Rotten
Alvart achieves a strong sense of scale, but characters and ideas are lost amid a mess of fight scenes that, oddly, look like outtakes from 'The Descent'.

The script's twisty, end-of-the-world intrigue saves this otherwise leaden film from total self-destruction.
Michelle Orange, L.A. Weekly
Rotten
As the credit "Produced by Paul W.S. Anderson" attests, this is hackwork of the highest order, lacking in all poetry and barely comprehensible aurally or visually.
Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York

According to the press notes, pandorum means "Orbital Dysfunctional Syndrome"; whatever that is, by the end of the movie I was convinced I had caught it.
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Rotten
A grizzled Quaid and an intense Foster do their best to keep straight faces, but this is not an effort likely to figure prominently on their resumes.
