A lot of critics keep mentioning the "snydercult." That's not something that should matter with this film. I think a lot of these critics have been attacked by his fanbase and they take it out on his films. Don't get me wrong, I think the Snyder fans are freaking weird, but critics should judge this film on its own merits.

Considering that the original Star Wars is Kurosawa’s “The Hidden Fortress” in sci-fi drag, it isn’t exactly new to try that kind of mash up.

Zack Snyder’s 'Rebel Moon' is getting shredded by critics. Currently at 26%



If you're shocked by this, you obviously wouldn't know a good movie if it tickled your taint. Snyder is a one trick cinematography pony. He is awful at creating worlds and stories. The trailer basically informed us this movie was going to be awful. Don't blame the critics, blame Snyder fans for keeping this hack around on life support.

getting a 'fresh' rating isn't exactly high praise

It’s still Snyder trash.

Woke activists were pissed about the Snyder cut and the hashtag #releasethesnydercut. They called it “toxic fandom” aka regular people as is the norm with all the access media

Snyder is basically trump to critics

what's funny is that Snyder is pretty darn liberal, he's just not an a-hole, nor does he get into politics or pretend to be smarter than his audience.

SnyderCut did a way better justice to Gal Gadot AND Ray Fisher. I thought Fisher was just cashing in on modern race sensitives and bitching, but after watching the SnyderCut, you realized his important scenes were really hacked to death.

Then when you realize that Wheedon was indeed a liberal a-hole who preyed on women while loudly parroting all the popular progressive talking points, you get why the media was pretty quiet about his cancelling and doesn't like Snyder.

He's nowhere near a "beloved" director to me, but he makes fun dumb pretty action movies directed at me and seems like a decent dude.

Sounds like it's a rip-off of a derivative and lacks any real heart. But other than that...

I don’t really need heart. I need cool space stuff blowing up, defying physics and logic. I have not seen it yet but I am strapped in already for the sequel, 2 fast, 2 Rebel Moon.

Yep. Expecting Star Wars directed by Snyder with slo-mo and a Rock and Roll soundtrack.

It looks kinda like everything else in recent memory. Boss babe badass, nazi white oppressive men, chosen one trope, diverse ragtag group in David vs Goliath struggle. Not saying it cant be entertaining but ill be surprised if its very good

My @THR review of the turgid Netflix space saga


Is the word "turgid" experiencing a renaissance? I think this is the second or third time I've seen it this week. I know critics have their throw-down words that come and go in popularity.

I turned it off after 10 minutes. I stopped after watching some chick sniff dirt for what felt like an hour.
