My two cents:
Pandorum: entertaining, predictable, bad movie physics, not believable. Overall, watchable and entertaining.

Zombieland: Very funny, good zombie plot, fun and likable characters, good action. Suspend belief, go enjoy. I really liked this one.

Blindness: Just sucks. It sucks royally. It sucks big nasty suckiness. Avoid at all cost. Stupid characters, nonsensical plot, illogical world, horrible camera work. No redeeming quality at all. Did I mention is sucked!

Ok, given your recommendation I will try at some point. I hope some things do make more sense in the book (although based on the movie, they couldn't make less!).

However, given how many books I've seen completely butchered, it's probably worth a shot.
