What's great about it: Great Special Effects, Good Acting, Worth the Money
Blend modern technology, a great cast, the definite possibility that it could happen, good plot twists, and fantastic film work and you have the crux of this feature. This just keeps maintaining and building tension from the start, has a good back story, and prompts you to think at times what you would do in the same situation. Fantastic acting from the main characters provides a very believable story and will have you going back more than once to see what you may have missed. Great to see in the theater it still looks remarkable on the home screen as well. A worthy investment for your collection.

What's great about it: Acting, Special Effects......Overall A Fantastic Movie
Riddick (Vin Diesel), an escaped convict wanted by humans and hunted by aliens, battles the harsh landscape of a scorched planet wherein he was left to die. This collection includes all three of the Riddick films (Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick, and Riddick), as well as WThe Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury.
OKAY...I WILL BE THE FIRST TO ADMIT IT....RIDDICK ROCKS...EVEN FOR AN OLD GUY. THIS IS A STRAIGHT UP ACTION FLICK WITH A CHARACTER THAN NO ONE BUT VIN DIESEL COULD PLAY. HE GETS TO BRING A LITTLE MORE LIFE TO THE CHARACTER WHILE STILL PLAYING THE ANTI-HERO AND EVEN MANAGES TO GET THE GIRL - ONLY THING THAT ANNOYED ME WAS THAT THE DOG DIED! PREDICTABLE...MAYBE...BUT IF YOU'RE A FAN...WHO CARES...AND ON TOP OF THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN FOR ANOTHER MOVIE. HOPEFULLY WILL SEE THEM EXPAND ON THE STORYLINE AS WELL AS THE HISTORY AND FATE OF FURYAN - MAYBE YOU CAN GO HOME?!

What's great about it: PITCH BLACK WITH MORE ATTITUDE!
What's not so great: NOTHING...AS LONG AS YOU ASK "SWEET LIKE"
Overall a fair adaptation of a novel, with reasonable acting but needed to be fleshed out a little more to keep the audiences attention. The acting was reasonable, with no stellar performances so again nothing to draw the watcher farther in than just the superficial storyline. Some of the special effects zero gravity shots were good and the battle sequences were fair to good, but again nothing outstanding. Is it worth watching....yes, but don't expect coming away wishing for a sequel.
