If you add up the running times of both <em>Rebel Moon \u2014<\/em> <em>Part Two: The Scargiver<\/em> and the first film, it amounts to well over four hours. It\u2019s not surprising, considering that this one features a sequence in which the characters harvest wheat for what seems longer than a Swedish art film. And I know that the setting is supposed to be an alternate universe, but considering that it features space ships and technically advanced weaponry, it seems a bit absurd that farming hasn\u2019t advanced beyond scythes. Although the extremely buff performers look damn good wielding them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"review-summary-card\">\n<div class=\" lrv-u-flex lrv-u-flex-direction-column@mobile-max lrv-u-padding-a-125 u-background-color-honey-light \">\n<div class=\"lrv-u-flex lrv-u-flex-direction-column u-width-275@tablet u-border-b-1@mobile-max u-border-r-1@tablet u-border-dotted lrv-u-margin-r-150 lrv-u-padding-r-150 lrv-u-margin-r-00@mobile-max lrv-u-padding-r-00@mobile-max lrv-u-padding-b-125@mobile-max lrv-u-margin-b-075@mobile-max\">\n<h3 id=\"title-of-a-story\" class=\"c-title  lrv-u-font-family-primary u-font-size-34 u-font-size-38@desktop-xl lrv-u-line-height-small lrv-u-margin-b-125 \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rebel_Moon_%E2%80%94_Part_Two_The_Scargiver\"><\/span>\n<p>                    Rebel Moon \u2014 Part Two: The Scargiver        <\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>                    <span class=\"lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-font-family-accent lrv-u-font-weight-bold lrv-u-color-brand-primary lrv-u-font-size-16 lrv-u-display-block\">The Bottom Line<\/span><br \/>\n                    <span class=\"c-span  u-font-size-22@tablet u-font-style-italic lrv-u-font-family-secondary\"><\/p>\n<p>    More of the same, which wasn&#8217;t good to begin with.<br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>                            <strong>Release date<\/strong>: Friday, April 19<br \/><strong>Cast<\/strong>: Sofia Boutella, Djimon Hounsou, Ed Skrein, Michiel Huisman, Doona Bae, Anthony Hopkins, Staz Nair, Fra Fee, Cleopatra Coleman, Stuart Martin, Ingvar Sigurdsson, Alfonso Herrera, Cary Elwes, Rhian Rees, Elise Duffy, Sky Yang, Charlotte Maggi, Stella Grace Fitzgerald, Ray Fisher<br \/><strong>Director<\/strong>: Zack Snyder<br \/><strong>Screenwriter<\/strong>s: Zack Snyder, Kurt Johnstad, Shay Hatten<br \/><span><br \/>\n                                    Rated PG-13,<br \/>\n                                2 hours 2 minutes           <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    Such musings are unavoidable when confronted with this would-be epic, which continues the story of a rag-tag group of farmers living on the moon of Veldt being threatened with extinction by the imperialistic Motherworld. Their military forces, the Imperium, are led by Darth Vader, sorry, Admiral Noble (Ed Skrein), who wakes up understandably cranky after his near-death experience in the previous film. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    The farmers, meanwhile, have been organized into a fighting force by Luke Skywalker, sorry, Kora (Sofia Boutella), who\u2019s assembled a mercenary team featuring such warriors as cyborg, lightsword-wielding Nemesis (Doona Bae), perpetually shirtless Tarak (Staz Nair), hunky farmer Gunnar (Michiel Huisman) and former Imperium <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> Titus (Djimon Hounsou). There\u2019s also a very articulate robot, C-3PO (dammit, I mean, Jimmy), voiced by Anthony Hopkins, delivering the best performance in the film without even having to show up on set. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    If you thought the previous installment was all build-up, you may be distressed to learn that the follow-up is\u2026a lot more build-up. Although this time it\u2019s a little faster-paced and leads to an extended battle sequence comprising roughly the film\u2019s second half. It\u2019s hard to tell, however, since Snyder employs so much of his trademark slow-motion that you get the feeling the movie would be a short if delivered at normal speed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    That extended build-up includes, get this, a lengthy ceremony in which many of the heroic characters are presented with awards. (It\u2019s hard to blame Snyder and his co-screenwriters Kurt Johnstad and Shay Hatten for this, because it\u2019s highly unlikely the film itself is likely to receive any.) There\u2019s also an extended scene in which Titus orders his fellow warriors to deliver their backstories, presented in the form of flashbacks that feel like the cinematic equivalent of speed dating.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    The first film was roundly criticized for its lack of memorable dialogue, plot elements or characters, and this one doesn\u2019t do much to improve those aspects unless you consider Titus singing a mournful lament prior to going into battle to be a plus (Hounsou does have a surprisingly nice voice). None of the actors can really be faulted, since they exhibit an impressive commitment to their physically strenuous roles, many of them displaying the sort of toned, muscular physiques that the mere mortals among us can only dream of. Boutella and Skrein are particularly notable in this regard, especially as demonstrated in a kick-ass hand-to-hand fight sequence, taking place on an out-of-control spaceship, that seems to go on for hours (I\u2019m not sure that it actually doesn\u2019t).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    The extended battle scenes with which <em>Rebel Moon<\/em> concludes prove undeniably impressive, which is for the best since they\u2019re the film\u2019s raison d\u2019etre. Snyder provides an ample display of the visual flair and skill for action that have endeared him to legions of fans who exhibit so much dedication that they\u2019re willing to sit through numerous versions of his films. As is the case with these two, for which Snyder has announced he\u2019ll soon be providing R-rated director\u2019s cuts running some three hours each. Which makes one wonder: Why bother to watch these versions that clearly don\u2019t have his full endorsement?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"review-full-cast \/\/ \">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  a-font-primary-xs lrv-u-border-b-1 lrv-u-border-color-grey lrv-u-padding-tb-050\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_credits\"><\/span>\n<p>        Full credits<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>            Production: Stone Quarry, Grand Electric<br \/>Distributor: Netflix<br \/>Cast: Sofia Boutella, Djimon Hounsou, Ed Skrein, Michiel Huisman, Doona Bae, Anthony Hopkins, Staz Nair, Fra Fee, Cleopatra Coleman, Stuart Martin, Ingvar Sigurdsson, Alfonso Herrera, Cary Elwes, Rhian Rees, Elise Duffy, Sky Yang, Charlotte Maggi, Stella Grace Fitzgerald, Ray Fisher<br \/>Director-director of photography: Zack Snyder<br \/>Screenwriters: Zack Snyder, Kurt Johnstad, Shay Hatten<br \/>Producers: Deborah Snyder, Eric Newman, Zack Snyder, Wesley Coller<br \/>Executive producers: Bergen Swanson, Sarah Bowen, Shay Hatten, Kurt Johnstad<br \/>Production designers: Stephen Swain, Stefan Dechant<br \/>Editor: Dody Dorn<br \/>Costume designer: Stephanie Porter<br \/>Composer: Tom Holkenborg<br \/>Casting: Kristy Carlson<br \/><span><br \/>\n                                    Rated PG-13,<br \/>\n                                2 hours 2 minutes           <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"newsletter-cta\">\n<div class=\"lrv-u-margin-tb-125 lrv-u-margin-tb-150@desktop-xl lrv-u-padding-tb-2 lrv-u-flex lrv-u-justify-content-space-between lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-border-b-1 lrv-u-align-items-center lrv-u-flex-direction-column@mobile-max lrv-u-padding-a-2@mobile-max\">\n<div class=\"lrv-u-text-align-center@mobile-max\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  a-font-primary-xs lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"THR_Newsletters\"><\/span>\n<p>        THR Newsletters<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c-tagline  a-font-secondary-italic-s lrv-u-margin-a-00 lrv-u-margin-b-150@mobile-max\">Sign up for THR <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> straight to your inbox every day<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>    <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"c-button larva  lrv-a-unstyle-button lrv-u-cursor-pointer lrv-u-padding-tb-075 lrv-u-padding-lr-150 lrv-u-border-color-brand-accent lrv-u-border-a-1 a-font-accent-bold-s lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase lrv-u-color-brand-accent u-margin-l-150@tablet\" href=\"https:\/\/cloud.email.hollywoodreporter.com\/signup\/\"><\/p>\n<p>    <span class=\"c-button__inner \"><br \/>\n        Subscribe   <\/span><\/p>\n<p>            <span class=\"lrv-a-screen-reader-only\">Sign Up<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
