The last movie in the trilogy.
To me it came off as a rehash of Pitch Black, what with the Mud Demons all coming out of hibernation when the rains came , leading to a mad dash to safety for the humans holed up in that base. Same scenario in Pitch Black with those creatures underground coming out after the planet entered its cycle of being devoid of sunlight for a long period.
I see lots of critics bash Chronicles and say Pitch Black was better but I think Chronicles was the best in the trilogy. Chronicles had a much more diverse plot. You had Riddick at the start in the mines underground, then being captured by the bounty hunters and the main protagonist being the Lord Marshal and the Necromongers. Chronicles just had more going on while Pitch Black and Riddick are both pretty simple .
Riddick had a vastly smaller budget than Chronicles so it's understandable why they had to keep it simple.

So do most of you like Pitch Black or Riddick more than Chronicles?
