6/10
Predictable and Boring
21 April 2024
Kora (Sofia Boutella) returns to Veldt with the farmer Gunnar (Michiel Huisman) and the warriors Titus (Djimon Hounsou), Nemesis (Bae Doona), Darrian Bloodaxe (Ray Fisher) and Tarak (Staz Nair). Titus commands the defense of the farmers and asks them to harvest the grains and use them to protect their homes. While waiting for Atticus Noble (Ed Skrein) and his men, they disclose their pasts waiting for the showdown with the mother world's force.

As I mentioned in my review of Part One, Rebel Moon uses the storyline of "Seven Samurai" adapted to a sci-fi. "Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver!, however, is a predictable and boring adventure that follows the Netflix's standard (one black warrior, one Asian warrior, one gay warrior, a powerful - but this time, not beautiful that looks like an androgynous man - lead woman). The plot entwins the past of each other in order to complete the two hours' time schedule. The pacific farmers win the empire, with weapons, tanks is a little too much, isn't it? The worthwhile thing to see are the magnificent special effects. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Rebel Moon - Parte 2: A Marcadora de Cicatrizes" ("Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scars Marker")
