AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

celiacampbell I am not a real critic but I am a huge fan of Vin Diesel and this series! If you are a fan then you will like it or love it. For me, it gives you a new insight into the first movie, Pitch Black. The movie also brings everything full circle. I highly recommend it! One of my favorites in the series!

mrmut This movie is a brilliant machistic comedy. When I first watched it, I laughed my a** off, as I couldn't believe a character in a movie is a bigger hot shot than Chuck Norris. :)If you watch such movies seriously, this will probably be a piece of trash for you, but with a good sense of humor this will be a superb comedy (without ever trying to be one!).

Camelot_2000 I saw this continuation of the "Riddick" series at the theatre with my friend when it first came out even though she truly wanted to see a horror flick playing at the screen next door. She seemingly enjoyed it and I'm glad I dragged her into it though she was somewhat feeling unwillingly.You see, I was a major fan of "Pitch Black" and the subsequent movies to follow and I felt the need to check out this newest instalment of the "dangerous planet" action adventure. It truly did deliver and Vin Diesel showed what fans expected, but you can't help, but feel it's giving another retread of the first film.Those desert, sometimes infernal, worlds really are inhospitable places to be and Riddick, without fail, always conquers that. He knows how to fight and kill anything- no matter how lethal - to come his way, but I felt something more 'newer', "unexpected" and "more challenging" would have sufficed. There were no surprises here.The characters were extremely likable though, with "Boss Johns" the bitter father holding a grudge against Riddick for killing his son in a previous film, but later forgives him after Riddick saves his life. The heartwarming moment was when they fly out of that hellish world in different spaceships and Johns blocks Riddick's to say goodbye. Luna, the young guy on Johns' crew, stands next to Johns and listens to what Riddick says about forgiveness and how we "all eventually have to head home".Obvious to see that Johns had another young guy (Luna) to replace the son he bitterly lost and that all concerned had reached a resolution of sorts. A very pleasing finale.

Son-of-WRA I'm usually very forgiving when it comes to sci-fi, but sometimes there's nothing to build that forgiveness upon. When a franchise returns to its roots, the film risks self-plagiarism and comes off as lazy and tapped out of ideas. This was simply a remake of "Pitch Black" and it fell limp as a dead fish. There was no flow to the story and the plot was simply a hole the entire production should have been buried in.When "The Chronicles of Riddick" was panned, I thought the critics were crazy. When they did so again for this film, I thought that I was going to like it. About fifteen minutes in I knew it was going to be a bore-fest. I highly DON'T recommend this movie.
