Bigger isn't always better, but for anyone who enjoyed Pitch Black, a
nominal sequel like The Chronicles of Riddick should prove adequately
entertaining. Writer-director David Twohy returns with expansive sets,
detailed costumes, an army of CGI effects artists, and the star he helped
launch--Vin Diesel--bearing his franchise burden quite nicely as he reprises
his title role. The Furian renegade Riddick has another bounty on his head,
but when he escapes from his mercenary captors, he's plunged into an epic-
scale war waged by the Necromongers. A fascist master race led by Lord
Marshal (Colm Feore), they're determined to conquer all enemies in their
quest for the Underverse, the appeal of which is largely unexplained (since
Twohy is presumably reserving details for subsequent "chronicles"). With
tissue-thin plotting, scant character development, and skimpy roles that
waste the talents of Thandie Newton (as a Necromonger conspirator) and
Judi Dench (as a wispy "Elemental" priestess), Twohy's back in the B-
movie territory he started in (with The Arrival), brought to vivid life on a vast
digital landscape with the conceptual allure of a lavish graphic novel. But
does Riddick have leadership skills on his resumé? To get an
answer to that
question, sci-fi fans will welcome another sequel.
