the first time i heard about this film and i be expect a twisted thriller on space like pitch black . an agatha christie on space a my friend say . but it turn out very disappointing . the film be actually a failed star war wannabe . it doesn not have any connection to the first film . in pitch black and it be about bunch of people and human and get stick in a deserted planet . in chronicle of riddick suddenly they be necromanger and furyans and and many other strange fancy space name . it like give a star war sequel to the movie alien . do not fit . i couldn not believe that it be david twohy who write the script and direct the film . he do a great job in pitch black and but this film fell a long way from pitch black . and i still can not believe judi dench take part in this film .
