Those who think that Vin Diesel is a one trick pony need only look to the "Riddick" franchise for proof that, well, his trick is just as effective on alien planets. On a soft weekend overall, from which the real headline might be the continued success of The Butler and Spanish-language hit Instructions Not Included, Vin carried Riddick on his massive shoulders to a first place finish.
