Rebel Moon - Part Two : The Scargiver (2024)

I liked the part with the slow-motion grain harvesting montage.

More of the same shit. The pacing was maybe a little tighter this time, but the story was no more compelling. Everything was blurry as fuck, the slow-motion was ridiculous, there were too many characters with no good reason to care about them, and the writing was simply awful. 

I don't know how I'm supposed to take seriously a movie with situations and character actions completely at odds with its own worldbuilding. The empire has all these spaceships and laser weapons and armoured battle crawlers, but they desperately need this single field of wheat. 

Then a bunch of space-amish, cottage-core farmers (that don't even own a combine harvester) defeat them with the cunning strategy of... digging tunnels and hiding in a barn. The fact that the ambush consisted of popping out of a hole 15 metres in front of a drop ship and firing a rocket into it while every soldier completely failed to react is almost as stupid as the fact that it actually worked. 

Every single time that one dude with the axes charged at the infantry like a viking berserker I expected him to be immediately gunned down. Even the imperial soldiers were just standing completely out in the open. I guess cover isn't a thing in the future, and the effective range of a laser rifle is a stone's throw.

Once again the cliché evil British guy was utterly boring. The addition of a not-lightsaber duel to the mix was simply embarrassing. The movie ended on a note implying the story has only just begun. We're a solid four hours into this mess at this point, and I have to wonder who's asking for more. I'm sure it's on its way regardless.

Once again Sofia Boutella was the best part of the movie by far. She looked so good in short hair and a tank top, with her strong arms on display. Even though her romantic interest was dull as rocks, she was cute in those scenes too. Let's face it, I'm going to keep watching this drivel just for her.

Laughably derivative and painfully mediocre, just like part one.

I watched Rebel Moon: Part Two – The Scargiver.

The film felt less “awkward” to me than Part One which, although I agree had flaws, I enjoyed and thought was unreasonably criticized. In my opinion, Part Two’s pacing was better, it was more suspenseful, more “epic”, and there were a few rousing moments. That said, it makes sense since A Child of Fire was mostly about recruiting and introducing a team of warriors while this movie is about them actually fighting.

It was already obvious to me that a lot of work had gone into this project, but then watching Creating a Universe - The Making of Rebel Moon confirmed this. They spent so much time building this world, its people, cultures, creatures, technologies, languages, etc. It feels like everything and everyone we see on screen was carefully crafted and has a detailed backstory. Also, they built a spaceship and an entire village, dug a river, created a field, organically grew wheat, and had the actors actually harvest it in the film! I think that’s impressive.

Zack Snyder had been building this universe in his mind for years, drew his own storyboards, and even assembled custom camera lenses because he had a very precise idea of what he wanted the movie to look like. It’s heartwarming to see that people (cast and crew) who worked with him defend the project and say how invested, respectful, and passionate the director was. For him and for the many equally creative, talented, and dedicated teams involved, I’m glad the artistic vision they shared at least had a chance to become a reality.

As imperfect (but honestly far from being as bad as people keep saying) as what we’ve seen so far may be, I still believe the saga has a lot of potential. We’ll only be able to properly judge it after seeing the long, R-rated versions of the films anyway (and hopefully a Part Three)...

In the end, though, I realize what I truly care about, more than how the story of Rebel Moon is told, is its universe as a whole, but also the passion of the many people who put their hearts and souls into bringing it to life to such a high level of detail. It exists, and as someone who’s been building many worlds in my own mind since I was a child, that makes me happy.
