The Chronicles Of Riddick Movie Free Download Hd-----------------------------------------DOWNLOAD: http://urllio.com/r2v8a -----------------------------------------The wanted criminal Riddick arrives on a planet called Helion Prime, and finds himself up against an invading empire called the Necromongers, an army that plans to convert or kill all humans in the universe.Five years ago... Escaped convict Richard B. Riddick escaped from a desert planet with his two companions, religious man Imam and runaway teenage girl Jack. After five years wandering across the outskirts of the galaxy and being hunted by bounty hunters calming the bounty on his head, Riddick arrives on the colonized planet New Mecca, he learns Imam placed the bounty on his head and Jack has been imprisoned on the prison planet "Crematoria" for murder. Riddick learns from Aereon, ambassador of the Elemental race is seeking out Furians, a race of warriors in a bid to balance the universe, as a warrior army known as The Necromongers led by the evil undead Lord Marshal are invading every planet in the galaxy and cleansing all of humanity in their goal for universal conquest. Beliving Riddick is a Furian warrior, Aereon decides to hire Riddick believing he is the one man who can stop The Lord Marshal and the Necromongers. When the Necromongers attacks New Mecca, Riddick is captured by cocky bounty hunter Toombs and his crew and he is transported to Crematoria, where he reunites with Jack now named 'Kyra', where Riddick and Kyra escapes to the planet's sun ravaged surface, where Riddick helped by Necromonger warrior Vakko and his sexy wife Dame Vakko, sets out to defeat the Lord Marshal and save the universe from the Lord Marshal's rule and save the rest of humanity from being converted into Nercomonger warriors.I had the unfortunate experience of paying money to go see Chronicles of Riddick. If there is one thing you can learn from reading these posts, it is don't waste your money on this movie. If the curiosity is killing you and you were interested in the character Riddick from Pitch Black, then I recommend you see this movie matinee or even better, sneak in after you see a much better movie. In hindsight, I would have rather watch myself burn a 10 dollar bill rather than go in and watch this movie.
I'm actually quite surprised that this movie has received anything near the 6 mark on IMDb's ratings. After the conclusion of the movie, I was already making comparisons to Wild, Wild West in its unfortunate execution of an interesting idea. And after watching Riddick, I'm wondering which movie is worse. For those interested, it is as least as bad as Wild, Wild West and the Postman. And a pity too, for a movie where the uber-cool Riddick would be able to leave the dark planet from the first movie and be set free in a bigger budget flick seemed enticing.
First of all, for those who do not heed my warning and actually want to see this movie, beware the spoilers ahead. The movie starts off with Lord Marshal (isn't that redundant) destroying another world. Then we are treated to Riddick fleeing from a group of bounty hunters on planet UV whatever. This brings me to another thing that bothered me about the movie, the unoriginal names for planets and races. A really hot hot planet is called what??? Creamatoria! Because it's hot! Get it! Riddick's race is furious. Guess what? That's right, he's a Furion. I'm surprised the opening planet wasn't called Radiationa or something. Geesh. But this is the one sequence that works for me. The menacing Riddick takes out the bounty hunters one by one proving that he is THE badass in the universe.
He learns that a bounty was put on his head by his friend from the last movie Imam residing on Helion. (And yes, Helion does become hell on earth. Yes, it is going to get nuked by a hydrogen bomb. So Helion is another one of those clever planet names.) Now the big question in my head is: How can a holy man from Pitch Black who was flying Economy Class afford to put a 1.5 million credit bounty on Riddick? That is not explained, but it doesn't matter because we are treated to a fight with the locals in which Riddick takes off his goggles no less than four times. (Throughout the movie he removed his goggles no less 10 time! So much for subtlety). Because he can kick the local authorities butt so easy, it is time to enter the Necromongers. Yes the Necromongers, a dreary, drab excuse for a villain with the worst tailors in the galaxy. You see, the Necromongers lead by Lord Marshal, half human and (oooohh scary) half something else that is not explained, want to get to the Underverse. The UNDERVERSE!!!! What is this Buckaroo Bonzai across the Eight Dimension? At least Buckaroo Bonzai was campy and fun and did not take itself seriously. This movie has a pretentious air to it that takes itself too serious and seems to have little fun doing it. The costume and set design for the Necromongers make Stargate look subtle.
So onto the next series of unlikely, impossible, and stupid action sequences. Riddick is captured by the Necromongers converting the planet in a town hall meeting. Insert action sequence. Necromongers welcome Riddick on the ship. More dreary, stupid effects. Then he escapes. Blah, blah, blah. Then, unexpectedly the bounty hunter, Toombs returns from the first sequence. You see he's followed Riddick back to Helion even though it's being invaded by a genocidal fanatic race. He really wants that 1.5 million. I guess the money is for his top-notch equipment. While not good to catch Riddick on Planet UV Already Don't Care, he is able to destroy a Necromonger Corvette with only a bazooka. Toombs with his shoulder mounted launcher is single handedly more effective than Helion's entire planetary defense force. In my opinion, if Helion can fall that easily, let them get destroyed for Underverse sake and move on to the next planet. Guess what? We do.
Onto the really, really hot planet Creamatoria. Remember it's hot. Riddick is captured and he is being taken to the penal colony under the surface. He wants to go there because his friend is being held captive here. Good enough reason for several unnecessary and incoherent action sequences, including a chase by razor backed guard dogs. The dogs looked cool, but very CG. And worse, they had no purpose except for the sake of action and for Riddick to show his animal empathy. You see, 'It's an animal thing.' So more shoot-outs, more chases, then we get to the big grand daddy of them all: a run on the surface of Creamatoria to outrun the sun. Remember it's real hot. How hot? 750 degrees hot. Although there are many plot holes in the movie, I am capable of forgiving a couple or letting a few slide. This movie has many. But apparently the rocks on Creamatoria are cool enough to shield you from 750+ degree heat. Surprisingly cool. This hole is so big you can drive a Necromonger ship through it. Oh well, who cares at this point. Speaking of plot holes, I'm wondering while an ethereal air elemental played by Judi Dench, teleport in a wisp of air and glide around but become chained and imprisoned by the bad guys. Oh well.
More action. Worse costumes. Onto the climax. At this point, it really doesn't matter. I had already stopped taking the movie serious 15 minutes in. And after Creamtoria, I was really starting to resent the movie for my wasted time and money. Back to Helion for the final showdown. The big action sequence is over the top. Everything is over the top: The special effects, the costumes, the over-acting, the supposed intrigue within the Necromonger ranks, the smarmy evil-ness of Lord Marshal, the conclusion to the fight, and the political ramifications. At this point, Lord Marshal is making Dracula from Van Helsing seem as menacing and well-acted as Hannibal Lector. I've stopped caring and now I hope you have.
If there is one redeeming quality of Chronicles Of Riddick, it is Riddick himself, Van Diesel. He seems perfect for the role, the bald, brooding, gravely voiced Diesel is perfect for the anti-hero Riddick. In the more subdued Pitch Black this character was menacing and almost self contained. The danger of the light-phobic aliens was amplified by the danger from within. The fugitive Riddick was their key to survival, but we always had a thread of fear that he could and WOULD betray them at any moment. In this movie, Riddick is set loose. This is not a bad thing. While Diesel is on point with Riddick, it is the universe (or Underverse or whatever) that is off the mark. Given a better story, interesting characters, and a world (or worlds) we care about, Chronicles of Riddick could have been something special. When Riddick came to the Necromonger citadel ship, he says 'I would have gone another way.' Deisel was right. He almost says it with a wink under those goggles. I'm hoping that the Chronicles of Riddick stays only a CHRONICLE.
2/10.First off, this movie takes risks and delivers absolutely memorable images. Fingerprint terrain, temperature differential, slow motion action that never uses the excuse that "this is a generated reality".
This comment is more about the character of Riddick. Any technical aspects of the movie are for another time.
Riddick cannot lift 50 tons nor can he shoot lasers from his eyes or suck up energy from the sun so he can fly. He doesn't wear a costume designed to get attention, in fact his clothes do exactly the opposite. Riddick is interesting and succeeds by using that one thing we as humans beings all have. The absolute will to survive.
His path made him a criminal to his universe. But he simply knows how to survive. He is the incarnation of the term "survival of the fittest" and he IS the fittest. All of his action are ambiguous, neither right or wrong. This means his choices can't be judged as right or wrong. There is no right or wrong in basic survival.
A LION eating the BIRTH MOTHER of a baby gazelle is not acting as evil or doing something wrong. It's about survival.
If you really pay attention, Riddick is the ONLY character without any agenda. He's perfectly content to remain a nobody but someone somewhere is always trying to make him a 'somebody'.
He realizes attachment equals death because that takes him beyond just surviving. He has to make choices that INCLUDE others. He is continually presented with opportunities to grow in character. It's a perfect continuation of his choices in Pitch Black.Where "Pitch Black" relied on shadowy threats and sharply drawn relationships between a small group of stranded victims-to-be, Twohy's bloated space opera is an eye-popping three-ring circus of fabulously freaky costumes, over-ripe declaiming and computer-generated spectacle.Escaped convict Richard Riddick (Vin Diesel) is lured to the planet Helion Prime by Imam Abu al-Walid (Keith David) with whom he was marooned five years ago on a desert planet where they were hunted by vampiric raptors. Imam and air elemental Aereon (Judi Dench) believe that Riddick was born a Furyan and may be the only one able to stop evil Half Dead Lord Marshal (Colm Feore), the leader of a crusading warrior sect known as Necromongers who are planning to convert or kill all humans in the universe. Helion Prime is subsequently invaded by Lord Marshal, and Riddick is captured by bounty hunter Toombs (Nick Chinlund) and transported to Crematoria, a prison planet where daylight temperatures climb to over 700 degrees and nighttime temperatures plunge to 300 degrees below zero. But it's not all that bad, because Riddick learns that the only other person to have survived the raptors with him and Imam, a young girl named Jack, is also imprisoned on Crematoria. However, the Necromongers are also on their way. The Chronicles of Riddick is the second movie in the Riddick trilogy, preceded by Pitch Black (2000) (2000), which was based on a screenplay written by American screenwriters Jim Wheat, Ken Wheat, and David Twohy. Using three of the characters (Riddick, Imam, and Jack) created in Point Black, Twohy wrote the screenplay for The Chronicles of Riddick. It was followed by Riddick (2013) (2013). Disguised as a Necro warrior, Riddick returns to Helion Prime on the Necro ship to rescue Kyra (Alexa Davalos) and kill the Lord Marshal. Meanwhile, Lord Vaako (Karl Urban) is named first among Commanders making him heir apparent to Lord Marshal. Vaako and his wife (Thandie Newton) scheme to kill Lord Marshal until Dame Vaako realizes that Riddick is still alive. She suggests that Vaako let Riddick attack Lord Marshal first in order to weaken him so that Vaako can more esily strike the killing blow. As the Necro warriors assemble in the Necropolis for the "day of days" celebration, Riddick makes a leap for Lord Marshal, who easily evades him. Instead of having Riddick instantly killed, Lord Marshall invites Riddick to join with the Necromongers and shows him that Kyra has already converted. As Kyra walks past him, Riddick asks her if she's "with him", but Kyra does not reply. Riddick reacts by throwing a Furyan blade at Lord Marshall, which nicks him slightly, and they turn on each other. Using his Half Dead powers, Lord Marshal gains the upper hand. When he tries to take Riddick's soul, however, Riddick gets a rush of strength, and they go at it again. Just as Lord Marshal starts to gloat about his powers, Kyra spears him in the back. Lord Marshal retaliates by batting her across the room, impaling her on a spike. Realizing this is the best time to strike, Vaako grabs a Necro axe and makes his move but misses. Riddick picks up his Furyan knife and stabs Lord Marshal in the head, killing him. Tending to the mortally wounded Kyra, Riddick asks her once again if she is with him. "I was always with you," she says with her dying breath. In the final scene, Riddick collapses on the Necro throne, and the Necromongers kneel before him. "You keep what you kill," Riddick reminds himself. Two. To gross more at the box office, the film was heavily cut in order to obtain the financially lucrative PG-13 rating. This version was released in theatres and later on DVD. Some time later, an unrated Director's Cut found its way on the home entertainment market. It includes all the scenes that had to be cut out and adds more story to the film. It runs more than 14 minutes longer. a5c7b9f00b http://erilma.jugem.jp/?eid=317 http://dayviews.com/franuarag/526827137/ http://ratylusword.bloges.org/1537290010/ http://lalini.jugem.jp/?eid=279 http://www.nookl.com/article/337932/hindi-hunter-x-hunter http://vemita.jugem.jp/?eid=309 http://humphlilibe.blogviajes.com/1537290013/ http://setmaqua.jugem.jp/?eid=336 http://www.ggf.lt/en/news/view/id/287157 http://www.nookl.com/article/337934/the-the-equestrian-full-movie-in-hindi-free-download
