Review: Ewan McDonald

The crew of an interstellar mission and a dangerous prisoner are all deep in cryogenic sleep when their spaceship collides with a cluster of rock fragments.

The captain and several others are compost and Fry (Radha Mitchell) assumes command.

The ship crashlands on a planet that circles within a three-star system, where at least one sun never seems to set, and the surviving crew have to fight it out with the vicious and cunning prisoner Riddick (Vin Diesel, Saving Private Ryan).

If you can understand sentences this long, this movie is not for you.
