simply bad

Rating: 1/10 (5 March 2006)

'Pitch Black' is a science fiction thriller about a group of astronauts that find themselves stranded on a desserted planet with creatures that come out at dark and start killing off the astronauts one-by-one as they attempt to find a way off the planet. This film is a typical thriller, and if you enjoy this type of film, then you will probably enjoy this. In my opinion, the film was too slow-moving, and the action and attempt to create an emotional and frightening story just did not work. It had little to offer, and it was dull that the film took place in just one planet, in the darkness. It was also unrealistic in the sense that these creatures are living on the planet, but what do they feed on, besides the small group of stranded astronauts? Simply a bad film, but I don't like thrillers, so this may appeal to some.
