Vin Diesel, as we all remember him, Tough, hard and without mercy, the bad guy you hate to love or was it the other way around?

Rating: 9/10 (10 June 2003)

This is no ordinary movie, not one bit. In fact, it is one of the most exiting movies I have ever seen in quite some time. It starts when a ship filled with convicted criminals and tourists crashes on a lifeless planet with three suns. They are forced to adapt to the harsh planet fast, or they will die. Even after they adapted themselves, their continuance of life is not a fact. When darkness falls the monsters appear. When mysterious deaths and the use of every possible help they can get, they release the chains of convicted murderer Richard B Riddick ; Whos eyes was surgically enhanced when told he was never to see light again so long as he lived ; Played superbly by actor Vin Diesel which made a real breakthrough with this movie. This saga contains everything, betrayal, plotting, and the uncertainty of which really the bad guy is. This movie is borne by the magnificent work by the director David N. Twothy. It never grow dull or predictable. Techincally the film is very good, the three suns shining bright, the pitch darkness and the monsters that overwhelm the planet with their horrific sounding ultra-sound they use to 'see'. It fits under the genre Horror/Sci-Fi/Thriller which in other words mean that it is extremely thrilling and entertaining. The elaborate special effects,amazing story and great acting makes this movie a must see.
