Mish mash of Sci fi movies... Keep expectations low.
24 December 2023
Rebel moon is a mish mash of movies and personally I found it left me with similar feelings over this production.

You take a dollop of Star Wars, Seven Samuarai, Lord of the Rings, Potter, John Carter of Mars and Avatar, then just mix them altogether to get this film. So clearly for the maturer viewers of this film, we've seen it all before. To summarise the story it surrounds a young lady out to gather a group of Rebels together to take on a mighty but unconvincing invading empire. So you've heard it all before.

Thel most impressive part of the film is clearly the special effects, which unsurprisingly are very good albeit some ropey moments too, but in this age that's not enough.

The problem for me is two key aspects. The acting & dialogue is woeful, and really the producers could have taken just a bit of time to improve this and we'd have had a decent film.

Quite frankly I just mentally switched off throughout much of it. I was mostly unimpressed but it's still watchable.

With so little out at present and this being on Netflix, I guess it won't cost to watch it. Just go in with low expectations.
