The cinema of Zack Snyder You may like it to a greater or lesser extent, but it does not leave you indifferent. Rebel Moonhis particular spatial review of the seven samurai bathed in pure visual excess, it received enormous criticism but the filmmaker saved his best card: The warrior who leaves marks, the second part, will be 100% warlike. And that, whether you like it or not, makes even the least fans look askance at what he has in his hands. Now we know better what he meant.
Following a strategically released teaser shortly after the premiere of Rebel Moon (Part One) The Fire Girl, Netflix has shown how and on what scale that long-promised definitive battle of its own science fiction universe will be. Answering, by the way, to that question that is worth answering: what happens when the great titan of streaming video gives infinite money to Zack Snyder to mount your own Star Wars?
The result, for now, leaves us with almost three minutes of shootings, explosions and laser sword duels. Not in the George Lucas style, it would be necessary, but faithful to what is expected of the director of The Man of Steel o Sucker Punch.
As we mentioned, Rebel Moon is a total reinterpretation of one of Akira Kurosawa’s best-known films, taking the premise towards action and science fiction without any subtleties. The first part focused on finding seven fearless daredevils to defend a small planet from the wrath of a powerful war faction, while The Warrior Who Leaves Marks, part two, will be entirely focused on the conflict and its development. In between, the process of preparing a group of simple farmers to resist the assault.
The curious thing about the project is that this two-part film does not contain all the fantasy and action originally imagined by Snyder. In fact, although the last part has not yet been released, it is already announced that both films will receive their corresponding extended versions this summer. Which implies a six-hour marathon. Of course, those who know the details – including the actors – assure that it is a very different experience.
In any case, there is still practically a month ahead for the premiere of Rebel Moon (Part Two) The warrior who leaves marks will come to Netflix April 19. Will its actors and director find that redemption with critics? To be fair, for many detractors and fans that is the least of it: no matter what happens, the show is guaranteed. And, according to Snyder’s own calculations, part one, Fire Girl, had a larger audience than Barbie because “that’s how crazy Netflix is.”
