 - Very decievingThe trilogy is actually a ploy. It gives you the appearance of getting 3 movies. You do not !!!! Dark Fury is a cartoon that is such poor quality it is laughable. Pitch Black has extremely vulgar language. Chronicles of Riddick is a very good movie that has good acting and special affects. Save your money and just get Chronicles of Riddick only. The other 2 arent worth a nickel Rating:  - I didn't want to like it...but I did. I am not a sci-fi fan, but this story line is stimulating, and the filming is not 'B'. While the 'Chronicles of Riddick' was a neat movie, seeing the entire thought process and story line is truly impressive. Rating:  - better than in theatersThe directors cut changes the movie completely. It went more sci-fi and I liked it. Rating: - Pleasantly surprised!I bought this originally at Wal-mart. I was not thrilled with the anime "story filler" second movie (i. e. Dark Fury; I just don't care for anime, but my youngest son liked it). I had already seen Pitch Black and liked it ok, but not enough to buy it. But for the price, I figured it was worth trying to see if the second and third movies were any better. Wow, what a suprise! The Chronicles of Riddick was fantastic. I thought the planet scenery, costume, and set artwork was as good or better than as in the last Star Wars but with a gothic-gladiator styling. The story was really good (lots of subtle forshadowing that I did not get until several times watching the movie) and the acting excellent. I rarely buy movies I have never seen before and when I do buy a movie, I will watch it again and again as time passes. If I had seen "The Chronicles of Riddick" in the theatre, I would have decided it was one I intended to buy in the future. Rating:  - Almost perfect packageI loved the idea of having the whole trilogy in one nice simple package. I only removed one star because I would have preferred more "extras". I'm a sucker for special features :-) In any case, a very convenient package at a great price.
