VyceVictus, a brilliant film critic and an independent thinkers, seems to have liked but not loved Rebel Moon.
(I don't know why the first tweet doesn't preview).
I used to argue with VV when he was just an online poster about movies, bit ultimately, he was far wiser and far more knowledgeable about movies than me.
I liked but didn't love the first one. It was in the ballpark of movies like Chronicles of Riddick and John Carter. When I saw the way people beat up ob it, it reminded me that Snyder has been an internet punching bag since Man of Steel came out, so people critique him just to get likes, upvotes, retweets and that leads to exaggerated hate.
As pointed out in the tweets, Snyder s politics are hardly those of a right wing troll. Separately from being known for treating his staff well, this movie (for example) is genuinely diverse. Not in a tokenist sense like the Disney Star Wars movies, but in that actors of different ethnicities, etc are given meaningful roles. The theme of the two movies is also strongly anti colonialist.
