Review Time
Warning: there are flashing effects and colourful effects
in this film
Storyline/Characters/Comedy/Performances: it is good; the pacing of this project is depending on if
Riddick/Diesel is on screen or not basically he is the driving force behind
this film in every sense of the word.
He is a very
well-rounded character; be it when he tells you if he has killed someone or not
[meaning if he killed somebody he would tell you straight up] or being comical
watching things go down from this high up location [whilst he is sitting down
in this chair having a drink under this small umbrella or basically Ogilvie/Fitz-Gerald
drops this expensive bottle of drink and it rolls to Riddick/Diesel;
Riddick/Diesel introduces himself with a handshake including the words
"Escaped con and murderer"[because Ogilvie/Fitz-Gerald told
us/Riddick/Diesel what his field or speciality is and he offers the handshake
first] and proceeds to finish off the bottle; it does feel like in this
interaction there is a comical edge to it as well on one hand we have
Riddick/Diesel treating this interaction as an everyday occurrence mixed in with
Ogilvie/Fitz-Gerald clearly being intimidated and frightened of Riddick/Diesel.
Riddick/Diesel
does create good on-screen chemistry with everyone is well, so let's minus
Riddick/Diesel for a moment; the pacing is slow and the other
characters/performers are their solid character types/performances; they do
their job they are designed to do.
Action/Art: the action has weapons being
used and combat; the art is easy to see; the landscape on this Planet or these
many close-ups of Saturn; they are very eye catching you wouldn't be able to
miss them.
This film receives: 8/10, this film is
excellent; I mean without Riddick/Diesel on-screen this film does suffer, but
all things considered a lesser mark feels a little bit harsh so I just went
with the one which is easier to justify.
