Pitch CGI


The Chronicles of Riddick (2004)

Written and directed by David Twohy this sequel stars Vin Diesel, Karl Urban and Judi Dench. After spending years hiding on an ice planet Riddick is called back to fight an army of world eaters.

Taking what was originally a sleeper hit and a fairly simply sci-fi monster film the idea was to turn this into a epic franchise based around the anti hero Riddick. There are plenty of big set piece special effects sequences but some of the direction of them is annoying at best with and more likely disorientating rather than cool at times. When it comes to the plot the main problem is that there is no character development or growth for the protagonist.

2/5
