and it`s glowing...from AICN`s Moriarty, who writes well, (unlike Harry), and whose opinions you can trust: "Mark my words...Riddick is something special" http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=17719 Can`t wait!!

Yeah it is a good review for The Chronincles of Riddick and I cant wait to see this film as I am hoping its as good as I have heard! I am anoyed that yet again the UK release is about 2 months after the US release but it does mean that I can pick up the Region 1 DVD sooner. It was 2nd in the US box office behind the unstoppable Harry Potter this weekend but thta was expected! The delay in the release of this has nearly annoyed me as much as having to wait 6 months untill Hellboy is released in the UK!

And the film companies wonder why people turn to bootlegs to see the films.
EDIT Just saw this on IMDB
Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violent action and some language. (edited for re-rating) floyd
I seem to recall Rotten Tomatoes also gives it a pretty low rating. That`s if you care what critics think :p

My favourite review site, Ruthless Reviews, hated it so much that they refused to call it by its real name. They referred to it as `The Rotten S***-Fest` throughout the whole of the review.

Just read the Ruthless Review, I now might give it a rent, in the "it`s sounds so bad, it might be quite funny" kind of way.

i have just watched it last night, although i thought the original was so-so i was impressed with the special CGI space ship FX and the fights where good too. it not that bad but it does star Vin Diesel...(who keeps throwing money into his movies?) i can see why it hasent done so well though it does have its flaws..

I watched it last night. Its the sort of High Concept Sci-Fi thing i usually like, but it was pretty lame.
It was cliche ridden and, i think, it suffered from me watching pitch black. Seeing Riddicks character so castrated (to get a PG rating) was just crap, to be honest.
Ok. Not bad. C -.
and after reading the Ruthless Review, i couldnt stop laughing when Necrophiliacs were going on about Breeders.
