Pros: it's a space movie
Cons: it's a hopeless indulgence in lurid evil
It's also predictable --especially for a nihilist. An example of "gratuitous ________________" (fill in the blank).
It is essentially a great movie with a great plot. But it could have used more development. Ending was too abrupt . Should have been expanded.Nonetheless, I recommend watching it: good adrenalin rush.
what a waste of an interesting plot. Poor script. Boring.........
Without question the darkest feeling I've had watching a movie in a long time. The feeling of dread grows by the minute. Watching Sam Neil's character descend into the powerfull madness that is the Event Horizion was facinating.
A must see for the modern horror and Sci-fi junkie.

That's what I was wondering when I watched Event Horizon on the big screen. It seemed promising, but the ending was flat. Laurence Fishburne really carried out this movie.
Funny thing is that I keep thinking there was once an old movie with the same plot, but in sea and not in space.
This is an excelent movie to watch while in the movie theaters or in a movie theater setting, but if you are watching at home with your friends and family in front of a regular television set and don't have surround sound blasting in your ears you don't get the full effect of the movie. Everything in this movie is mind blowing, Lawrence Fishburne and Sam Niell give powerful preformances, the plot and setting is fresh and original, and the music really sets the mood of the scenes. If in the proper setting this movie will give you nightmares and make you think of things that you have never thought of before. Just watch it if you have the right set up for your house.
Alright, here is the thing.
Event Horizon is a
great movie. Technically, he is perfect. Very, very
well made.
It is a movie to the ones who loves to
listen histories about earth misteries, like that
history about two french guys who tried to reach the
earth center, and there was a moment when they heard
screams and whispers of pain and horror, right where they
couldn't dig.
It is a very scary movie also. That naked
woman without eyes send shivers through my spine
everytime I see her.
The main problem with the movie is
that the conclusion sucks. Oh common....that movie was
sooooo good. Why do we have to watch a hand entering in
someone's mouth and taking its stomach and heart? Or watch
someone without eyes shout "Liberarte-me!"? The latin
idea was preety smart, but oh man....why?
Why do
we have to watch so much gore after an extravagant
movie? People coming back.....I expected much
more.
The movie IS good. Don't listen to the ones who
didn't like it. But also don't listen to the ones who
thinks it's perfect. It is a good movie - an extravagant
movie - with a ridiculous ending.
Breathtakingly stunning in the
visual
department and with a great cast. However, more depth was
needed. I felt
like watching an edited version. It
needed a little bit more of a back-story
(the
original crew for instance) and
a little more meat on
the plot. But
even with these shortcomings, I
somehow feel mysteriously attracted to this movie due to
it's dark, gothic, and super-natural setting. It's
worth a peek
but it's not for the meek.

Takes science fiction in to the most secret and most hidden human fears. What will science lead to? Aren't we playing with something bigger than expected? Are we able to calculate all the effects of our actions?
Second scarriest movie next to The Exorcist. You'll either love or hate this one, and I'm definitely one of the former.
Great movie. Scared the hell out of me!
A great science fiction movie. Managed to have an interesting plot and it really is quite frightening. I definitely recommend it.
Started off great: interesting premise,
decent
stars (Neill and Fishburne),
interesting visuals
that managed
to haunt my dreams. But it
never
managed to go anywhere. Ends up
just being another
jump-out-and-scare-
you flick. No brain required.
