Jae-Hyeok (Kim Nam-Gil) lives with his mother (Kim Young-Ae), his sister-in-law (Moon Jeong-Hee) and nephew Min-Jae (Bae Gang-Yoo) in a small Korean town. He is dating Yeon-Joo (Kim Joo-Hyun), while working at the local nuclear power plant. Meanwhile, Pyung-Sub (Jung Jin-Young) works at the same nuclear power plant. He is worried about conditions there, but nobody in the government listens to him. An earthquake strikes the small town where Jae-Hyeok lives and causes explosions at the nuclear power plant.

What could go wrong, right? You have no chance of things blowing up and a catastrophe happening. "Pandora" would like to disagree with you.
The story of the people that work at and live around a nuclear power plant in South Korea, "Pandora" will strike a chord with the viewer, bring a tear to their eyes, and give some food for thought. However, a too long running time and a penchant for cheesy moments drag the story a little bit.
And it is a pity, because the critique of selfish governments, rushed up cover-ups is full of energy and you will fall for the alluring power of the rousing speeches and the incredible images, with a dark and broody atmosphere that permeates every frame.
