Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Claudio Carvalho "Riddick" is an action sci-fi movie with the return of Riddick. The story is entertaining and simple with top-notch special effects. Riddick is left alone in an arid planet with predators. His only way out is activating an emergency beacon that alerts two groups of mercenaries that land on the planet with their spaceships to chase Riddick. There are many funny moments and quotes and for fans it is worthwhile watching. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Riddick 3"

Spikeopath 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

Python Hyena Riddick (2013): Dir: David Twohy / Cast: Vin Diesel, Jordi Molla, Matthew Nable, Katee Sackhoff, Dave Bautista: They should have named the title character Ridiculous for all the nonsense he has been through with three stupid films. We have a world of visual effects and creatures that wouldn't be any more believable than if they were shipped from Sesame Street complete with the letter "R." Vin Diesel once again portrays Riddick whom he played twice before and he seeks refuge from enemies out to take his head. Of course, he is sought after and a lot of pointless ass kicking follows with a lot of under developed characters meeting a nasty end when deadly creatures emerge at night. Riddick has special glasses and eye sight that allows him to see in the dark. Unfortunately for Diesel it doesn't prevent him from reading a terrible script that also includes his less than inspiring narration. Director David Twohy is skilled but has wasted time on three of these useless projects when his talent was accompanied with a better script with the underrated and suspenseful The Perfect Getaway. Besides Diesel the rest of the cast portray mainly faceless imbeciles with a knack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time when it comes to survival. Just like Pitch Black this manages to be every bit as pointless and stupid, and it carries on the whole theme of people doing stupid things that ultimately result in their mindless death. Perhaps the best way to deal with a film like this is to shove it deep into a trash compactor and hope that it eventually recycles into a better film. Or at least a sardine can. Score: 2 / 10

Terryfan Riddick is one of the most powerful and dangerous characters ever created. Riddick is just one of those interesting Anti-Heroes.Vin Diesel is the only man who could bring this character to life and he puts his heart and soul into the character.Once Vin Diesel got the rights to Riddick he went to work on making this film.However I have to say I was kind of let down with this film. Mostly because it felt like Pitch Black 1.5 if you compare the two movies together you will see there is more than enough to clearly say they are pretty much close to being the same film just with different cast members.Such as Matt Nable Katee Sackhoff, Jordi Molla, Dave Bautista, Karl Urban and others. The visual setting is what you would expect from Riddick to match the tone of the character and you could always be sure the darkness is where Riddick shines.Also the film feature some creative quotes and good effects which makes the film watchable. But where the film is disappointing is that the fact the film really feels too much like Pitch Black no this is not a Reboot no no no it just feels like Pitch Black Plus the film does get graphic at times so be warn. Being R rated is understandableAnother plus is there is tense moments in the film which is part of the series history and some good acting can be found here in the filmWhile there is something for all Riddick fans it just feels like there is so much more that could have gone into the film but to be fair they at least try to make it a improvement over The Chronicles of Riddick I give Riddick an 6 out of 10
