The Ship Looks Creepy, That's About It!

Rating: 6/10 (9 October 2017)

I wonder if this movie was intended as a horror or just a dark sci-fi because there wasn't anything really creepy except for the look of the ship Event Horizon - its face resembles that alien from the Ridley Scott movies! The effects are quite good and there's also tense moments when the rescue crew docks with the ship and goes in to check for survivors. The performances are OK but I felt the choice of actors could have been better - Laurence Fishburne and Same Neill are the only ones who really held my attention. Some scenes confuse especially how a certain dead character comes back and attack the rest of the survivors. With the effects and the atmosphere they attempted to create, this movie had lots of box-office potential but failed to deliver as expected. Verdict - with lots of misses than hits, there was nothing much even Laurence Fishburne could do to save Event Horizon(ship or the movie)...a forgettable, one-time watch.
