show!
Underrated because it is not a big hollywood made movie but an European movie. This is also the exact reason why it is a great movie compared to 90% of the Hollywood shit we get. European moviemakers need to make more movies like this.
You ever hear of Boondock Saints? Came out almost a decade and a half before this film, he was famous, trust me, many knew his name before that goofy WD show ae out.@@JosephStalin311
The scariest part of this movie was when the innocent crew in pods were ejected/vented into the void. Imagine waking up or being awake, seeing yourself floating out into the darkness, knowing you'll run out of oxygen and no one will come for you, dying afraid.
In a sense, that's how we all die. The realization one is about to die always comes as a surprise. And no one and nothing in the world will come to save you from the eternal abyss once you realize it's your time. It is something you face alone. And you have no control over when your time is up. And we're almost never given advance notice. Have a nice day :)
@@noctemeternis5434 what?? u know its very different to die in a gradual or announced way like suffocation or by sickness; than in sudden death like a car accident or a terrorist attack right, without even getting in to suicides.. every dead is unique by the method and mental state of each person.. so in NO sense that how we ALL die.. theres a whole non forensic branch of science that study the aspects of death including its environmet.. very pretty and deep your perspective, but in no way close to be objectively accurate..
Also near the halfway point of the movie when the trio was trying to escape, they raised a pod and the mutants all ate him alive. It bought the trio time, but damn, that would be so horrifying, to wake up only to be immediately die.
Ive never cared for reviews, especially ones from that rotten tomatos crap site. Too many times I've seen movies slammed with negative reviews and yet those same movies are amazing and I still re-watch them while other movies are praised in their reviews and yet they freaking suck horribly.
I watched this recently and thought it was worthy enough to watch youtube content about it. it was very flawed, but in an age where no one takes risks in movies this was decent if not predictable.
What is so genius, is Bower wasn't actually suffering from pandorum. What he was feeling was the affects of being deep under water for too long. Gallows was in his head at the end, making him believe he was suffering from the illness. Also, the things mutation was accelerated from dwelling in the reactor chamber, thus the no body hair appearance. And the aquatic blue skin was a mixture of radiation and the dampness caused from the elysium sitting in the depth of Tanis ocean. Brilliant writing an instant classic.
actually being in water turns human skin white. what turns human skin blue is breathing pure nitrogen. which is why the avatar kitten people are blue. yes, if you breathe pure nitrogen you will die, but you will also turn blue, but for a different reason; lack of oxygen. i know right ;) oh yeah, and obviously the ship was pressurized so your 'bends' theory just doesn't float, in my opinion.
I loved how the mutants were a constant threat, like everyone was afraid of them the whole movie it really added an edge to it that kept me really invested. It took 3 humans to take down one, these things were no joke
I loved this movie and was surprised to see it had negative reviews. The ending where they surface from the ocean of the new planet is still one of favorites of all time, it's just so hopeful.
Yes! I love that. Death and despair and then at the end, new found hope and a new life. Really makes me want to see what happened after they emerged onto the planet. I think there’s a gigantic untapped resource right there if someone handled it correctly. Highly underrated. I want more movies like this. Creative and not so much about flash and thrills but still pulls at your heart the whole time.
Right like after 900 years ;crash landing in the ocean and surviving cannibal mutations, the human race lives on and finally starts on the new planet. Was dope
When I saw that scene I thought "oh that sucks for all the pods on the bottom of the ship. They probably crashed into the ocean floor". But then I realized they were probably designed to turn around and reach the surface in the event that the ship lands in the ocean.
This was good movie because after watching it immediately after i thought about a Robert Heinlein’s Orphans of the Sky, which has same plot. And including good sci-fi plot we have really good production!
I thought it was a great twist. Initially I must admit I didn't want to watch it when it came out (not a genre I'm really into) but this movie was actually really good.
yea well thats false, because in one movie, there is a supernatural aspect, "like opening a portal to hell" and the other, which is pure science based, " humans who have genetically evolved to become cannibalistic hunters in the bowels of a ship over 8 generations" .. i dont know "who" these people are belieiving that, but they couldnt be more wrong in their belief. One movie has no relation to the other, aside from some jump scares.
Mistah Bryan that’s what I mean go and watch it when you get a spare couple hours it’s really great I would genuinely say it is on par or even better than the first aliens movie, not as ground breaking but definitely as original.
but think/or imagine if you were first to wake up, could you establish your self as a leader, or a god on the new planet and pioneer your own religion?
@Darren Rice There was supposed to be a prequel and a sequel. Maybe events leading up to the launch of the ship and its malfunctioning and sinking in the water, and what happened after day one on the new planet?
@Darren Rice Of course the sequel wouldn't have dangerous cannibal mutants on a failing ship unless some of them managed to escape. There were many dangerous criminals, though. Earth is gone, so it could tell about humanity starting on a new planet, if they salvaged any technology or genetic samples from the ship, and if there were any other dangers to overcome on the new planet. A prequel could better explain what led to the ship's launch, and the destruction of Earth. I would like to see both if they ever made them.
I watched this movie on DVD too and I liked it a lot... I don't usually go after critics review because of the set criteria they have to work with... This movie definitely deserves a cult status....
Honestly the actual usefulness of critics has decreased significantly since the use of the internet as a method so anyone can give a review. It's devolved into a psuedo profession and they rarely seem to be able to make decent reviews nowadays
When Nadia said "Holy fuck" at the reactor's core, this line kinda blew my mind. These were such a good words to describe what Bower was doing at the bottom of the reactor. Just wow.
This is the very first movie I ever streamed. It was one of the first movies to stream on Netflix. Me and a few friends watched it on the original Xbox 360 Netflix app which actually allowed you to invite your friends to the movie through your friends list. You and your buddies Xbox live avatars would sit in front of the movie screen as if they were at a theatre and you could do emotes and goof around. Now that's a relic of streaming history.
Thanks for reuploading this. I stayed away from the movie because of reviews but my buddy convinced me to watch it. One of my favorite scifi movies now.
Pandorum felt like an 80s scifi similar to aliens. Then it dropped that concept for mental gymnastics for multiple plot twists. I was upset it stopped being thriller turned more into drama.
Agreed, great movie... I met Dennis Quaid once at a movie shoot he was on in San Pedro Ca. about 9 years ago. A down to Earth guy with that annoying "Actor Ego". I asked if we could talk about his roles in Pandorum and Wyatt Earp as Doc. Holliday. He enjoyed both roles but found that playing "Doc" was a little hard due to the weight had lost in order to appear gaunt. He had to self sequester when meal time came to help avoid craft services. We talked for about 10 or 15 minutes, it was good.
I watchee this movie with my stepdad a long time ago. I remember two scenes in particular. The first being being where that guy gets his throat cut by a child cannibal with a spear or other bladed weapon. I remember it so vividly because at the time i was afraid to watch Horror movies. And although i think this falls more under the umbrella of sci fi and survival in space, the dark atmosphere and psychological elements were almost too much for me to take at the time. Lucky for me we watched it during the day. But i remember that scene because of something he said to me. "Behind every sheep there is a lion" and that stuck with me. Even though i was a kid, i knew exactly what he meant by those words and that partially shaped me into the person I am today. Because i know not to trust or underestimate people based on their appearance. Because that same little boy you're hugging today could stab you in the back in the future. The other scene i remember quite more fondly is the cooking scene. And it's all due to one line.... "Taste kinda like uhh.... hmmm. Herb and buttered dog shit." When we first heard that line, my stepdad and i laughed for like a straight 2mins. I said to him laughing, "wait how does know what that tastes like?" And he said "well we don't know how long he's been on that ship!" Sometime later i asked him if he wanted to watch the movie again and he started grinning and said "wait you just wanna hear 'buttered dog shit' again!" And then we both started laughing. The only other time i can recall him laughing so hard was when we watched the medicinal fried chicken episode of south park. The part where Randy accidentally knocked his balls out of the wheelbarrow and started bouncing all the way home.
i cant stop rewatching this movie, i feel like watching it everyday, if i was a billionaire i would fund the prequel and sequels just for my personal view, i dont even care how well they do in box office
@@donpepe8440 Yup the praised the movie Sunshine i hated it for me it was just the fact that non of the characters even noticed a few details and even then they had a chance to win survive and get back home and well the last two decided oh well we just gonna stand inside of the "****" wrote it this way as to not set off red flags or warnings because even if we are talking about a movie people could be going crazy on purpose for just not liking what i said you know now a days so they decide to just stay there knowing what will happen for me they should have tricked character locked him in then released that **** into the sun and went back home not sure though
the premise of the movie was really interesting. just badly executed. if the script was put in the hands of a talented director, it would have easily been a huge hit
My simple little brain is too weak to bear and process all of the information packed in this movie. I watched it years before watching this explain. And I remember I was so scared, overwhelmed, and confused back then as well.
This movie is so fukn good, honestly the only other sci-fi horror films that are better would be alien, aliens and predator (oh yeah almost forgot about Sunshine and Event Horizon, those are great as well)
Thanks for the re-upload! I thought I remembered seeing a video by you already for this one. Either way, I loved this film when I first saw it. Very underrated, indeed.
That's one of many reasons I don't listen to the film critics or any other negative comments. This happens to be one of my favorite films of all time. Movies rarely scare me anymore, but there are occasions such as this film. Guess I'm part of a cult now!!! Great review and really like your channel, thanks!
I rate this magnificent film alongside Alien and The Thing as one of the top ten scariest Scifi Horrors of all time! Very few films get your heart pumpimg like this film did on first viewing!
hey niyat hope youre doling better! just wanted to say thanks for doing some content on pandorum, it is easily one of my favorite films. i was but a young lad when this movie came out and i just bat dead space 1, so the locked on a ship horror vibe of this film was perfect!
@FilmComicsExplained Thank you so much for detailing this extremely *underrated* movie! I mean its pretty much Dead Space/Doom-esque scifi galore but on a movie theatre, captures the humans desperate momments on a stranded(?!) ship
it is very underrated movie. never get old and i always rewatch it a few time after i got no movie left to watch and it still amaze me how good it really is.
Great movie, awesome premise and very suspenseful with a nice twist at the end. The creatures from this perturbed me too. They're look like a Cave Crawler from the Descent fucked a Necromorph.
This movie surprised the hell outta me when I first saw it. I'll have to watch it again sometime because of how good this video was. Keep it up my dude 👍
This was//is a great movie, Event Horizon is similar. Nice as this movie isn't a big franchise pic, a break from the Alien, Star wars, Star trek offerings. Holds up well
When I played Dead Space, it reminded me of this film and it was one of my favorites. I know Dead Space took inspiration more from Event Horizon but still one of the best space horror films out there.
I loved the movie, amazing concept and it was a total “mind fcuk” when the shutter door opened, I had to rematch the movie twice to truly grasp it but it was awesome!
I feel like it would need more time to do the “freakers” since the game just came out and people need time to find all the info about them in the game, unless it was also a past comic or something I just don’t know about
My favorite sci fi movie. Very memorable, watched many times. Very very underrated by so-called movie critics. Hopefully will become an iconic sci-fi movie of all times.
I use you videos as a review for movies to actually watch. More times than not, I'm pausing the video mid way and checking hulu/ netflix. Great stuff 👍
I watched it many years ago and it’s still stuck in my mind. Loved the twist ending, I thought the plot was well thought out and the thrill was definitely there. A good movie. Really underrated.
This has become one of my favorite movies, mainly because I had no idea what to expect when I first watched it and ended up being pleasantly surprised.
It's one of those under the radar gems. It definitely spoke to my trashy tastes but also my appreciation of psychological horror. Could have been better in some points, but overall, I'd say it's worth its time. Also as a Berlin resident I felt flattered seeing the Brandenburg Gate in the background (at 0:34).
I find the best movies, especially Science Fiction are sadly underrated, unfairly critizied and misunderstood. The bad ratings send me straight for the theaters. This was absolutely a fantastic film, like a book you can't put down I didn't even want to pause it to use the restroom I was locked in from start to finish!
This movie was great. Tripped me out when I learned that those troglodyte freaks were actually what the humans had become. And then even more when the doors open and there are no stars. Movie critics must get bribed to give good ratings and Pandorum didnt pay up.

i cant stop rewatching this movie, i feel like watching it everyday, if i was a billionaire i would fund the prequel and sequels just for my personal view, i dont even care how well they do in box office
Me too
Critics: Bad Movie
Me: I don't give a fuuuck
Yup that is usually me too
If critics say its bad its usually the opposite same goes with them praising something
@@donpepe8440 Yup the praised the movie Sunshine i hated it for me it was just the fact that non of the characters even noticed a few details and even then they had a chance to win survive and get back home and well the last two decided oh well we just gonna stand inside of the "****" wrote it this way as to not set off red flags or warnings because even if we are talking about a movie people could be going crazy on purpose for just not liking what i said you know now a days so they decide to just stay there knowing what will happen for me they should have tricked character locked him in then released that **** into the sun and went back home not sure though
yep, but this one is bad. I like it too, but just 'cos there isn't anything better.
the premise of the movie was really interesting. just badly executed. if the script was put in the hands of a talented director, it would have easily been a huge hit
Another reason I never listen to the so called "Critics" reviews! This movie was great!
Pandorum and event horizon are my two favourite spaceship movies
Can you recommend some other movies?
Just watched both of them this weak
@@Akhtar93 alien
"bunch of prisoners sent to another planet"
Me: So... Australia ????
...in space
@@SamuelBlack84 under water mate
My simple little brain is too weak to bear and process all of the information packed in this movie. I watched it years before watching this explain. And I remember I was so scared, overwhelmed, and confused back then as well.
This movie is so fukn good, honestly the only other sci-fi horror films that are better would be alien, aliens and predator (oh yeah almost forgot about Sunshine and Event Horizon, those are great as well)
Aliens is mostly a terrible film... mostly ;)
Hork Porkler how dare you.
You have good tastes
Sunshine ,man
Thanks for the re-upload! I thought I remembered seeing a video by you already for this one. Either way, I loved this film when I first saw it. Very underrated, indeed.
That's one of many reasons I don't listen to the film critics or any other negative comments. This happens to be one of my favorite films of all time. Movies rarely scare me anymore, but there are occasions such as this film. Guess I'm part of a cult now!!! Great review and really like your channel, thanks!
I rate this magnificent film alongside Alien and The Thing as one of the top ten scariest Scifi Horrors of all time!
Very few films get your heart pumpimg like this film did on first viewing!
hey niyat hope youre doling better! just wanted to say thanks for doing some content on pandorum, it is easily one of my favorite films. i was but a young lad when this movie came out and i just bat dead space 1, so the locked on a ship horror vibe of this film was perfect!
The speech about insanity and the freedom of letting go in this movie was amazing.
People here saying it's underrated. Man, I wish I watched this movie sooner. I don't know anything about this movie!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!! I have seen the movie many times and yet there ' were' lot of gaps and unanswered questions that you have answered.
Not an all time great movie, but a really underrated sci-fi film. At times it was fantastic.
I always liked this movie and I had hoped there would be a follow up about the world they went to.
Love your vids ❤ Keep up the awesome works!
This film really was fantastic- I loved the visuals and setting
@FilmComicsExplained Thank you so much for detailing this extremely *underrated* movie!
I mean its pretty much Dead Space/Doom-esque scifi galore but on a movie theatre, captures the humans desperate momments on a stranded(?!) ship
To this day Pandorum is still one of my favorite sci-fi survival horror films! I would love to see a Prequel!
Yeeeeeeessssss! This was one of ny favorite movies growing up. My online name is based off it! Thank you soo much for exploring this one!
This was really an amazing movie. I have watched it many times. A series would be good to watch.
I was like Pandorum again!? Then I thought ,"who cares". And proceeded to watch the video lol
Me too lol
Pandorum is one of the missed hits I love. This movie deserves so much more love then it got.
Basically suffered the same fate as Event Horizon, two amazing sci-fi movies that were badly reviewed when released but were appreciated much later.
I so wish I could have seen the original cut of Event Horizon.
it is very underrated movie. never get old and i always rewatch it a few time after i got no movie left to watch and it still amaze me how good it really is.
Same I love it so much. The creep just don't wear out even though you already know what's gonna happen. I love it !
Same here lol and event horizon
I found this gem of a movie a week ago, its definitely something i will watch again with some friends.
Love these videos. Whenever I watch a movie, I find myself more interested in how the circumstances of the movie came to be.
Great movie, awesome premise and very suspenseful with a nice twist at the end. The creatures from this perturbed me too. They're look like a Cave Crawler from the Descent fucked a Necromorph.
One of my favorite sci-fi movies of all time, with an insane twist.
This needs a sequel, bring Ben back
Just watched it expecting very little, only because I found it in Tubi, but was greatly and happily surprised.
Oh snap I’m early ! I thought this was a old upload with TH-cam’s odd recommendation recommending it to me again.
I just looked up Pandorum Explained and was expecting a video that was 10 years old... but I got a recent video! Thanks!
That was a brilliant overview. I found a movie i somehow missed, that I'm clearly going to love, so thanks. ✌
It’s true, it’s a bloody good movie
This movie surprised the hell outta me when I first saw it. I'll have to watch it again sometime because of how good this video was. Keep it up my dude 👍
This was//is a great movie, Event Horizon is similar. Nice as this movie isn't a big franchise pic, a break from the Alien, Star wars, Star trek offerings. Holds up well
I agree completely and am so grateful that you have brought attention to this forgotten jem 😄
When I played Dead Space, it reminded me of this film and it was one of my favorites. I know Dead Space took inspiration more from Event Horizon but still one of the best space horror films out there.
I loved the movie, amazing concept and it was a total “mind fcuk” when the shutter door opened, I had to rematch the movie twice to truly grasp it but it was awesome!
Next video, you should try explain the zombie virus or the "freakers" from Days gone
Honestly that would be awesome
I feel like it would need more time to do the “freakers” since the game just came out and people need time to find all the info about them in the game, unless it was also a past comic or something I just don’t know about
The let's player I'm watching is like 30 half hour episodes in and the source and method of infection hasnt been revealed yet aha
My favorite sci fi movie. Very memorable, watched many times. Very very underrated by so-called movie critics. Hopefully will become an iconic sci-fi movie of all times.
I really liked the movie as well. It's atmosphere and plot twists had me re-
watch it a couple of times since.
I use you videos as a review for movies to actually watch. More times than not, I'm pausing the video mid way and checking hulu/ netflix. Great stuff 👍
My god a horror sci fi with a great ending how have I not seen this
It’s an amazing ending and just movie altogether! Check it out ! Use look movies or flixtor
I watched it many years ago and it’s still stuck in my mind. Loved the twist ending, I thought the plot was well thought out and the thrill was definitely there. A good movie. Really underrated.
I just noticed that this movie is basically dead space. The ship. The insanity and the atmosphere. Right?
I stumbled across this movie by accident and I’m glad. Has become a favorite of mine over the last 8-9 years.
Bruh I remember accidentally watching this a kid and my dead ass is so scared but kept watching till the end because its so good lol
This has become one of my favorite movies, mainly because I had no idea what to expect when I first watched it and ended up being pleasantly surprised.
Hey bro love the videos...this was a bad ass movie..and this reupload is dope
brilliant movie.
watched it 5 times.
can't understand why it isn't more popular 👍
This is one of my favorite scifi films, to the point of watching it rather often since first seeing it.
This is like one of my all time favorite movies.
1:07 Is it just me, or does that look like P-Body and Atlas from Portal 2?
Always liked this flick. It IS confusing at first but a rewatch fixes that.
A good one to rewatch every once and a while
It's one of those under the radar gems. It definitely spoke to my trashy tastes but also my appreciation of psychological horror. Could have been better in some points, but overall, I'd say it's worth its time.
Also as a Berlin resident I felt flattered seeing the Brandenburg Gate in the background (at 0:34).
Pandorum is a very good, well-made movie, it would be nice to see some pre-quals showing what happened before, maybe even the launch of the ship
One of the best sci/fi horror movies I've seen maybe not perfect in execution but well written and a twist no one will see coming
Such an underrated gem.
One of my favorites but underrated drastically
I find the best movies, especially Science Fiction are sadly underrated, unfairly critizied and misunderstood. The bad ratings send me straight for the theaters. This was absolutely a fantastic film, like a book you can't put down I didn't even want to pause it to use the restroom I was locked in from start to finish!
This movie was great. Tripped me out when I learned that those troglodyte freaks were actually what the humans had become. And then even more when the doors open and there are no stars.
Movie critics must get bribed to give good ratings and Pandorum didnt pay up.
i like waching pandorum after event horizon
Off today and Bingewatching all of your videos. Thank you
