Rebel Moon: Part Two - The Scargiver hits Netflix in just a few hours, and following an early press screening, the first social media reactions to Zack Snyder's sci-fi sequel have been shared online.
The first film, A Child of Fire, didn't exactly go over very well with critics (23% on Rotten Tomatoes), and while it doesn't sound like The Scargiver is a major improvement, these reactions do seem to be more positive overall.
That said, the initial reactions to Part 1 were also quite positive, so we won't get a proper idea of the critical consensus until the full review embargo lifts at some point tomorrow.
For now, have a read through the posts below (we'll update as more are shared).
In addition to Skrein, Rebel Moon - Part 2 will see the return of Sofia Boutella as Kora, the titular Scargiver, Michiel Huisman, Djimon Hounsou, Doona Bae, Staz Nair, and Anthony Hopkins as the voice of evolving robot guardian Jimmy. The sequel will also feature Fra Fee, Cleopatra Coleman, Stuart Martin, Ingvar Sigurðsson, Alfonso Herrera, Cary Elwes, Rhian Rees, Elise Duffy, Sky Yang, and Charlotte Maggi.
"Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver continues the epic saga of Kora and the surviving warriors as they prepare to sacrifice everything, fighting alongside the brave people of Veldt, to defend a once peaceful village, a newfound homeland for those who have lost their own in the fight against the Motherworld. On the eve of their battle, the warriors must face the truths of their own pasts, each revealing why they fight. As the full force of the Realm bears down on the burgeoning rebellion, unbreakable bonds are forged, heroes emerge, and legends are made."
Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver starts streaming on Netflix on April 19; the extended cuts haven't been given a premiere date.
