Five years ago... Escaped convict Richard B. Riddick escaped from a desert planet with his two companions, religious man Imam and runaway teenage girl Jack. After five years wandering across the outskirts of the galaxy and being hunted by bounty hunters calming the bounty on his head, Riddick arrives on the colonized planet New Mecca, he learns Imam placed the bounty on his head and Jack has been imprisoned on the prison planet "Crematoria" for murder. Riddick learns from Aereon, ambassador of the Elemental race is seeking out Furians, a race of warriors in a bid to balance the universe, as a warrior army known as The Necromongers led by the evil undead Lord Marshal are invading every planet in the galaxy and cleansing all of humanity in their goal for universal conquest. Beliving Riddick is a Furian warrior, Aereon decides to hire Riddick believing he is the one man who can stop The Lord Marshal and the Necromongers. When the Necromongers attacks New Mecca, Riddick is captured by cocky bounty hunter Toombs and his crew and he is transported to Crematoria, where he reunites with Jack now named 'Kyra', where Riddick and Kyra escapes to the planet's sun ravaged surface, where Riddick helped by Necromonger warrior Vakko and his sexy wife Dame Vakko, sets out to defeat the Lord Marshal and save the universe from the Lord Marshal's rule and save the rest of humanity from being converted into Nercomonger warriors.
The wanted criminal Riddick arrives on a planet called Helion Prime, and finds himself up against an invading empire called the Necromongers, an army that plans to convert or kill all humans in the universe.
Pretty adept sci-fi action flick, with an okay mythology and some cool visuals. Though the backstory has some nice concepts, it does have a 'been there, done that' feel to it, and the main story is actually kinda weak. The acting, apart from Diesel, is pretty terrible, and even Vin isn't as charismatic as he was in Pitch Black. Judi Dench is completely wasted. It's solidly directed, though, and the effects are pretty good, save for a few anomalies (the tiger things in the prison). The action sequences are pretty well done, save for the 'running away from daylight', which is a stupid concept and has been done ad nauseaum before. Some of the visuals are stunning, especially the Necromongers attacking at the beginning. Great score, too.
Looking at these comments, its obvious that opinions are very mixed, some hailing TCoR as an amazing film, some saying its just okay, and some calling it a suckfest. The fact of the matter is that TCoR is 100% pure science fiction, and hasn't been "Hollywood-ized". I think the reason many folks claim that it makes no sense and is just a lot of effects with no backbone are ultimately not comfortable with having almost every aspect of known existence given a crazy spin. That's the risk when writing science fiction or fantasy pieces: if your imagination takes it to the extreme, people will in general lose interest, as they don't know how to rationalize the bizarre new concepts in ways they're used to. This is especially so when you're thrown right into the thick of it, with little or no explanation. It takes a bit of time to orient yourself, and many folks don't even bother, just dismissing it as a mess. Also, TCoR is about 10,000 steps forward from Pitch Black in terms of complexity. Watching Pitch Black and then TCoR is like going from watching paint dry to watching an alien land his spacecraft on your house, walk out of it, and poke you in the forehead with a suction-cup finger. TCoR is through and through a sci-fi masterwork. The story and characters are intriguing, the locales are breathtaking, the vehicles are mesmerizing, and the otherworldy concepts are mind boggling. If I have anything negative to say, it'll be about the acting, which is B-grade at best. Vin Diesel is great as Riddick, but most of the supporting cast is just adequate, and Thandie Newton just hams it up as Dame Vaako. I might have gone a different way with some of the dialogue as well, but for the most part it was good. Also, the little Riddick tune from Pitch Black is present, but I think its slightly changed. Each time I heard it, I was waiting for the right note to come up, but it never did! All in all, TCoR is a must-own for any true sci-fi fan. I hope they make the sequels :)
An overblown hodgepodge of volcano-baked desertscapes, Egyptoid-gone-baroque architecture, and gladiator-geared storm troopers with goofy headpieces, The Chronicles of Riddick bears no resemblance to the movie that spawned its namesake.
Escaped convict Richard Riddick (<a href="/name/nm0004874/">Vin Diesel</a>) is lured to the planet Helion Prime by Imam Abu al-Walid (<a href="/name/nm0202966/">Keith David</a>) with whom he was marooned five years ago on a desert planet where they were hunted by vampiric raptors. Imam and air elemental Aereon (<a href="/name/nm0001132/">Judi Dench</a>) believe that Riddick was born a Furyan and may be the only one able to stop evil Half Dead Lord Marshal (<a href="/name/nm0272173/">Colm Feore</a>), the leader of a crusading warrior sect known as Necromongers who are planning to convert or kill all humans in the universe. Helion Prime is subsequently invaded by Lord Marshal, and Riddick is captured by bounty hunter Toombs (<a href="/name/nm0157915/">Nick Chinlund</a>) and transported to Crematoria, a prison planet where daylight temperatures climb to over 700 degrees and nighttime temperatures plunge to 300 degrees below zero. But it's not all that bad, because Riddick learns that the only other person to have survived the raptors with him and Imam, a young girl named Jack, is also imprisoned on Crematoria. However, the Necromongers are also on their way. The Chronicles of Riddick is the second movie in the Riddick trilogy, preceded by <a href="/title/tt0134847/">Pitch Black (2000)</a> (2000), which was based on a screenplay written by American screenwriters Jim Wheat, Ken Wheat, and David Twohy. Using three of the characters (Riddick, Imam, and Jack) created in Point Black, Twohy wrote the screenplay for The Chronicles of Riddick. It was followed by <a href="/title/tt1411250/">Riddick (2013)</a> (2013). Disguised as a Necro warrior, Riddick returns to Helion Prime on the Necro ship to rescue Kyra (<a href="/name/nm1111968/">Alexa Davalos</a>) and kill the Lord Marshal. Meanwhile, Lord Vaako (<a href="/name/nm0881631/">Karl Urban</a>) is named first among Commanders making him heir apparent to Lord Marshal. Vaako and his wife (<a href="/name/nm0628601/">Thandie Newton</a>) scheme to kill Lord Marshal until Dame Vaako realizes that Riddick is still alive. She suggests that Vaako let Riddick attack Lord Marshal first in order to weaken him so that Vaako can more esily strike the killing blow. As the Necro warriors assemble in the Necropolis for the "day of days" celebration, Riddick makes a leap for Lord Marshal, who easily evades him. Instead of having Riddick instantly killed, Lord Marshall invites Riddick to join with the Necromongers and shows him that Kyra has already converted. As Kyra walks past him, Riddick asks her if she's "with him", but Kyra does not reply. Riddick reacts by throwing a Furyan blade at Lord Marshall, which nicks him slightly, and they turn on each other. Using his Half Dead powers, Lord Marshal gains the upper hand. When he tries to take Riddick's soul, however, Riddick gets a rush of strength, and they go at it again. Just as Lord Marshal starts to gloat about his powers, Kyra spears him in the back. Lord Marshal retaliates by batting her across the room, impaling her on a spike. Realizing this is the best time to strike, Vaako grabs a Necro axe and makes his move but misses. Riddick picks up his Furyan knife and stabs Lord Marshal in the head, killing him. Tending to the mortally wounded Kyra, Riddick asks her once again if she is with him. "I was always with you," she says with her dying breath. In the final scene, Riddick collapses on the Necro throne, and the Necromongers kneel before him. "You keep what you kill," Riddick reminds himself. Two. To gross more at the box office, the film was heavily cut in order to obtain the financially lucrative PG-13 rating. This version was released in theatres and later on DVD. Some time later, an unrated Director's Cut found its way on the home entertainment market. It includes all the scenes that had to be cut out and adds more story to the film. It runs more than 14 minutes longer. a5c7b9f00b
