Great, great action flick.

Rating: 9/10 (22 October 2000)

This movie is one of the most pleasant surprises I have bumped into in years. The director and the actors are all unknowns except I only faintly remembered the leading actor Vin Diesel from Saving Private Ryan. The actors all do great, especially Vin Diesel who completely captures the screen with his confident act, he is full of the good old fashion attitude we have only seen so often, the only one I have seen displaying this kind of attitude is Arnold Schwarzenegger as the Terminator. Diesel is fed with lines which are on the borderline of being cliches but he makes them pure bad-ass. I have also seen Keith David before as an extra in like a gasillion movies. What impressed me also very much about this movie was the use of colors and the lighting. The direction is solid and together with all the elements mentioned before we have a solid thrill ride put together by professionals. This movie proofs you don't need big names to make big movies.
Pitch Black: 9/10
