Chronicles of Riddick
#6
Well, I saw Chronicles, and it wasn't horrible, but it was no Postman, either.

(Shaddup, The Postman rocked, even if it wasn't as good as the book... :P)

Most of the movie was decently paced, except for (in my opinion) the last few scenes. I only spotted two CGI sequences that really stood out in a bad way (Riddick testing the weight of the knife, and the dog things), and most of the fights were very cool (especially the no-sound one - but I didn't like the Confuso-Flashy-Vision fights).

Also, I thought the bounty hunter (Tombs? Tooms? Something like that) was really cool, and someone really nailed it on another forum when describing him as Ron Perlman-like. :ph34r:

My big beef with the movie is the names. It's like something straight out of a Flash Gordon flick - Necromongers? Elementals? Furians? Crematoria? Ugh.

Overall a decent popcorn movie, much better than some of his other roles (I'm looking at you, xXx). Not really a classic, and maybe not worth buying the DVD, but worth at least 1 watching...
