Riddick 2013 -
The film is not without flaws. The middle section, where Riddick plays cat-and-mouse with the mercenaries, can feel slightly repetitive. Some of the dialogue (particularly from Santana) crosses the line from “vicious” into “cartoonishly crude.” Additionally, while Katee Sackhoff is excellent as Dahl, the script briefly flirts with a tired implication about her sexuality that feels dated and unnecessary.
The beacon draws two ships: one crewed by a team of professional, disciplined mercenaries led by the competent Santana (Jordi Mollà), and another by the more pragmatic, veteran hunter Boss Johns (Matt Nielson)—the father of the mercenary Riddick killed in Pitch Black . Both crews have the same goal: bring back Riddick’s head. But they have different methods. riddick 2013
