i have see director cut version and can be nothing but content . excellent acting ( esp . cole hauser and i be sad about little space for claudia black though ) and subtle visual effect and photography in overall and believable plot ( consider the genre ) without a lot of logical hole and really non predictable twist and build up character . these be the great asset of the movie . combine with style some may consider this movie a b grade effort but i would disagree with that . the whole thing really be very original and stylish . and even though i be not a fan of vin diesel and this tough guy role of riddick suit him well . can not wait for chronicle of riddick and it really cool this flick gon na have a sequel . positive if you ask me .
