There are many plot holes, an inappropriately overly complicated plot, and a lot of pointless aspects that never even bother to make the least bit of sense.

Riddick is a loner, Dottie, a rebel. He's a simple man, like Pee-Wee Herman, who is not concerned with getting the girl. But, unlike Pee-Wee, poor Riddick doesn't even have a bicycle for companionship.

Twohy gives the film a vehement comic-book energy, and the eye-popping production design by Holger Gross is like Boris Vallejo's Greatest Hits come to life.

Makes absolutely no sense in its theatrical cut and still feels awfully messy in Twohy's director's cut.

Vainly attempts to elevate Riddick into a mythological hero in a political-intrigue contest meant to be Dune in an action context, though it's a lot more like Stargate in a crap context. [Blu-ray]

The Chronicles Of Riddick is never dull, but it's far, far, far too pretentious.

Very violent, brainless explosion movie.

The sequel baton pass at the finale is pretty nifty, but it's surely asking too much to think the filmmakers could leave us wanting more. Come to think of it, much, much less would have been best.

I enjoyed it immensely, but not because it was any damn good.

The muddy, convoluted story revolves around the star's cool-guy poses and one-liners.
June 15, 2004
A preening outer-space costume drama staged as a backdrop for its leading man's muscles.

With writer-director David Twohy's mega-budget follow-up to his Pitch Black, what was once a purring engine has become a gas-guzzling, accident-prone Humvee.
