Joe’s starting to become conscious with his interruptions and getting better with them😭 (more character development than anyone in the film)
Except when he says “we all interrupt each other” only interrupter is him lol, enjoy them all regardless tho
One min in and he already interrupted Alex’s monster energy can joke
Joe's the real child of fire lol
😂😂
Interruptor Joe
Rebel Moon is what happens when you skip all the cutscenes in a video game to get to the final boss fight.
I see it the other way around. Skip all the game play and only watch the cutscenes...in slow mo lol
It wasn't even the final boss. It's the mid boss.
Or write your school book report with discount spark notes.
When you watch Wolfenstein cutscenes story instead of the whole gameplay
Rebel Moon…The Day Before😅
Zach Snyder is one of my favorite examples of "Failing Upwards"
The reason why snyder has gotten to where he has is that when you give him a plot and script that were handled by someone with actual talent he does a good job. Watchmen and 300 being solid examples of this, comic books which he basically copyed page for page. And because of this, studio execs assumed that he knew how to tell a story. They were wrong.
I agree, although I liked 300 and Sucker Punch (it was silly, cringe, dark, and weird) because they worked. Rebel moon does not.
Would you consider Watchmen a success??? In many conversations, that's the go-to first example to show that Snyder consistently botches adaptations. 300 I liked at the time, but in retrospect...I'm increasingly sure Snyder was being 100% serious and thought he was making high art. He's the only one not in on the joke with that movie
It does make me really excited for those Ayn Rand adaptations he's been talking about for ages, though. Snyder has the magical talent of completely missing the point of anything he adapts and utterly butchering it and I cannot wait to see that power used for good.
@@thekillerprawn
@@shinnyshin7792 Watchmen kinda needed the dumbing down. It failed to capture the deep satire meant for actual comic fans, but that made it mainstream enough for it to be enjoyable. Failing upwards.
"World-borrowing" as opposed to world building. Hahaha, thank you Alex for summing this film up perfectly.
I'm a little confused. Why exactly is that a bad thing? World of Warcraft has done it for years, and it's worked out for them.
@@VexJinks now THAT is a wild take
@@VexJinks It's not if you do it well and make it your own. This is not.
@@VexJinksbecause they did a shitty job. It’s like a developer using premade assets in a video - great if you pull it off, but on a shitty game it’s just another thing that sucks
@@LizardSpork You are correct. This film's writing and visual aesthetics have as much depth and originality as the equivalent of a 10 year old sitting in a sandbox alone smashing his GI Joe, Star Wars, Avatar, and Marvel figures together alongside some 40k minis and an odd anime figure he stole from his brother's shelf without permission.
I loved that the robot ran away when it realised the script was terrible, and it didn't return until the film was over lol
I really want the story of what it's been up to, showing back up with fucking antlers and such....just not written by snyder
White South Africans can’t catch a break being cast as villains.. Anthony Hopkins is awesome in anything he’s in.
😂😂😂
Best comment. The robot legit killed a dude and left without saying a word.
The black crow the spider and the cantina copied scene with the guy with the weird bodily attachement😂😂😂😂…just so odd
Funniest part for me was when they met Tarak and within 3 minutes they were willing to risk indentured servitude
The stakes are ridiculous. The generic empire is pursuing them, wrecking civilizations, and burning resources all over a few hundred bushels of wheat. Everyone that watched this movie lost an IQ point and likely got a headache.
Mel Brooks said, "Take all your time on writing the script. Because when your on set, time is money. So take ALL THE TIME ON THE SCRIPT!" And you know what? He's right.
and modern film makers say, "fuck you, Mel Brooks! I don't need a script, I have CGI!!!!!!!!"
@@curtisbresslerthis is why you still see physical comedy in movies and not CGI.
You’re…
Nolan took 5 years to write the crap that was Tenet. More time =/= quality.
@@Jarekx2007Tenet still outweighs Snyder's entire filmography, so the point stands.
“This is what AI written Star Wars would be like,” is what I kept thinking the whole time. It’s not terrible visually, but the story is so confused.
It's a crap movie
Yet somehow still better than the recent Disney star wars
The story isnt confused, it's just skipped. Like Joe said, 7 Samurai is a great story thats been told many times in different mediums, but in tbks film they literally skipped the bonding and conflict between the "7 Samurai" that makes that story good in the first place. Like why tf would we fast forward through THE MOST IMPORTANT PARTS smh. For a 2 hour film, we really got nothing of substance
@@prolastmedia6171 its a pretty simple story too. Its not like you have to be a gigabrain to pull it off. The cast in this movie simply had no chemistry. Its funny because the only time I felt any chemistry going on was between Kora and Charlie Hunham’s character (forget his name) then he ends up betraying them like 10 minutes later.
Even visually it's mucky during night scenes
The lens flares in this movie will give you a migraine or a seizure.@@KalomikaArts
To me it felt like a run of the mill JRPG. The main character went from place to place adding people to her party, then went to fight the final boss. The end. Cya in act 2.
kora in the first 10 minutes : "Love was beaten out of me. I was taught love was weakness. I can't give or receive love"
kora later : "We were encouraged to find a lover as partner. We would fight for each other"
She contradicted herself
After that I couldn't take any dialogue seriously. It's pure garbage
yeah or how she says she lived in privilege, but then continues to whine about how bad her life was being sent from war to war.
Oh, I forgot about that...
A lover isn't the same as being in love. A one night stand is a lover as is a friend with benefits. That's why she said lover, not partner.
@@DS9TREKShe uses "lover" because it is a reference to a supposed practice within the ancient Theban army, of using a 150 pairs of Lovers. The idea in both the Theban army and the movie, is that you are likely to fight harder alongside someone you love. Not something you would do for a one night stand.
I think you misunderstood her point, she makes it clear what she meant when she talks about her past. The point is love is a trauma for her.
Does anyone know why the Imperium would require sustenance from a town of like 100 people? It's a very strange plot point that I just can't make sense of. It really makes the universe feel small.
I mean, the betrayers, tyranids, necrons and eldars are really testing their resources. That or the movie doesn't make sense
There are plausible reasons but I don’t think anything in the movie itself would point to them.
@@jayhartRIC True. I really feel like the story would have greatly benefitted if it was presented as a TV series.
I went on the website and it basically gave the basically the first explanation I cane up with. Basically the Motherworld is low on resources so they have to take resources from other worlds.
@@jayhartRICmind you they were offering triple market value. It’s not that they are just taking. My guess is they had provisions but they can’t return until mission accomplished. So they need to restock while deployed. A regular villain trope would just have them take it all without payment.
Zack Snyder trying to do Kurosawa is like Helen Keller trying to play darts.
I’d bet on Keller hitting the bullseye before Zack actually succeeding with his own script lol
so you're saying there's a chance
He’s the definition of missing the point.
Ouch
Star Wars? It felt more like a softer version of 40k. Just the way the "Motherworld" is predicted. The slain king being some kind of overarching ruler, just like the emperor of mankind. Same with the way the soldiers and weapon looked like. Also the commisar looking admiral, the red robed dudes with the holy books following the admiral felt like tech priests and the music was also 40k-ish
Yeah totally 40K vibe!
The Robot section of their military was even called Mechanus Militarium, might as well have been named Adeptus Mechanicus. They even had Tech Priest looking dudes. Even if you ignore the terrible writing and plot, he just straight up stole designs from other IPs for his visuals. Like the Rebel's look like Mad Max extras, the bodyguard even looked like she's cosplaying Furiosa.
Yep, that was the feeling I was getting, trying to do 40k without being able to use the IP
People forget Star Wars started as a Flash Gordon wannabe. It’s not impossible for this kind of movie to be done well. The editing needs to be better
@@supermelonbread Well the movie did need to be cut to meet Netflix's PG requirement
“World borrowing.” Yeah that was the perfect way to explain this
I don't normally like Alex's takes but, "unsolicited dick pick" to sci-fi is one of the funniest descriptions of a movie I've ever heard.
He's often, if not always right
He's a harsh critic, but honest with his feelings
Fun Fact: Rotten Tomatoes users started voting on the film 1 week before release. They never saw the film. They already got it to 70% before it was available to watch 😂
Snyder cult
@@ANTIStraussian One day, Netflix is gonna hired Snyder to make a Cyberpunk 2077 movie and we will see the real Unification War.
The movie had a limited theater release like a week before it came to Netlfix.
@@ImCptnAwesome And because it's listed as Streaming, anyone was able to put up a review. Already saw everything on Campea
@fulcrum6760 what's Cyberpunk gotta do with this movie? Might as well have said No Man's Sky or Battlefied 4 or Skyrim and it would make as much sense
I appreciate Joe dressing up like Cap'n Crunch for this one.
You guys need get on Blue Eye Samurai, outstanding show in every way. Visuals, characters development, interesting premise, great villains. 10/10.
Man it’s been slept on!!!!!! I loved all of it
It was, but this is way underrated
All true..but the premise is a little too racist for me. The main character's motivation is basically to kill 3 innocent folks to get at one...still innocent person who jus happened to be her father...i just find it gross.
Good job for finding a way to make a positive comment on a Rebel Moon review video.
None of them were innocent lol, it’s pointed out time and time again that they’re all murderers and rapists.
I cannot wait for Cavill and Amazon to put out 40K and everyone screams "Look, they're ripping off Rebel Moon!"
No. Don't put that out there. Geezus. Henry has taken on the massive responsibility. I'm terrified what will see the light of day enough.
@@myflatlineconstruct Henry, who's spent his career doing terrible projects, is not magically going to put out the next prestige television smash hit. Just saying. Keep your expectations low.
@@hihihi1q23 Now that you mention it. I really like Henry Cavill as a person, I think he's a really cool guy. But I don't remember ever seeing him in a good role. And that's a sad thought. He's real personality is closer to Superman than what we got in Snyder's movies
@@hihihi1q23 hard disagree, he hasnt been in the best movies but we have only really seen him as an actor, a pawn in the directors game. Now he will be helming a cinematic universe. We cant really use his acting resume to assume how this will go since there is not that much in common. Like being a bad airhost(ess) is going to have little effect on your ability to fly a plane, despite the closeness of those jobs.
@@HighostrichI think he nailed his role as The Witcher, it’s just everything around him just became terrible as time went on.
i am with Alex 100%. he cannot keep coming with this same old tired excuse. i believed it when it happened the first time, the second time i had empathy for the loss he was dealing with, but what’s going on now? how is it happening again?
Ask netflix
@@venomvsspidey11netflix approached snyder and said “lets do the 2 cuts like you did for DC so it can inflate streaming views”
and zack said “that sounds great, i can release a shitty movie and then when the shitty directors cut comes out everyone will be on their hands and knees praising me because its a fraction better”
What Alex didn't mention is that this time, they literally made the movie then cut it just so they could release a Snyder cut later. It was a decision made by Netflix, you can look it up, each entry in the trilogy is going to have a Snyder's cut and the first one is scheduled for April of next year or something like that. Yes, they actually told him to make a long movie, then butcher it just to cash on the "Snyder Cut" meme.
Regardless of whether it was Netflix or Snyder's decision to create a PG13 version and release a Snyder cut later on, it comes across as doing a patch for a movie, which should not be encouraged in any way. Imagine if this ends up becoming the norm.
@@taigaaisaka6305 this is one reason i dont listen to AJ on stuff that i like or im a fan of,sure its good to laugh on the reviews,but sometimes they overlook minor details that change the whole picture...
The thing with Rebel moon is that that the introduction of the characters that join the Kora as the movies progresses isnt done organically but rather its almost like each new party member has this small segment specifically dedicated to him or her after which they kinda disappear into the background as the movie is too busy introducing even more party members for us. Also why does the film ditch the robot after the start. That robot was probably the best part of the whole movie for me. I think Kora could have just teamed up with that robot and maybe the potential love interest from the village along with the young soldier. For example what was the point of having that general in the party since he doesnt really contribute anything else to the party than an extra person who can use a gun or the guy who is really a prince? Also where did the sister of Commander Bloodmoon vanish in the end?
Fr. Imagine getting anthony hopkins on your shitty film then barely using him at all
Whoever said that this is “The New Star Wars” first doesn’t deserve to review anything ever
Makes sense to me. Aside from Andor, Star Wars has been shit for years
They meant the Holiday Special..."Whip, stir, whip, stir"
Hack Snyder is a disgrace 😂
@@AGuyCalledHarry Andor was low-key boring, and at least when the first Star Wars movie was released it didn’t receive shit reception unlike Rebel Moon’s first movie right now.
Damn, that guy is now in hiding
I value Alex’s opinion as much as I value joes as much as I value other joes. I like hearing all your guys opinions. Your guys opinions are all unique and bring value. Honestly I just love this show I love sitting down after putting the kids to sleep and just watching you guys talk.
Last night I watched you guys play stellaris nexus and after I spent hours watching long version stellaris play, never even heard of stellaris until you guys played it. Where have I been
Stellaris is awesome! A lot of dlc but the base game is amazing too!
I like Alex cuz even though he's a fan of something, he doesn't go easy on it like Joe does.
He’s an angry pissy fruitcake 😂😂😂 the movie ain’t that good but no way it’s a 3….
Yeah, but he dont like you. He hates everything
From time to time but his role is to be a hater and in this episode he went too far. Just straight up contradicting himself to be a downer. This movie was original? WTF is in 2023? everything we know and love borrows from past stories.
Joe doesn't go easy on it, it's just Alex overexaggerating and you agreeing with him
@@liquiddude9855 You need to watch their reviews of good movies, man. When he likes something, he's all in.
Kurosawa was a legendary director. Maybe you guys should occasionally do a classic film review? There are so many classic masterpieces that looking back at some would be fun as it helps provide full context for the knock offs like Rebel Moon.
Sadly, videos which feature "old movies" don't get much attention.
@@HEARTS-OF-SPACE True, unless it's reaction videos to old movies.
It would alienate the viewer base due to its inaccessibility, language and the zietgeist of modern cinema.
@@indrajithak47politely put sir.
If you take Fritz Lang and follow up with Kurosawa, you have the basis for so much of modern cinema, from just these two director's.
It should of been a tv series spaced out over a whole season so you have more time to develop and care about the characters.
There was probably a budget limit and the show would not cut it. I think as a show this wouldn't live up to it. You need a good writer to keep the audience engaged when nothing is happening. I'll be honest that even as a movie with good effects, I found the plot a little dumb. It's just not believable. I've only watched 30 minutes, maybe might conclusion might change
Snyder would likely spend 5 minutes setting up themes - get distracted by having a fight scene - abandon all themes. It’d be the same shit
That was absolutely what I was thinking. If it were stretched out a bit for the characters and story to be fleshed out and left to stew a bit, this would have been pretty decent. It just felt rushed and convoluted.
there is nothing to develop or care about these characters tho
Snyder's attention doesn't last that long.
I love Alex so much haha. Also, those 6 layers of watermarks are getting out of control ! This movie felt like a fan-made recap of a season of 8 to 10 hours of episodes I missed 😂...
I'm sorry that you're so miserable.
This has to be most accurate description of the movie i have read. 😂
I love stupid people complaining about copyright protections, cause they're too dumb to know what YT creators have to deal with lol.
He really is a Michael Bay of slow mo in every sense. Zack can work but only if his reigned in and guided by great source aterial. Just like michael bay
Michael Bay, knows what he is and has had a decent film in recent years tho with Ambulance.. Zack hasn’t - he made ZSJL - but that was in 2016-2017 and even then he needed 4 hours to tell the story *and it still had deleted scenes* .
They went to the same school
@@Captainkebbles1392lmfao really?
@@Quantum-tv-please-get-a-jobMichael Bay and Zack Synder both started out directing commercials before moving onto directing movies.
That's basically any people with an idea really. Goerge Lucas needed it , for better or worse. Not everyone can execute an idea perfectly, but a balance when doing this kind of project.
There are so many slow motion shots in every scene that I was surprised we didn’t get a slow motion show of someone sneezing. Zack Snyder thinks it’s cool do to slow motion shots but forgets that it eventually becomes annoying
Name a more iconic duo
The slo mo is a good way to make the movie longer for longer watch time on Netflix, lolol
@@FactoryDanknowing Snyder though, he has no problem having tons of footage without all that slomo. He probably has a Rebel Moon Snyder cut
Zack Snyder is using the tired Matrix formula of slow fast mo that he did in 300
Not when Sam Peckinpah did it.
The guy randomly wearing a dress shirt and tie in a space opera was the final piece of my belief being un-suspended.
You hit the nail on the head, Alex when you said that (paraphrasing) 'Snyder took the movies he's watched but doesn't understand them' - that is what people have been saying since Watchmen essentially, but those movies got carried by solid visuals and a solid script (Watchment in particular was a decent adaptation). He is not what people think he is.
>Snyder took the movies he's watched but doesn't understand them
Thats a typical alex critique, so goddamn stupid and over used.
Wish this show would ditch him.
thank god someone else sees it.
@@dmolmalowski It's not a typical Alex critique, it's something people have been saying about Snyder since Watchmen. Maybe if you hear it repeated so often there is some merit to it?
@@Direksone no moron, it's Alex parroting shit, the "they don't understand" shit is over done on the Internet for everything.
Alex can't come up with original critiques, he needs to parrot stuff.
Again, he is a dumb person's idea of a smart person.
Alex guy who gave 7 score to Thor 4 enough said. Zack definitely understand better than most other directors when comes to superhero movies he is far from bad as people are bitching too much when comes to his movies. And people also ignore some stupid craps or complain less in other movies they like while complain in Zack movies
I think we gave Zach Snyder enough chances. You literally released a film that should have been R to only promise the original version a few months later? How pretentious can you be?
He claims that Netflix wanted this pg13 version first but who knows if that’s true
I don't think the intentions were pretentious; it seems like it was done to compromise between what Snyder wanted and what Netflix wanted. Which is fair enough. But to an outside audience it's a bizarre decision.
@@octogigasJust make a 2 hour film... every other director has done it before.
Its never Snyders fault, its his way of making a stupid Snyders cut.
idk why there needs to be a director’s cut for a film that won’t see a wide theatrical or home video release. it’s not like Netflix didn’t give him carte blanche to create his own entire scifi cinematic universe
I think its hilarious Korra tells them exactly what the imperium would do to them all if they try to trade with them, then the townsfolk are shocked it happens after they dismissed her advice instantly because one guy thought he could make money 😂
“ *It’s Star Wars for Grown Ups* “ is what I keep seeing… but Empire Strikes Back, Rogue One, ROTS, Andor are all deal with heavy material *THEMATICALLY* .. seeing a bunch of sexual assault doesn’t make something “For Adults”
Often when "x for grown ups" is being advertised it ends up being for teenage edgelords instead.
@CrazyxEnigma - it’s why I hated his DC stuff cos he said himself “It’s for adults” and it’s like ‘no dude - it’s goofy comic book characters that have tons of heart and good writing - they’re not meant to be edgy’ 🤦🏽♂️ at least the DCEU is over
You can’t have AngryJoe show without Alex. I need his objective opinion it balances out the dynamic.
Edit: you know I never knew how many narrow minded people there were in the world. Guess I do now.
That does not make sense as joe has been doing this stuff by him self from the start these 2 guys just happen to join randomly. I mean its not called angryalexshow
Objective opinion is an oxymoron. I like Alex a lot but his weird worship on this channel as though he is some infallible deity is beyond strange.
I don't think any opinion is without some bias, Alex's included
@@Maxrepfitgm all I read was googoogaga. Grow up
Yep and Alex is more realistic while Joe tries to be Toxic Positive a lot now. Ever since the She Hulk era Joe has been the same way trying to find the positive in a poo on the floor. Also, Joe just cuts off Alex and OJ when they're talking and also says "We" a lot when expressing his opinion or review. So I also think a lot of us just have negative feelings towards Joe because of the way he has become.
"He wanted to be Frank Herbert, but he ended up Brian Herbert"
Bruh... Alex stealing the show.
When Prince Tarak ran to the griffin in slow motion only for him to jump in even slower slow mo, that is when I knew this was a Zack Snyder movie.
No. When she was farming and throwing seed in slow motion.
@@the9prince I hated that cut so much. It reminds me of dune with its perfume advert aesthetics, except dune makes it work because they're supposed to be these woozy visions/drug trips, but in rebel moon they're LITERALLY JUST FARMING
How does Noble get a stupid wtf slow-mo scene losing his teeth, and then 5 minutes later he's revived after going through Rasputin level death, and he's got all his teeth. Why the hell would you give us a wtf slow-mo scene of him losing them and then 5 minutes later not have that shown still? That's a good breakdown of the movie.
Because it looks cool!!! DOYUGHFHHF /s
Her irrational hatred for him was weird. he hadn't done anything in film to her for that lvl of suicidal hate.
@EnolaGay15 other than almost kill her and her friends and her entire village? This movie had many many many issues but I don't think this is one of them
@@thekillerprawn by the movie's own admission she was a recent arrival to the village. 1 maybe 2 years living there? That would be anger certainly, wanting to kill him sure. Not the suicidal hatred she shows. She was willing to kill herself to kill a man already going to die, because of a crashing spaceship falling on him.
That's an irrational level of hatred deeply personal.
I mentioned this in another review of this movie: I hope the team making 40k TV/Movie for Amazon product by Henry Cavill will check this movie and say to all the production members and writers "This is exactly what we need to avoid when making 40k".
Yeah snyder really just watered down the imperium aesthetic and called it a day, didnt even bother to change the name lmao
How much do you want to bet Snyder got the imperial costume out of Henry Cavill's cosplay closet?
Haven't seen anyone mention the alien using a human to speak via tentacles is pretty much a miniature colorful cutesy version of the "Independence Day" alien using the Data actor to speak. Alone it would be a fun lil scene but combined with so many other references its just a collage of scenes I've seen before.
it reminded me of naked lunch lol
@@usamahendrix838 "Rebel Moon" the film for when you're in the mood to reminisce about much better films! Lol
Rumor has it part two will feature a Kuato cameo!
Open your mind...
I can't wait!
Zack Snyder has an amazing ability to make beautiful films you can't remember, care about, like or stay awake to watch to the end 😅
Beautiful? This is easily one of the most ugly movies I've ever seen. The shallow depth of field and odd blur in every single shot was painful to see.
Unless you call grayscale beautiful.
You may be colorblind.
The script is like a child wrote it. By that i mean me as a child. I would add light sabres and dragons and all the cool stuff from all the movies i liked and mash them together. lol. This movie even had a slow mo smelling dirt scene that was in Gladiator.
It literally does feel like edgy ‘Star Wars’ fanfiction written by someone who hasn’t hit puberty yet.
The guy with the weird bodily attachment in the cantina scene was 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@stormtraitor6545litterly the issue with Zack, he likes capes and costumes he doesn’t know what makes it interesting, ie the human story.
The movie had slow mo for a falling grain of rice ffs
@unguviolet285 the first fight when it goes into slow mo it felt like I was back in 2012
I always listen to Alex when it comes to movie reviews. I guarantee 99% of the time he doesn't like it neither will I.
Does Alex like ANYTHING?
He was fr getting going when he was talking about his “directors cut” bs - then Joe cut him off again.. I wanna hear his full thoughts but he never gets longer than 20 seconds to say what he wants
@@USS_Sentinel I mean there aren't really that many Great modern movies...The few that everyone agrees on being great, he normally agrees as well..
So if he does like something you hate than what will you do. As i see what people do to alex when he actually like a movie people are hating on.
he does its just yall like to hear only hate stuff.@@USS_Sentinel
SNYDER: This is my masterpiece
AUDIENCE & CRITICS: Stinks
SNYDER: You didn't let me finish. That was the appetizer. The real movie is still in the oven!😂
Dont mess with Alex...shot fired ...ur so right
He's a fkin man-child 😂
It’s almost like they’re making bad films on purpose now. Wtf is actually happening to film recently?
Netflix is
Zack Snyder
Filmento, made the point better than I can put into words - he pointed out that - during his review of Army of The Dead - Zack breaks down a scene that he describes as “The obligatory heist planning scene” and Filmento pointed out your script shouldn’t have an “obligatory” anything. Snyder essentially strides to meet these cliches and plot points - but does nothing new with them 🤷🏾♂️ that’s the best answer I can give : They’re not striving to make something original.
Streaming service desperate for content throwing millions at well known but second rate directors with no writing talent or restraint so they can self-indulge.
Zack literally stated he makes films he would watch. Films he likes. I love a few of his films but studio interference is still needed in some ways to keep the creator from going "too wild".
Alex does the best reviews! It’s always to the point and he doesn’t hold back.
Is this the first movie to come out in early access like a game and Zack will update and patch it later lol
Modern gaming! Uh I mean movies!
Rebel Starfield
Alex's analogy with the message is the most accurate I've ever heard! :D
The Seven Samurai in space was already done in Roger Corman’s 1980 film Battle Beyond The Stars. Despite its faults in that film I knew why every warrior joined the cause, can’t say that about any of the recruits in Rebel Moon.
But prince tarak was so mysterious and cool, who care about the motivations that drive characters' actions? Thats not what movies are about! Theyre about slow motion and uhhh, ummm, more slow motion!!
Couldn’t stop thinking about Rick and Morty. Everybody was like “You son of a b****h, Im in!” 😄
I liked 3 things 1 - The energy weapons effect is cool, where it splashes molten stuff around when it hits. 2 - Hopkins Bot 3 - The one scene where the guy does the 300 slo-mo back arched jump with a spear, thrusts it through the gunner cockpit and the gunner dodges and shoots him. That made me laugh.
EVERYTHING else was shit.
Fan: George Lucas wrote some pretty terrible dialog.
Snyder: Hold my Berellian space beer...
A lot of slowmo action going on in this movie even the unnecessary dropping of the seeds in the early parts of the film lol 😂
My cousins watched this movie during Christmas and I kept thinking to myself, “isn’t this plagiarism?” 😂😂 glad yall think the same.
You know it's bad when the best character is the robot narrator. lol.
I mean, it IS Anthony Hopkins...
The robot they forgot about for half the movie?
Like the young solider who stops the men from raping the girl just leaves the movie too?
Tarak is basically Anakin winning his freedom through a bet...
By taming Buckbeak from Harry Potter.
we can fly our ships lightyears and lightyears that require the energy of an entire solar system just to make one jump, but we need you to grown our wheat; we haven't figured that part out
The best part of Rebel Moon was when I deleted it 3/4 of the way thru and forced myself to finish Candy Cane Lane.
I'm sure Netflix don't care considering it's number 1 worldwide 🤣😂🤣
He's a "master tactician" that allowed his army walk into an obvious trap.
Napoleon was a master tactican too, and what happened to him? He walked into the Duke of Wellington's trap at Waterloo.
Grow up.
Thank you Joe for being one of the few TH-camrs calling out this mess as more of a Warhammer ripoff than a Starwars ripoff. Maybe Disney passed on this because they know not to mess with Games Workshop's legal department? lol
Thank the God Emperor we have the Henry Cavil Amazon projects to look forward to.
Snyder and netflix will try to raise a copyright infringement with them, which will be so funny
Appreciate the way you managed the review this time Joe
I appreciate that!
@@AngryJoeShowIt's fine if you guys hate the movie, but why make fun of the positive reviews and take shots at people that liked it? People should be allowed to like it just like you guys should be allowed to not like it.
@@JediKnightoftheTifaCultBecause some people lie on purpose, like when they get paid to write a good review on an objectively bad movie in pretty much every way.
@@JediKnightoftheTifaCulti think that people liking the movie largely signifies an ever worsening decline in media literacy, which is good for no one. Though i can see your point that making fun isnt the best way to adress this issue
Wowza! Alex mentioned 13 Assassins in the last few seconds of this review, and that is one of the best Takashi Miike’s movies. Alex just levels up!
I like hearing Alex’s take on things cuz EVEN when he may come across as overly cynical and critical, his point usually still has merit (idk who these people are that HATE Alex just because they can’t handle a critical opinion on something, but I’m hoping to God they’re not grown-ass adults).
Aj I love how you take the viewers feedback and trying to implement changes to help the reviews and always love your commentary. Alex on point always, definitely a fan favorite. Oj you need to speak more also always love you funny inputs.
I agree with Alex....WHAT THE HECK! We sat and watched this mess and I was like " the imperium"? And they all look like 40k soldiers, down to the uniforms and the emperors seals on the infantry chest plates. If they would have just put in space marines from 40k I would have been 100% in and went "oh OK, let's go". I mean the tech priests even. BRO
Alex is a great balance to the rest of the team. But no, I think you guys all play off each other well and generally have nice back and forth. AJS team is a good fit 👍🏼
daaaamn Alex went hard on Snyder 😅
He's not wrong though.
@@chaddubois8164 maybe, the only snyder movie I watched was Suckerpunch back when it released but i dont remember much
Alex is awesome, Joe has also gotten way better with his reviews and critique. Most of the stuff on Rotten Tomatoes are bots or paid corporate shills. There are companies that are paid to literally create good ratings on these websites. I love Dune and thought Brian did an alright job, The Machine Crusade and the House novels are great. Frank got a little far out towards the end of the original series but the first 3-4 books are masterpieces.
No Joe has not, he’s one of the worst critics on yt. He does literally no homework and is incapable of critical thinking outside of his own emotions
@@whatsinthebox9732Sounds like you're self projecting. Loser. 😂
If most of the stuff on RT was bots or paid shills, no movie would get bad reviews lol. Rebel Moon straight up has a 23%.
much of it is bots, its well documented. Its usually within the first 24-72 hours, so the initial box office is in play. The companies pay for a certain number of ratings/reviews but as time goes on, it's diluted by real users. Now not everything is always perfect and there are many variables. Some movies are so bad/divisive that even high numbers of bots will cope to control averages. I think the 23% is critics only, which obviously can't be bots but are often bought. ;) @@hihihi1q23
i mean u could just unsub?@@whatsinthebox9732
They ripped off the whole Thanos/Gamora so blatantly.
Keep doing your thing guys, you scale makes perfect sense.
That um... that wasn't a sentence, buddy.
@@geoffrogers7590 no one gives a shit
@@geoffrogers7590"🤓 erm actually it's not a sentence"- some dumbass
Yes it are
i like the part where kora said "its slow-mo time"
The afrikaans accents for the soldiers were gold. Yelling "Voetsek!" was the highlight of the movie!
Overuse of slow motion, flashbacks, and infodumps hurts the story. The story doesn't give enough time to the main cast of warriors. The villains are cartoonishly evil. I could keep going all day. One good thing I will say is that the alien races looked pretty cool. That's about it.
Alex is on fire in this vid
Yeah. Calling anyone who doesn't agree with him an idiot was so 🔥🔥. Lmao. The dude is a literal man-child.
Alex is a great critic, like we used to say about old school sports coaches "harsh, but fair".
Get him to review Blue Eyed Samurai.
He's anything but fair. 😂
You know it’s bad when the joe’s can’t even have fun or be positive about it!!
Alex was on a roll with this one, total savage. I agree with him though.
So if he liked it than what would do to him??
There is noo way this was better that Aquaman 2. That movie was over criticized. To me it was enjoyable
I think the only good movie Zack has done is Watchmen, and that might be because someone else made that story. So he's good with visuals but really needs a good writer backing him up like JJ Abrams does.
How do you feel about his 300 movie?
@Godzolfman to say the truth I haven't seen it but the trailers never impressed me. It has always seemed way too much style over substance but to be fair I know I know I can't say I have the full context. That's just my initial impressions.
He is a director as long as it’s already written!
I actually thought Sucker Punch was one his better movies personally.
hated sucker punch but liked his dawn of the dead. which was written by James Gunn💀
i was amazed how good a movie can look while beeing that shallow, this is such a hot mess i was baffled - i love when zack does have the regie but it seems he cant produce for the love of god.
Also felt like this maybe would have worked better as a series? anyways its kinda sad for the promise in there and not delivering.
The ships look like ass
Zack Snyder found chatGPT and used it to write a movie script.... fml
I think visually this movie does have stunning moments but this movie, even though it’s a Part One of Two, still plays it TOO safe tbh. And like knowing Zack, he’s willing to take risks and kill characters whether they’re important or slightly important. But even when they give context on things in-universe, I’m still dumbfounded and confused. Honestly, this movie was okay. It wasn’t that great but there were some visually stunning stuff I genuinely liked. And the gratuitous slow-mo stuff is fine in his other works, but I actually became visually unpleasant watching it in this movie because there are scenes where it’s absolutely unnecessary. Rebel Moon is definitely an IP that has potential for more stories that I am interested in seeing in this world, but with these latest stories, it has the potential of going up but also falling down hard.
Well the scene where one of them jump & stabbed through a SPACESHIP window is just hilarious.
Dude, u can't even make dent on today's space shuttle windows, let alone break it 🤣
I liked it. But I agree too much slow mo
Any examples of the stunning visuals? I thought the entire movie looked awful.
I’m so glad Alex is apart of AJS!
😂😂😂
I found this film very entertaining, and am interested to see where it goes in part 2 and beyond if Snyder gets a green-light for more (though I agree it was a very 40k like setting).
That said… wow… the movie forgot to actually give us character development (or even background and personality) for about 1/2 the cast. Can you tell me anything about the sword woman (which the villain tells us is seeking vengeance for dead kids apparently), the prince of a fallen kingdom (again, the villain tells us that in a single line?) and the general (he’s a great tactician… apparently)? Lol. We basically only know something about the lead girl and the farmer, that’s it, and most of their development happens in the village before they go off searching for their ragtag band of people to help the village.
Overall, I really enjoyed it, but man… take the 15 minutes spent on sword lady fighting the spider girl and use that to do some character development it would have been a lot better.
Also, this was a streaming film. Why is there a “Snyder Cut”?! Why couldn’t they just just release a longer film with the cut things now?!
I agree this movie had me captivated , i was never bored
Anyone notice the Mother World's ship looked like the one from Space Battleship Yamato?
Glad I'm not the only one to think that
Yes…that and the bad guys ship looked like the ones in man of steel…like a bug
I have never agreed with Alex more than I have here. Zack Snyder is a fad 😂
hes a hack
@@shaggjones4854 aren't we all?
@@Kranitoko no? im good at my job...
@@shaggjones4854 okay.
more like a fraud
Alex as usual didn't take very long to insult the intelligence of people who's opinion differs from him.
Already know it's shit, can't wait to watch this later! 😂
The Brian Herbert comparison is savage lmaoo
Zack copying things without understanding what made the original good? NO WAY!
Yeah, this is exactly what i expected. And i don't care if there will be a director's cut with blood and gore. That won't save anything. The guys are absolutely right: He knew what Netflix wanted and yet he still made the movie this way.
All three of you add a great dynamic that I think really makes the show one of a kind! Great video as always!
Critics are useless if they are not honest. You guys are great, if something is shit I want to know that it is shit, thats the whole point of a review
Small minds listen to reviews, a normal person will make his own mind up 🤷🏽♂️
@@stephenbennett6108 You're the kind of person people laugh at for paying money to watch garbage in a cinema. Finding people who have the same taste as you and then watching their reviews is a great way to find movies to watch
I agree with a lot of what y'all said in this. Most, if not all, characters felt 1 dimensional and I walked away feeling like a lot of character moments were cut out of this film. For example, they make a big deal about the rebel leader dying, but shit, I've only known him for 5 minutes and the most I've seen him do is give some lukewarm speech to his troops! I don't care about his sacrifice whatsoever! It feels like half of this movie was cut out. Even if I did just turn my brain off, I think this movie would be hard to enjoy.
Don't listen to the idiots that say you're not allowed to critique thing. I don't agree with all your takes, and sometimes I think you go a bit far, but you always have solid reasons for your opinions and I can always respect your view. Never stop being you Angry Joe, its a big reason you're one of my favorite creators!
When Alex says, the review is from "by Zack Snyder's mom" lmao that got me.
Im used to be a fan of Zack's movie, haven't seen this movie yet, but based on Army of Thieves/Ded, I can see where this goes and Im afraid Im not going to like it, we'll see.
Army of the Dead was insanely bad. I was hoping for a cool zombie movie since he did the Dawn of the Dead remake.
@@joet7136 exactly
Zack plagiarized COD Zombies basically but with no likable characters and good lore.@@joet7136
the real star wars killer is disney
Not a fan of rape being used as a plot device.
great review Joe, continue the great show.
Let Alex cook!! He is always on the money with these reviews!
Nah.
My biggest criticism is that the side characters had basically no character development.
Just watched it and I freaking loved every moment of the movie. And no, I haven't watched the review (exempt checking the score given). I am worried that it would just spoil my enjoyment, pointing all reasons why I objectively should not like the movie. Not gonna happen. Loving my blissful ignorance. 😎
