Additional Thanks
Thank you to Director Jeff Wadlow for directing effort. Thank you to Producers Craig Baumgarten and David Zelon for making the film possible. Cast includes Sean Faris, Amber Heard, Cam Gigandet, Evan Peters, Leslie Hope, and Djimon Hounsou.
Buy a
ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes. There is some inappropriate material in the movie. But the movie turns into a good film watch.
Pandorum—not relevant—seems loosely written and slightly jarring from scene to scene at times, due to poorly executed transitioning. This movie gets complicated and hard to follow at times also. It relies on the 'big reveal' at the end to carry the whole story.

Sixty
thousand humans are sent to Planet Tanis. They are sleep-induced for the

curious survival methods including cannibalism and violence against those of
their own species.
Additional Thanks
Thank
you to Director Christian Alvart for directing efforts. Thank you to Executive
Producers for making the film possible. Additional characters/cast include:
Payton (Dennis Quaid), Bower (Ben Foster), Gallo (Cam Gigandet), Nadia (Antje
Traue), Manh (Cung Le), Leland (Eddie Rouse), Shepard (Norman Reedus), Hunter
Leader (André Hennicke), and Evalon (Friederike Kempter).
Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
No. It
could be skipped for better sci-fi films like
2001: A Space Odyssey or Europa Report. Pandorum has a weak story and an okay portrayal.
