Movie Reviews of Dark Fury - The Chronicles of Riddick (Animated)
Movie Review: Animated Short Riddick Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Got the three Riddick movies as a gift and watched all three over the weekend. I can't believe I liked them so well. In this cartoon segment of the Riddick saga, Riddick, Jack, and Imam end up on a ship conveniently owned by a collector of master criminals (a female) who is anxious to add Riddick to her collection. (She freezes her victims but they are still alive.) I remember this storyline from a Star Trek when a collector tried to collect Data. This reused storyline still worked well for this, particularly because this was so short. I think it would have been a mistake to make this longer. It was just the right length to hold my interest. The animation is interesting in this, very stylized and unique.

Taking a page from The Animatrix, Dark Fury is part of a new trend of bridging theatrical sequels. As an official product of a franchise, the 35-minute anime benefits from having the original actors voice the characters, including Vin Diesel as Riddick. This story opens with the new action hero and the two other survivors of Pitch Black already caught by a giant spaceship filled with dread. The sinewy leader has a unique--and creepy--jail for master villains and she has her sights set on Riddick. The film--indeed the series--is indebted to animator Peter Chung, who brings his techno style from his Aeon Flux series. His smooth animation for Riddick doesn't reinvent the character as much as give him a new, appealing fluidity. As anime goes, there's nothing really new here--plenty of action, cool killers, and dramatic spurts of blood--but it's a building block for how this genre might enliven movie series and sequels in the future. --Doug Thomas
