Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver

.... Watch this.

I actually fell asleep, during the table scene.

Both movies are incredibly formulaic and tropey.

There are some nice visuals but it feels like an incredible waste of vision.

I like thinking about the details of movies but for the love of me I don't get this back to basics life style of the farming, using manual labour except for the anti gravity carts.

And when did that lady have a chance to crochet for each of the heroes especially after a full day of farming.

So much of the story doesn't make any sense, even when attempting to cookie cutter from other movies.

It's like they copy/pasted and then let a cat walk across the keyboard.

In a world where mankind travels in spaceships next to black holes, a bunch of people and animals dragging a spaceship around must be the lowest point of the movie.

Story is total trash. Didn't make sense from the first part. Ain't getting better in the second.

Characters are totally unrelatable. Their backstories and motivations complete nonsense, irrelevant and told in a very boring manner.

The dialogues are so cringe and bland it makes you turn off the volume.

And how easy it must be to make a 2 hours movie when 70% of it is slow motion.

How can you have a carriage that floats on thin area, but needs a horse like animal to drag it around?

The Snyder trademarks are all here in abundance - endless slo-mo, rousing vocal score, long close ups etc. The cliched and uninteresting characters also dominate the proceedings - it's very hard to care about anyone here.

The second half is basically one big battle, which is actually well done - the action is frenetic and realistic for the most part and looks more real than most of Snyder's back catalogue. It's a shame that the first half is so dull and silly, with a forced back story scene where the main characters basically retell their lives in cheesy flashbacks taking up a ridiculous amount of time.

It's worth watching for the visuals and action, but don't expect much more.

Watched both the parts together. I have no clue how my brain is functioning properly.

Positives : CGI, Costume Design, Cinematography Negatives : Pretty much everything else. Script/ Story made no sense. Seems like a high school kid wrote it. Expected better from Snyder.

Dialogues are trash Acting is non-existent. Even the most emotional scenes are laughable

It is just like an old western where a group of people band together to fight a common enemy except this movie tales place in space. The movie added nothing new just copy pasted the stale idea. I am not sure why Zack was so excited for this movie. The first part was watchable (it sucked) but the 2nd part made no sense.

Watch it only if you have time and brain cells to kill.

This is a story you want to love but logic must be thrown out as the beginning premise is a very small against a well trained, well equipped oppressor. Stories should be believable in order to be drawn in, we love underdog stories... something against all odds! But you have to believe its possible to for that underdog to win, which at NO point do you see any evidence no matter HOW NOBLE the reason they can. The technology of an empire that can restore broken bodies, fly between planets, supposedly a formidable force... against a village that INTENTIONALLY plow their fields with animals.

Regardless of the inspiration help from a handful of skilled hand-to-hand fighters... before the fight starts you know you have to suspend reasonable logic.

After saying all this it does create beautiful stories within the very unbelievable fight, but the fight itself it the big miss.
