Movie day was brought foward to today. Watched Pandorum (creator of Resident Evil) with Olivia and Pamela.
"Two astronauts awaken in a hyper-sleep chamber aboard a seemingly abandoned spacecraft. It’s pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the spacecraft. They can’t remember anything – who are they, what is their mission? The only way out of the chamber is a dark and narrow airshaft. Corporal Bower (Foster), the younger of the two, crawls inside, while the other, Lt. Payton (Quaid), stays behind for guidance on a radio transmitter. As Bower ventures deeper and deeper into the ship, he begins to uncover a terrifying reality. Slowly the spacecraft’s shocking and deadly secrets come unraveled, and the astronauts realize that the survival of mankind hinges on their actions."
The 'thing' who made the creak sound is the aliens or some mutants which i cannot tell. The movie doesn't say how or where does this creatures came or evolved from, they only mentioned that their already here long ago. The spacecraft is build by the humans as the earth is going to be destroyed and it's impossible for humans to live in anymore and so they are heading to a new planet called the "Tanis". Their mission is to find the reactor core and operate again, so they could land the spacecraft. When they finally manage to, they discover that they already had landing in the waters or Tanis. The spacecraft had already landed 900years ago. While fighting off the creatures, Bower accidentally broke the glass and water came flooding it. He and another girl, whose name i had forgotten, rushed into the pods and make themselves up to the waters along with the others who had not awoke. Therefore, now the population in Tanis is 1213.
There are some loop holes in the movie here and there. But if you don't discriminate the movie because of this, it can be quite good. As in the graphics and such.
Rating: 3.5/5
Ps: I think the creatures are mutated from human beings, remember that during hybernation, the fluids pumped into them contained an evolutionary accelerator which speeds up evolution. After they crashed, some humans woke up evolved to suit their environment with despair as they can't escape the spacecraft and didn't had food to eat, ie dark, trapped etc. So i think 900years is enough for the humans to mutate and thus to breed into this many.
