Hell has surely frozen over. That’s the only way to explain how David Twohy, writer-director of the so-bad-it’s-hilarious Charlie Sheen skydiving epic “Terminal Velocity,” has made a movie this good. It’s not high art, but “Pitch Black” is a triumph within its genre: a suspenseful, intelligent monster movie with surprisingly deep characters.
A damaged spaceship loaded with cargo and cryo-sleeping passengers crash-lands on an alien world where three suns create perpetual daylight. At first, the survivors think their biggest problem is the vicious convict who’s escaped from the wreckage. Then they discover the light-fearing predators lurking beneath the planet’s surface. And then comes the total eclipse…
“Pitch Black” is a Diesel-powered movie– Vin Diesel, that is. As the menacing convict Richard P. Riddick, Diesel gives a ferociously intelligent and charismatic performance, backed up by Twohy’s surprisingly nuanced script. You’ll come to root for Riddick as the movie wears on, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll like him.
Radha Mitchell is also fine as the novice pilot Fry, battling inner and outer demons as she tries to hold the survivors together; Cole Hauser does a nice turn as Riddick’s captor; and the fine supporting cast includes Keith David as a Muslim cleric (a refreshingly positive portrayal of Islam) and “Farscape”’s always-excellent Claudia Black.
“Pitch Black” is an embarrassment of riches for sci-fi fans: characters who continually surprise you, creepy creatures left mostly up to your imagination, and a stripped-down story that moves at a breakneck pace. Perfect popcorn entertainment– just be sure you don’t turn _all_ the lights off before you watch it…
Pitch Black was arguably one of the most overlooked films of the early year. Although the setting of the film could seem routine to a casual viewer(space travelers stranded and bickering on a hostile planet infested with alien nasties), director David Twohy’s wonderful use of color and stylistic flourishes more than makes up for any trivial complaints.
For those of you curious about the film’s plot, it deals with a group of marooned space “passengers” who spend the majority of their time searching for a way to evacuate a harsh desert planet. Their efforts are unexpectedly forced to quicken however when they discover a particularly vicious type of nocturnal alien ready to emerge to the planet’s surface during an eclipse.
Viewers can’t help but like the film’s villainous hero(played by Vin Diesel of Saving Private Ryan and Boiler Room)who brings to memory Arnold Schwarzenegger’s famous role as the Terminator.
The film looks and sounds great and has more than a few moments of nail-biting tension thrown in for good measure. For Science Fiction fans this is a must-see. And as for the rest of you, try giving this fine movie a chance.
You’ll thank me when you do.
