Review of Riddick (2013) by Sgt. C — 17 Apr 2014

(57%).

As sci-fi B-movies go, this is pretty good. The opening half hour featuring badass in space Vin fighting for survival is a highlight, with its lack of dialogue and inventive looking monsters. The plot itself is generic and very simplistic, so too the cartoonish characters, but the movie's scaled down ambition works, and any fan of the series, along with sci-fi fans in general, should take at least something from this decent little movie that was better than I first thought it was going to be.
