      Movie Info

      Left for dead on a sun-scorched planet, fugitive Riddick (Vin Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he has yet encountered. His only hope for escape is to activate an emergency beacon, but that brings with it a different problem: mercenaries. The first ship carries an especially violent and lethal group; the second is led by a man from Riddick's past. With time running out, Riddick realizes that neither group will leave without his head as trophy.

        The third Pitch Black film "Riddick" is much more focused than its predecessor and a welcome return to the formula that worked so well for the original movie. Riddick is a bad-ass survivalist fighting an extinction level event that threatens everybody, with an assembly cast that is colorful and fun to watch.

        After it looked like The Chronicles Of Riddick had killed off any chance of a sequel with bad reviews and low box office numbers we finally got a third part and I'm so glad we did, I liked the first two but never really got me that interested, But this one is the best yet, Its story is good and gripping with some great action scenes plus this time the effects were pretty good, It's nothing new but breathes new life into the Riddick films, It won't win over any new fans but it will more than make loyal fans happy.

        The definition of "nothing to write home about": pretending way too much to be cool while being entirely predictable and set in a really fake environment. There are glimpses of decent world-building and it's overall never boring, but not particularly interesting either.

        Just so very average.
