I was pleasantly surprised.

Rating: 6/10 (22 December 2003)

Having seen the coming attractions for Chronicles of Riddick and learning that the main character is based upon the main character in Pitch Black, I rented it having never heard of it. Never expecting much from Vin Diesel, I was very surprised to have really enjoyed the movie. In some ways reminiscent of Tremors, I thought the story was gripping, character development was better than average, direction was excellent, and Vin actually brought some credibility to the character.
