Description

Vin Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick in the latest chapter of the groundbreaking saga. A dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy, Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for him to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty. With time running out and a deadly storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won’t leave the planet without Riddick’s head as their trophy. Also starring Katee Sackhoff (TV’s Battlestar Galactica), Karl Urban (Star Trek Into Darkness) and Dave Bautista (WWE).

    I liked Pitch Black and the Chronicles of Riddick but the addition of more Mercs, heavier focus on Riddick and another unusual, deadly planet made this one my favorite. It is stunning in HD. Can’t say more without ruining the surprises of the movie.

    Maybe just me but I really like the whole "Riddick" saga. i enjoy each of the movies as each have there own depth and I like the connection to the other movies. Karl Urban would be nice to see a 4th movie IF they make it. The Necromonga name is kind of lame and they should have chosen some other name for those planet killer guys, but they will have to live with it now. The second movie, I thought was really good. Not sure why everyone likes Pitch Black over the other two, but in total this is a very good franchise. Rent or buy it & you will enjoy it IF you are a true "Riddick" fan like me. I'll take these over the Fast & furious movies that Vin has done.

    I'll admit this is a character I wouldn't mind seeing more of, but not if this is the way they're going to do it. I'll further admit that I end up watching Vin Diesel stuff. I've been waiting for the better part of a decade for him to do something that's actually worth watching…. One of the many reasons Pitch Black was great, and the sequels are drek is that Riddick wasn't required to carry the whole movie in Pitch Black. Without some added depth or interest, he's not a sufficient character to carry the narrative, and the screenwriter's attempts to add internal conflict in this outing are unintentionally laughable. Speaking of laughable: NecroMongers? Really?

    I have loved the Riddick movies, even when the screen writing was not the best.

    I have enjoyed Vin Desiel's work and bought this early because I was looking for his character overcomming again. I was stressed to no end with the idiot screen writers insertion of the F bomb and etc. in nearly ever scene. The plot and Vin needs no crap added to make it better. If you can ignore the screen writers crap you will enjoy the movie.
  • If you liked the first 2 Riddick movies, you'll like this one.

    The Riddick franchise is one of my favorite semi-guilty pleasures, so I may be a little generous with my rating. There were a lot of things that I didn't particularly like about this movie (there were some pretty gnarly gore scenes--even more graphic than the unrated version of Pitch Black; I really got turned off by how some of the really inappropriate comments leveled at the lesbian character were handled; plot-wise, it's basically a combination of the first two movies; too many unanswered questions; oh, and not nearly enough Vaako), but overall I actually really enjoyed it. I think it's mostly just because I like the character of Riddick, and I feel like there's still story to be told. Hopefully, someday, they'll actually get to that point before Vin Diesel is too old to continue portraying Riddick.
