A lot of interesting ideas in search of a film

Rating: 4/10 (3 November 2000)

While Pitch Black has a number of interesting, innovative takes on the SciFi - Thriller genre (specifically Aliens and Predator) the script and (in every case other than Vin Diesel) the actors can't quite seem to pull it off.
I would recommend this film to SciFi / Fantasy fans, but it would simply be to see some of the tweaks to convention that they use. If you want to see a tightly woven yet complex SciFi plot, go rent Aliens again.
