I was skeptical at first about the playback since it's a used copy with a few scratches on the playing surface. But... I'm thoroughly amazed after playing it. The quality is perfect! No skips or stalls! I'm very pleased! I'll certainly be looking for more great deals like this! Many thanks!😉👍

I loved the movie Chronicles of Riddick so I naturally had to purchase the director's 3 disk cut. I was expecting some great new scenes but to be honest I couldn't really tell which scenes were new as they were not memorable or even really important ones such as the ones on the Lord of the Rings director's cuts. Riddick is your classic macho in-your-face character who can back up what he says. This is your classic live by the sword, die by the sword space epic. Definitely worth owning and the graphics don't disappoint and the Necromongers sexy in a barbaristic sort of way. The cast is superb with no miscasts, and the character Toombs is exceptional as Riddick's in hot pursuit mercenary.
Pitch Black really just introduced Riddick. This film fleshes out the role and develops Riddick's persona, adding some mystery of his origins and the race he came from. It also gives him some fallibility both with the girl and his narrow win over the Lord Marshal.

I own 4 different versions because ebay gives me sellers with different versions, the stores don't, plus store prices are much higher. You can watch this movie and it is totally complete without seeing Pitch Black. This is one of the best sci-fi, survival of the fittest movies ever made. The editing is wonderful, it sets a great pace. The attire of the future is believable and wonderful. The massive scope is a movie in it's self. The fear of this master races leader is just wonderful, the fact that Diesel is such a thorn in this leaders side is a source of pleasure through the entire movie. The special effects are indescribable. I watch this movie along with about 9 others (not at the same time) about twice a year; just to learn more 'as I do, each time I watch it' I am amazed that Hollywood didn't get the movie; then on second thought. The current foder is " Vin Diesel turns down a for sure money maker for a sci-fi romp, well everyone isn't in it for the money, and it's becoming real evident who is and who is not. Sci-fi fans, here is another classic.Read full review
It's got a great mix of story, background and action to go along with it, it's also a great continuation from the previous film pitch black and preamble to Riddick.
