ITT: movies you thoroughly enjoyed yet were universally panned for reasons you can't comprehend.
>Pic related
>As close to a modern Event Horizon or 90's sci-fi gore classic as possible
>Good pacing, good acting, flawless visuals, original story, and practical effects over CGI
>Received an average rating of 2.5 on pretty much every review site
This was a good one, I wouldn't be surprised if it became a cult classic in a few years
I'm guessing people weren't actually paying attention to the details of the story, so it all went over their head. I've seen pandorum threads where people had to explain to other anons basic fucking shit about the plot, so I'm assuming most people that panned this just didn't /get it/
...
Pandorum was great. Check out Eden Log.
>people that panned this just didn't /get it/
>thinking this shit flick is too deep to comprehend
lol, you have to be kidding me.
Pandorum is the sequel of Alien covenant
I liked it too, OP. It was a fun ride.
Pic related is mine.
I loved this one.
Everything about it was fun.
I loved it too.
Don't get the hate.
was earth really destroyed? or did they made just made it up because of the pandorum?
Pandorum is great. Would recommend to everyone looking for a fun sci-fi movie.
Is this the one where they eventually end up kung fu fighting the killer mutants that have been chasing them the entire movie?
Pandorum is breddy gud even if the plot is bit too convoluted
Prove to me that you /get it/. In my experience detractors in these threads miss obvious exposition points that prove they didn't pay attention to the movie and then complained that it was stupid.

I'm still pissed at this movie because of the bait and switch the advertisement pulled
They made it out like people turn into monsters.
Even the poster is hinting at it.
He's transforming
"Fear what happens next"
But nope
they did transform into monsters, it just took many years of evolution
Well yeah, but that's not what the poster/trailer/advertisement said
>sterotypical bald cannibal human monsters that were all the rage in the latter 2000s
>camera acceleration to make everything look fast just made the film look cheap and nauseating
>predictable ending that the film is building toward leaves everything feeling flat not the pretty good undersea revelation, but the garbage with the characters
I thought the autopsy of jane doe was a really nice movie. Elegant and compact. Among this new slew of horror movies (get out, lights out, don't breathe) I think it's really the most underrated one.
What kind of monster hates this movie?
The only weak point of the movie was the creature design
If they went with something more Alien and less Mad Max the movie would have been a hit
I think most people just don't give it a chance, I certainly never did.
because the alien design hasnt been ripped off enough.
>Elegant and compact.
Maybe the first third. As soon as "shit goes down", it becomes fucking awful. That shit about accidentally axing the girlfriend was stupid as fuck.
Bunch of good imagery and ideas wasted on a garbage mass-produced horror production.
...
was going to post this
something about aryans and muslims in one place triggered hollywood jews
But how exactly did it warrant such shit scores? The effects were top notch, had proper actors in it, and even had decent pacing.
The lowest I'd believe would be a 5 from people who are "cinema critics", but a 2.5? That's Dragon Ball Evolution levels of shit.
Honestly I think a lot of people turned the movie off when the cannibals appeared
penis
>GoodBadFlicks: The Thread
I thought it was pretty good as well. Im biased a bit though since I think Ben Foster does well in most roles he's given.
oh yeah pandorum was pretty solid, only real negative were the mutants
"how did you learn our language?"
....
" I listened"
Love the movie though
that is exactly what I thought when I left the cinema :D
Maybe the concept and the imagery made me forget about the superfluous shit but I really think it had something going for it. It probably didn't need zombies or 1408 mind-fuckery but the idea of them stripping her body as if they were picking apart pandora's box and unleashing more evil as they went deeper really grabbed me. like one of those crime drama scenes but instead of finding scratch marks or whatever it was all occult symbols and unearthly signs of torture.
instead of zombies or whatever they've could've shown the parallel story of how she came to be burned.
Lo there do I see my father...
...
Wasn't the early criticism because of a shitty thetrical cut? I think I've only watched the director's cut, which supposedly is much better.
Why the hate for this pirate kino? It's a fun movie.
Nice trips, but who the fuck watched this and didnt like it? One of the best films this decade easily. Like holy fuck.
