2/10
a complete disaster

I'm really amazed by such high ranking of this film. If it deserves at all for a name of a film, because film should have something called plot and should be played by people called actors. It starts like a fairy- tale and ends like the some low-budget commercial. It seems that Riddick was a king of some Necro-civilization, but he left his kingdom to find a planet called furya. Of course there is no explanation why. Who would ask at all ? He is betrayed by his guide and left on some planet which is similar to Texas, where he adopts a dog and trains it a while. He even managed to kill the main predator-species on this planet - a sort of an eel and scorpion in one (the effects are like on PC ten years ago). He leads this interesting hunter-trapper life, but unfortunately on this desert planet the clouds are gathering - the storm is coming. So he travels to find a kind of shed (where did it come from?), equipped with beacon and sends a signal into space to make someone come to him and get him a ship. Of course it takes only few hours and at least 2 ships arrive ! The one contain a group of marauders with Russian accent, the second a father of someone from the past of our hero (no explanation who he was and what is it about). The rest is typical (i will reveal that they kill the dog !!!) - but completely deprived of suspense and sens too. The ending is so stupid that i can't find the words for it. Just leave this absurd alone - because it is not a film but a series of moving pictures - even first horror in the history - without sound and color is better - watch Nosferatu of Murnau from 1922 instead of this nonsense.
