It's hard for me to say that The Chronicles of Riddick is good. Especially taking into the stunning origin it has in Pitch Black. But it tries really hard. It tries to be good, it tries to be original, it tries to appeal to so many disparate groups, it tries to go in a completely new direction. This trying mostly translates to failure, and I guess I can see that, but Chronicles of Riddick still had such a massive impact on me, that I still have to recommend it.

Final rating: - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
