Pitch Black review

An average movie

Honestly, I have never been really impressed by Vin Diesel but I kept hearing good things about this flick so I thought I should check it out. At the time, Vin Diesel was hailed as the new action movie star and showed up in no less than 3 potential movie franchises back-to-back (‘Pitch Black’, ‘The Fast and the Furious’ and ‘xXx’). Fast forward more than 10 years later and those franchises are the only thing starring Diesel which are slightly successful (as a matter of fact, he showed up in 10 movies during this period and 6 of them were sequels to these franchises!). Anyway, coming back to our main feature, I thought it was not bad at all after all. Indeed, the story was rather entertaining, Vin Diesel was pretty convincing and the movie really looked pretty good. However, the whole thing was still not original enough to become a genuine good science-fiction flick in my opinion. I guess something was just missing to make it totally satisfying and I think it still looked too much like a B production to become really remarkable. Still, in spite of its flaws, there were a lot of things to enjoy here, it remains an entertaining flick and it is definitely worth a look especially if you are interested in science-fiction movies
