An interesting sci-fi movie

Rating: 8/10 (22 October 2000)

While browsing my video store, I picked up a copy of Pitch Black. I heard of 1 or 2 folks who had seen it and made a decent comment on it. After watching it (for the 3rd time now) I would definately recommend this movie to anyone else. I've seen better movies about "evil in outerspace" but I've also seen alot worse too. This movie had a decent plot and an excellent cast. Not only did they have the nocturnal aliens to fight with, but there were excellent conflicts created within the group of humans trying to get off this planet. I especially like the conflict built up between Johns and Riddick. Vin Diesel was an excellent choice for the role of Riddick.
If you're looking for a good sci-fi movie, definately pick this one up; although, not for the kids. There is much gore in this movie that may be very scary for younger childern.
