The Chronicles of Riddick- an hour and a half I’ll never get back
I won’t go into the boring, inane plot of this film, but just imagine Conan with ray-guns and you pretty much have it.
Saying that Vin Diesel is a wooden actor is an insult to wood. I honestly believe that a piece of hickory would have had more charisma in this role. And unfortunately, unlike Pitch Black, this time there isn’t a decent script to save the film.
As far as Vin Diesel’s sex symbol status, I can only come to one conclusion: Chicks really REALLY dig muscles, because I can’t imagine any woman getting turned on by that misshapen egg on Vin’s shoulders. Staring at that mug on the big screen for 90 minutes was a torture akin to watching Star Jones try on swimsuits.
