Awesome / Riddick

Go To

  • Every time Dahl punches Santana. It never gets old.
  • Riddick kills Santana by kicking his sword up to the ceiling, then kicking Santana against the wall, catching the sword with his foot, then kicking it all the way to slice the top half of Santana's head off. The best part? Riddick then pushes the same box that Santana was planning to use for Riddick's head to catch Santana's head. Or at least, the top two thirds of it.
    • And he does it with a lone free leg, while having both hands and other leg chained and manacled.
    • And he had the courtesy of telling Santana before it. Once again proving that when Riddick tells you he will kill you with sonething, its Not Hyperbole.
  • Riddick's young canine test-subject managing to mildly impress and amuse him by breaking out of its cage.
    Riddick: Escape artist, eh?
  • Riddick's Last Stand against a horde of amphibious, predatory aliens, with him climbing to the top of a large rock formation and killing them as they chase him up, eventually fighting them with his bare hands. This gets topped when Boss Johns proves himself a much better man than his son, not just coming back to rescue Riddick, but sweeping in with his ship and blasting the aliens into paste with the main guns.
  • Riddick walking and dropping his weapons to meet with the Mercs, the way it's angled makes it look like Riddick the enormous thunderstorm coming is following him.
