Saw Riddick today. I loved it. I hear it's been getting all these bad reviews but doesn't sci-fi always get screwed over by critics?
Alright here's my review:
*Loved the special effects. It's been a while since I've seen them done to well in a movie like that.
*Loved the way the movie tied in with the first. I've never seen Pitch Black all the way through but I still loved it.
*Loved Kyra. I thought she was a kick ass character and really complemented Riddick. She was kind of the female version of him with a little more emotion attached. It was all good.
*The bad guys were great. That idea hasn't been used much so they were fresh and the armor was awesome.
*Vin in a black tank...hell yeah, that's all I have to say. With that voice, it's enough to make you melt.
*All in all I'd give it a 8/10 simply because I think they could have done more with Kyra's character and Riddick's past. The dialogue wasn't great but the action was so good that you really didn't care. If you like Pitch Black, Vin Diesel, or Action/ Sci-fi movies, this is the movie for you. It was rockin'.
