Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver
Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver
Will there ever be a version of ‘Rebel Moon—Part 2: The Scargiver’ and its franchise where the movie and its franchise becomes a must have? Director and co-writer Snyder Zack has already attempted to rouse the fans by hinting at R-rated cuts of the first two installments of his “Star Wars” knockoff series, a mindless tribute to that other sci fi franchise that has been exhausted.
The well-covered campaign for the release of the Snyder cut of the Justice League film Self-destruct-ing revolutionized what was previously just a super-programmer of “Oh! The Last Jedi There Was A Light What?” Fortunately, this has been a rather unfortunate marketing strategy especially going by the way: It has also set a new low as to how “Rebel Moon” is being marketed.
Sadly, while I cannot write a criticism of an inaccessible variant of “Rebel Moon – Part 2: The Scargiver” I have to clarify that: inventory only violence and/or sex embellishing this unjoyful splendor of the previous movie Kurosawa replaces sets should not possibly be considered makes an improvement.
The same factors that made it impossible for the first part of rebel moon to bear any transformation beyond the status quo can still be noted. Thus, Snyder’s disregard of actor’s merits in and out of the film seems to be the other reason for the down slide. And too great a number of overly dull pictures, as well as insipid dialogues in this film.
As with the previous, the most recent ‘Rebel Moon’ feels like it has been hurried into production merely to go up against whatever flavor of ‘Star Wars’ is now available on Disney +. Snyder’s fans might see potential in the second part of ‘Rebel Moon’ which other fans of this genre have already given up on, but that does not make this tired spiel any less feeble.
“Previously on “Rebel Moon”: Attempting to stop oppression once and for all, a pack of misfits joined the group and against all odds, killed the imperialists space nazis ruled by Regent Balisarius, a thickly accented man (Fra FeeBy) in a way, and a very lanky angrier the owner of an extremist bookstore Atticus Noble (Ed Skrein) and his crew. At the end of ‘Rebel Moon – Part 1: A Child of Fire’ Noble was killed.
Even the climax of that film let on that this would not be true for a full length feature of that movie. Anyway, sure enough, he’s back again and this time, he’ s bloodthirsty enough to set out for vengeance against the small town space farmers of Veldt. Veldt is this wonderful moon with rich farming fields of space grain, space kids ready for oshkosh b gosh catalogs and even asterix like longhouses.
Here represented by the strangled young and well built hunter Den (Stuart Martin) of natives of Veldt and older but well muscled Hagen (“A White, White Day” star Ingvar Sigurdsson). The same rag tag as before still with reconstructed scowling ex-general Titus (Djimon Hounsou generic Kora Sofia Boutella and her last love interest on screen Gunnar Michiel Huisman who incidentally also hails from Veldt and whom I completely missed out describing).”
In case you are walking yourself through the changes made since the last ‘Rebel Moon’, oh there is gone from the picture, what the heroes fight for, or rather what they are trying to emphasise using these relentless voiceover visuals.
Snyder lists among other relatives to the ‘Rebel Moon’ movies, also proudly identifies with the ‘Heavy Metal’ line of comics which is graphic design oriented, marijuana friendly comics and Snyder foreshadows this inspiration in the name of the character Martin (after Richard Corben’s Den space barbarian comics). I don’t understand, and it isn’t because Martin tries hard, really hard in fact, to project the kind of feelings he is feeling, which is huge, rather.
I would assume that it is Snyder’s impaired eyesight, rather than Den or his turn, that makes it impossible for Den to reach his epithet’s self-demand. See, for supporting evidence how for character and detail in almost the majority’s the way of depicting them was and is replacing by what Joss called action figure posing and intensity.
As is often the case, whether looking on the sweaty, vein-releasing actors or the astonishingly inaudible and underwhelming gory violence, less is more in “Rebel Moon—Part 2: The Scargiver.” The mention of Kora and Gunnar’s romance also seems excessive because of the wide, coarse, hints suggestive of romantic intrigue, such as his when-up proclamation where he tells her the source of his urge: “It was you. It was losing you.”
Let this be aside considering the clumsy adolescent statement and the rather misplaced and naive attempt at emotion, this attempt at hugeness is Snyder-fied. Sounds more convincing than the visuals of Scorpio “Rebel Moon,” a series where not just sound but sound designing was better than the visuals.
For instance, physical reproduction of Sher’s “Rebel Moon—Part 2: The Scargiver” would seem to be the best thing to do because that way, the sound will be loud enough making one think about something grander.
Perhaps, it is also true as well that there still remains optimism regards to theatrical releases, although nude scenes were visible in some of these films – the fact that Netflix financed these two movies, their most expensive content in 2023 – suggests that not too many people will be viewing this film outside their couches. In the light of these facts, it is hard to foresee the requirement in a standalone R-rated cut of either movie.
What fails in the cinema of “Rebel Moon” is not that. Instead, the ‘Rebel Moon’ movies have to be larger or fatter’.
If the rest of the parts are as unstimulating and insignificant as the boring non-sexual parts in a bad, expensive porn, I really don’t believe that adding more of everything will improve any of those things a great deal.
