Perfect cast and a good story

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Left for dead on a sun-scorched planet, Riddick finds himself up against an alien race of predators. Activating an emergency beacon alerts two ships: one carrying a new breed of mercenary, the other captained by a man from Riddick's past. Riddick is easily the best entry in this Trilogy of Vin Diesel as an anti-hero "daredevil" and besides a bit slow pacing here and there and some scenes that are kind of cheesy (like the box and the head) this movie has some terrific special effects, really cool action, a fight between Vin with some aliens and Bautista and fans of the series will definitely have a good time. (7.5/10)

This flick got off to an extremely dull, draggy, boring start, and improved only very slightly, with a couple of bouts of heavy action & violence. I found the lead character, whom I refer to as Riddick-ulous, totally implausible and silly. I did like the machinery, the guns, and the nifty space scooters. One VERY major objection I have to this movie is the outrageously excessive use of the "F" word. No, it is NOT macho or cool to throw in an eff or an effing in almost every other sentence. I took two points off because of the obscenities. BAD writing! The female character Dahl was pretty cool. I'd liked to have seen her as the lead, instead of the rather odd "Diesel". Sorry, but I cannot recommend this flick. 2/10.

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!).

Unsurprisingly reactions to this, the third outing for Vin Diesel's sci-fi based anti-hero, has been very mixed. In truth it's hardly a great film of the "must see" kind, and it does in fact cleave very close to Pitch Black, the first and most superior of the Riddick trilogy. However, there's a whole bunch of science fiction fun to be had here.Plot has Riddick left for dead on a inhospitable planet, where he finds himself up against some alien creatures. His only hope of getting off the planet is to bring notice of his whereabouts, which brings two ships to where he is. Both with crews who have differing reasons for wanting to capture the enigmatic convict...And thus we get a beautifully filmed sci-fier that features beasties of both the human and alien kind. Action and moody histrionics are never far away, and Diesel is wonderfully muscular, macho, course and scary. Some of the CGI is weak, and naturally much of the film's coincidences and contrivances have to be forgiven if one wants a popcorn and beer good time of it. 7/10
