Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon Part 2 Reviews & Viewership! 

Yeah, you're right, it's a good idea. The rated R version should just add the r-rated content, the PG-13 version should still have all the story.

This wasn't just a bad movie - it was LAZY. It's ok to be critical when the film maker is clearly counting on the viewers lack of intelligence by adding completely stupid and pointless special effects. I'm not a Snyder hater I just value my time.

I can agree with those ideas.

Perfect world, we get just the intended version of RM. What Netflix is doing though is very financially smart. Four movies for the price of one, and three release dates to hold onto subscribers or get people to resubscribe. Also, from the way Zack talks about the director's cuts, I think there will be vast differences not only in graphic visuals and added plot, but also a difference in tone. He's said that even an actor saying the same line is potentially different in the director's cut. Either way, great assessment, and I totally agree with getting Terrio back (he's goated).

Im torn on both movies. I really wanted to like them both so much more than i did, i gave part1 a 6/10 and the second a 7/10. There were some questionable scenes, dialogue and action sequences in both movies. I want more background for all characters. More Jimmy. More mother World. Why is Tarak running around an open battlefield with axes 🪓? Why is Milius shooting rockets 5 feet away from target? Just some really silly decisions imo and im not trying to hate on the movie. Im not really invested in Kora as the main tbh but i do really want to see more about Jimmy. I really think this movie would have done so much better with him being the main focus over Kora tbh.

Rebel Moon part 1 was just about OK. Part 2 was shockingly bad. I don't know what's happened to Zack Snyder, but I was 100% confident he would make an epic new series of movies. I am baffled by what's he's ended up doing....as a massive Snyder fan, I just can't believe what I saw when I watched part 2. Utter shite.

Part 2 is better than part 1 but the director's cuts are needed cant wait for August

I loved both parts of Rebel Moon 🌙 and can’t wait for the directors cut and the continuation of this universe

This movie is a gold i watched three times in the first day that was coming out I'm going to watch it as much as can

I feel like with Snyder's long run time would be better fitted for miniseries. I think this is shown to work greatly in ZSJL on how they broke it up. I do agree on bring back his old team. I'm sure they probably didn't because of the cost but put the money out.

I pretty much agree. Dump the pg13 cuts, get a screen writer, producer, and cinematographer, and reign Zack in a little bit. I think him putting slowmo everywhere is also a problem. A cinematographer can tell Snyder where it works and where it doesn't. I also think Netflix gave a little too much control. Whether Zack likes it or not, he needs to be controlled. I've been saying this for years, Zack works better when he doesn't write the films he directs.

He needs to hire writers cuz writing isn’t his strength he’s great at visuals that’s about it . But we can at least put the restore the Snyderverse to bed now cuz it’s not happening .

No he visto ninguna de las dos. Lo haré y pondré mis comentarios Amo las películas de Snyder

Thank you my friend.

I liked Part 1, but definitely loved Part 2 👍 I never listen to critics or haters.

I’m a big fan of Snyder. I really don’t have a issue with us movies at all. His writing can mostly be a hit or miss but Snyder does the best he can. Rebel moon part 2 was way better than part 1. But if he can have someone work with him on the writing. I’m sure his rebel moon universe will be 10x better

Those who rated it 10/10 are on Netflix’s payroll

I’m just wondering if and when someone will fan edit rebel moon into a Star Wars movie

I think the 2 different versions are fine. But they should simply release the PG-13 cut and the uncut versions simultaneously. That way, folks can choose right away. No waiting for another version and giving folks time to opt out because they are impatient and decided to just judge everything on a PG-13 version only. Zack was still smart to make 2 versions. If there are kids in the room, watch the PG-13 version. -OG

Where did you find those review scores for the 16,000 people reviews? Was it a website or app you found this on? @Our Movie News

I agree with the directors cut thing. Who is going to watch a longer version of a movie they dont like? Also, the majority of the things being complained about are not things that get fixed in a directors cut. Is it set in stone that Netflix will let him make more though? I would have to think if they have an out they're going to take it. It's way too much money to invest in movies with these types of reviews from audience and critics. They are being laughed at in a way, I am also curious what effect this will have on Zack's career. I don't see any studios lining up to blank check him in the near future. He can obviously still direct and with a good script he can still find success, but he'll have to work his way back. He needs a win.

I fully agree with all your points here. Releasing an inferior product was definitely a shot in the foot. In his DC era, haters would often criticise the story or the slo mo but now he's given them a legitimate reason to bash him and his fans the way they do because he's taken on way too much. I also think, in the end, this will affect his legacy, being the director who needs multiple versions of the same movie to tell a story. He's obviously talented, personally I think 300, his DC trilogy and Watchmen are his best work. Everything post DC has been a bit of a letdown and though as a fan I'm happy to see him experiment and try new things, at the end of the day he's in the entertainment industry where your job is to entertain and when you see your favourite artist not being respected the way you know he deserves because of actions which he did to himself then that CANNOT be defended. Almost every review on RU-vid and social media is giving it a thumbs down (with the exception of devoted fans). He doesn't care. According to him he doesn't watch negative reviews and that's fine, but when you leave your level-headed fans to be the shield for your sub-par work, it shows you don't care much about them either but rather for corporations to make money from deliberate (and damning) artistic decisions . Zack is still my favourite director, but man, how can one keep on supporting these decisions when you know his TRUE work can be so much better?

Critical Drinker bashed the holy hell out of this movie.

Technically that's what Netflix wanted not Zack. So DC scenarios all over again.

Solid review and insights! Completely agree with including the essential story elements while only removing the graphic content. The PG-13 version shouldn't be "subpar" due to story elements being removed. While I enjoyed part 1 and part 2, one thing that bothers me is that the most unique characters ****spoilers ahead **** keep getting killed off! That's really frustrating because Blood Axe from part one with his fantastic speech and presence was a great albeit short-lived character. Another great character was Charlie Hunam, I know he betrayed everyone but man he brought his own unique energy to the cast that was missing in part 2. Then you have my personal favorite, Nemesis, everything from her aesthetic to her unique weapons and origin, just added something cool to the cast. I think that one thing that really helps a Sci-Fi franchise is to have those unique characters. Without that, you just have a bunch of people running around with guns, much less compelling. Nemesis's absence will definitely be felt moving forward in the franchise, and I wish she had survived. The ending was great with the revelation that the princess is alive, and Jimmy officially joining the Rebellion. Hopefully, with a few needed changes, this franchise can move forward. But they will need to find ways to distinguish themselves with unique characters like Nemesis or add more aliens to the core characters to stand out as a new Sci-Fi franchise.

Remember when fan kept giving the Transformers movie a chance and they were making a lot of money until the fans said they had enough, that's going to happen to the Rebel moon franchise if Snyder continues to go down this path. Hire writers to write his films, he's best when directing and should stick to directing.

"Extreme snyder haters" is when ppl give snyder a chance to prove himself time & time again but he screws up thus ppl give their thoughts. NO the ppl i've talked to said they won't be watching the director's cut seeing as they have no intrest in a watered down star wars rip off so idk what you're on about

Thought Part 1 was okay Part 2 seemed rushed. I understand original concept ideas characters but didn't have feeling Good or Bad Guys just felt waiting next action seen.

I get Netflix's strategy, but never agreed with it. Personally though, I don't think we can fairly judge Rebel Moon based on these PG-13 versions. It's not like this is some 'fix it' director's cut scenario excuse you saw 'haters' use during ZSJL. The extended director's cuts were advertised from the very start. Something to remember as well is dialogue can differ in different cuts of films. Off the top of my head, Army of Darkness. First time I saw the theatrical release, I was like where is the, "I ain't that good" line, amongst others. As for Part 2, parts of it do feel a bit rushed and that parts are missing, but true be told, i thoroughly enjoyed Part 2. Actually can't wait to watch it again. Bring on the extended director's cuts, and bring on Part 3.

The movie was ok for me, better than the first one. But I agree that it could be better. Zack should get the team (writers, cinematographers, etc) back who helped him make great films. Unless he does that, I don't think we'll get anything on the level of 300, Man of Steel or ZSJL.

Change the characters restart this thing with fully developed characters and less taking from influences

Personally, I enjoyed part 2 of Rebel Moon. Moreso than part 1. I thought it was wise to have the characters go into detail of their personal history in the first hour. It makes you appreciate part 1 a little more because you feel like you understand the characters a bit more. Second hour was pretty much all action. I love that it wasn't just another stereotypical movie where everyone dies save 1 or 2 characters. I hope what I said wasn't too much of a reveal. Anyway, I love that the film ended in a way that it's not really the end. There's more story to be told. I love that. -OG

It's ridiculous that there has to be extremes on either side. I like Snyder. Does that mean I like every work he's done? No. But that doesn't stop Snyder haters from accusing you of being a Snyder bot. I believe the extreme is more so on the hater side. I've seen posts threatening to kill Ray Porter (voice actor for Darkseid) just because he offered an opinion on the Snyderverse. That's insanely extreme. While Snyder fans are passionate, I don't ever see that mentality on the favor Snyder side. Just sayn'. -OG

I really wanted to like this series of movies. However, part one moved way too slowly for me and part two, even with all the action, continued that slow burn. In fact, I couldn't even finish it, I fell asleep on three separate attempts. Zack should consider getting proper writers for his stories, as his writing is often weak. I really like some of his movies, and he has a unique style that sometimes works with certain genres of movies. Part of his problem is that his formula, though unique has become too repetitive. The overly colour-saturated dreamlike look of his movies has become formulaic and sometimes takes me out of the movie. The slow-mo everywhere (was the slow-mo necessary during the harvesting scenes?) just doesn't work all the time and it tends to slow down the pace of the storytelling. It's a shame this franchise didn't work for me, I just hope he learns from his mistakes and produces something spectacular, hopefully with the right team of writers and producers.

While I fully understand the strategy, I would not use it again.

I enjoy both movies, not really the best, but ok; nontheless, we need to get final cuts from the beggining, not chopped ones.... i think reviews will be much better!

I also think that's a good concept. In addition, I believe he could collaborate with various anime-inspired animation studios to create anthology shorts like "Love Death and Robots" that feature the stories of the main characters; for instance, a short may explore Nemesis's backstory. All of these stories can eventually lead into the live-action third Rebel Moon film.

So far for me the franchise has been "middling" and overall harmless. Liked the first part a bit better than the second but neither merit the in my opinion manufactured and exaggerated hate

I love Zack, but I can’t defend rebel moon, they’re bad. Zack’s at his best when he just directs, get him a good writing team and cinematography and BAM 💥

Great Ideas,but there's a problem, I have a feeling netflix restricted the runtime. The only possible sex scenes in this movie are like 3 and the major fight scenes being about 3 in total doesn't give me the impression they would add the extra hour of footage. So if those other scenes could be added here,the definitely would. But there must have been a limitation on run time. He said something weird about focus groups recently ,and I think he's trying to imply that studios are actively trying to tailor movies to the masses. So that naturally puts a director like him that hasn't got the power Nolan, Cameron etc have in a situation where they aren't allowed to be creatively free. I felt a little bit of that in the recent Dune part 2. The second half of the movie moved so fast it was like things were sped up no apparent reason.

When are you going to make another road to Superman episode? Still haven’t talked about the Kent casting.

El gran error al promocionar esta película fue mencionar y compararla con Star Wars de entrada y realmente tienes que primero presentarla y desarrollar la historia y personajes. Creo que Snyder es un gran director, de mis preferidos pero comparar esta historia a mi juicio con Star Wars hizo que los fans subieran la vara

It doesn’t matter anymore

I always thought writers like Alex Garland, Denis Villeneuve, Christopher McQuarrie, Jonathan Nolan, Brad Bird, James Gunn, Greta Gerwig, and Nicole Pearlman, are the kind of writers that can help execute Zack’s ideas properly, but I wouldn’t mind Chris Terrio or David S. Goyer to work with Zack moving forward on future projects.

Hire Chris terrio

*I mean everyone wanted him to have more freedom* - myself included - but this has shown what happens when he has freedom.. I no longer blame WB for dialling him back.

The action in Part Two was incredible! Totally worth seeing if you're an action junkie. Actually looking forward to watching the real movie/Director's Cut in August.

In terms of what could make RM better, I guess a show that highlights more interesting parts of the universe? I gotta say, centering the focus of the story on a farming village and its grain did not help in the long run.

The movement will NOT LOVE EVERYTHING Zack Snyder does, they/we will however always defend him against haters go to bat for him and generally support him. There is actually a difference. Think of a loving parent and their child, not everything the child does will be loved but the child will be

Great

It would be interesting if Terrio and Fong participated on the Rebel Moon sequels, as well as additional ZSJL actors. We’ll see. Have enjoyed what I’ve seen thus far, both in movies and comic books and I am looking very forward to the SnyderCuts. Will be reading the novels for the time being.

Still, I’m enjoying the novelization, and can’t wait for the director’s cuts in august

I don’t trust any of these critics or review sites especially after reports and articles coming out about certain platforms getting paid off to put out higher scores on certain films Look at the scores for Blue Beetle and The Flash for christs sake 😂😂😂

When are you Snyder fan boys going to stop making excuses for Snyders glaring flaws as a writer/director and look at the actual facts? There are consistent threads in the majority of people who do not like Rebel Moon 1 or 2 and they are horrible dialouge, extremely underdeveloped characters, poor villian and I'm sorry that haircut literally is probably the worst ive seen in cinema....it also is a reason hes not intimidating! You never feel the threat, there is no tension or stakes because Snyder has written such uninteresting and underdeveloped characters you literally could careless when any of them die! Bottom line the common consensus among the poor reviews is that the entire franchise is empty and gives you nothing to care about or be invested in!

Bug’s life in space how to fix I dont hate snyder i dont know him, i ve like some of his work and some other not so much. The biggest issue with this movie is its writing. Im not a writer i cant make it better but as a movie watcher i ve notice its bad, he need to direct and not write and have people that are not afraid to tell him NO when he says stuff like yeah grain in slowmo sounds cool right. There is so much character underdevelopment we care for noone like the love story between kora and farmer boy. So yeah better writers

I've gotta say....it is VERY strange to watch one of your videos and not have that usual background music playing! 😁

What I have heard zack want to experiment with his movies to see what work or not and they are alternate versions of scenes and dialogue And character moments that's why it's so many different cuts of the movies

I'll be honest with you, I was fine with Rebel Moon the way that they came out. I might watch the director's cut, but it's not necessary for me at all. I just hope that Netflix understands that Zack Snyder is worth investigating in and will make a run at licensing the DCEU.

He was preemptively dangling the director's cuts as something people should hold out for, before the first movie got released. That should have been a *huge* red flag. But certain people refuse to listen.

Awesome film

I thought part 1 and 2 were ok. I am a huge Snyder fan, but I wasn't blown away. I really want to see the director's cuts. Maybe Snyder needs to reign in the "over the top sex" lol

I’m still not watching either movie till the directors cuts come out. I don’t feel like these movies can’t be properly judged till we see everything in the movies that he wants.

2 film r verry good but too short the r rated ll be perfection

Zack must like making 4 hour movies now.

He also need to stop using the blurry camera. And yes hire Chris Terio!!!

Lol. Everyone got all their complains covered in this from part one. People can't separate their anger at him, for god knows what reason.

4:26 "Extreme snyder haters" as you call them i've seen say they won't, am more critical of snyder's films so i wont waste time on pointless director's cuts if you need that to make a decent movie then you're not a good director 😂

With that graphic we can see that the review bombing its even larger in with the fans who give it a perfect score than the haters who give it the minimum. And they always complain only about the negative review bombing... Ironic.

SnyderVerse #RebelMoon

Netflix is to blame for this mess 😂😂😂

The basic world building and framework of RM is deeply flawed and terrible. And Zack the Hack is so arrogant that he will never change. You have to be an incredible Zack fan to think this is anything but terrible, or have a desperate need for braindead entertainment.

I think Rebel Moon pts 1 and 2 could have been reduced to one 3hr movie.

You really want to polish this corpse that has been lying in the grainfield to long? Pretty brace if you ask me 🙂

I think Zack should stop writing. He’s not a great storyteller. A good director and knows where to place the camera and knows how to set up good scenes but he’s just not a good storyteller. I think he should only be a director or a producer for Rebel Moon, I think he should get people who doesn’t always agree with him and can reign him in when his ideas get too much for the story. Focus on telling the story, stop doing set ups for sequels and focus on the movies first. World building is cool and tempting but the story and characters always comes first above all else.

Specifically about this movie “What’s one man’s trash is another man’s trash

Chris Terrio is a hack. Remember Rise of Skywalker?

《Rebel Moon~Part Three: REVENGE OF THE NERDS!!!》 ...sooo, if you HATE Zack Snyder, that makes you COOL...? ...buuut, if you LOVE Zack Snyder, that makes you a NERD...? ...(i don't Subscribe to any Streaming Services, so i would prefer that NetFlix)... ...Release the Edited Version on the Streaming Service (& at the same time)... ...Release the Director's Cut on DVD/BluRay...? 👽 🖖 🤖

How can a good film maker have so little character development in both these movies yet have so much time to do endless slow motion scenes? Cut down on the slo mo and fix your characters.

The only way for Rebel Moon to be good is to tell better stories. All directors have to cut scenes to make it runtime and rating, and it turns out well. I don't like this mentality from Netflix or Zack Snyder saying, "If you don't like this version, don't worry. We have the director's cut to make it better." It's like DLC for movies.

Bunch of fake hate, Disney SW don’t want this franchise to get successful and I think it is so obviously showing, ive seen so many bigger youtubers who it wasn’t even on theyre radar 2 weeks ago, all of a sudden coming out of woodwork to bash it, it’s completely insane, the movie was great, the shill army is just out in full force😂

I can’t believe all this crying over a NETFLIX film.. It’s not even in theaters. I see more reviews on RM than any movie in the theater right now. What does that tell you? Everyone wants to be a director or movie producer now. Just enjoy the movies or don’t! Telling an accomplished director he needs better writing is like going to a 4/5 star restaurant and telling the cook the food needs better seasoning… You don’t have to watch. But they will because secretly they all like the movies. But they need to be haters for clicks and views. It’s freakin NETFLIX! Just keep scrolling.. Why are yall so mad at something you don’t even have to see? Mind boggling.

It's a very unbiased video. Zack excels as director. Joining with better writers and cinematographers could leverage rebel moon to another level.

I am neither a Znyder fan nor Znyder hater but I would give this movie a 1/10 rating because, outside of a few well shot action scenes, it seriously has NO redeeming qualities.

I think the Snyder cut for this will be a completely different movie , i think Netflix and Zack purposely make it average so that his original version will be much better

I think Zack should employ you as and some others as a focus group when the film is done roughly, ideas would be flowing haha! I agree totally about the writers, still loved the movie

I have always loved Zack, I have seen 300 countless times and have always watched all his work but I think since losing his child he has lost his edge which is a fucking tragedy. I truly hope he can one day return to form.

Ripoff Moon-The scabies giver is another trash bin vehicle from Zackie boy. Now you know why Netflix didn't promote this clunker after the awful reactions to the first film. This man uses crayons to write his scripts for Pete's sakes😂. Just watch as the days progress, this film will crater in the viewership as they realize how played they were for watching this trash😂

Snyder should stop surrounding himself with YES MEN & "YES MEN fans" it ripped off A bug's life & kung fu panda 3 both animated films. And every Netflix movie is number 1 when it comes out even if it's complete garbage

by making him the next ed piskor? too soon? I dont care

I'm a Zack's fan, but hell I have no idea what he was thinking, the movie is a complete cringe failure. It's not going to get better, it will only get worse.

I just didn’t like all the slow mo.

"Dedicate 10 hours to movies they dont like". The first set of people who streams the films are the haters. They watch it before the fans. I'm 100% sure they will have or find the to watch the director's cut.

He needs to stop making everything a directors cut. Just make a good movie like Nolan and all the other great filmmakers 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ppl say it’s a rip off of ST. ST is a rip off a Dune. Most sci-fi movies are “rip offs” of Dune. Smh. 😂

I'm all excited and hyped for REBEL MOON 1,2

Yall need to chill. Just let the man cook. Its the same dilemman with the dceu all over again. Everyone whining about that eventually would have come later had snyder been given the chance to continue his story.

I think REBELMOON 1,2 is perfectly well done 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

So many Snyder haters just for the sake of hating him. And critics are just other people’s opinions. Food, clothes, shoes & movies, etc. it was found out Rotten Tomatoes is owned by WB & their ratings can mean different things. 1 rating can mean 2 things. I like Snyder $ his DCEU & other movies but I’m not a 100% toxic Snyder lover but he also has 100% toxic haters bc it’s cool to hate him.

No need for improvment it's already best , zack is best cinematographer and director

Moving forward ???? LOL We don't want anymore of this shiiiite.
