Watched the director's cut ofThe Chronicles of Riddick last night -- a friend got it for me for my birthday -- rated it a 7. It's an enjoyable movie, but tries to take on too much. The world is too expansive for that short of a movie. That's why Pitch Black works so much better -- it is focused on one planet and the survival of one small group. Anyway, the director's cut does better in some areas such as adding explanation to a few plot points that were glossed over in the theatrical version. However it also does worse is other areas, such as changing some memorable lines and adding some dorky dream sequences. Still, in the end, I enjoyed the film overall and am happy to own it.
