Riddick - Unrated Director's Cut | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

A few decent scenes can't salvage what appears to be nothing more than a money grab.

As a movie, Riddick is half giddy, pulpy sci-fi that is a total blast; and half a clumsy, overlong mess, full of plot holes and inconsistencies.

To its credit, "Riddick" never takes itself too seriously, but it doesn't quite delve into full-fledged camp mode. Instead it is a film that sort of straddles the center of the mediocre line.

Riddick is one of those movies that, once you watch it, is destined to likely get mixed up in most people's minds with a lot of other movies that are sort of like it. However, for the time that it's onscreen, it's diverting enough to merit a watch.

Basically, Riddick strays and strains while never serving up a throbbing storyline to justify why the audience wants to reacquaint themselves with the pumped-up planetary bad boy...get ready for this...utter Riddick-ulousness.
