Zack Snyder,Man Of Steel And,Kurt Johnstad

The director’s vision of an adult-oriented space opera is compromised by a PG-13 cut and an emphasis on far-too-familiar influences

To call Rebel Moon —Part Two: The Scargiver pastiche is to oversell it. As was the case in Part One—A Child Of Fire, The Scargiver is an unmistakable blend of Akira Kurosawa ’s Seven Samurai and George Lucas ’ Star Wars, so obvious in its make that pointing out the origin of its parts is redundant. The Scargiver doesn’t just smash these classic works together; it repackages them into artful havoc, squeegeed of its blood and glory for the consumption of modern streaming audiences.

This time, their function is to fill out the ranks of Snyder’s play on Seven Samurai, and the plot of Kurosawa’s film informs most of what transpires in The Scargiver. It begins where A Child Of Fire left us, with the Imperium admiral Atticus Noble revived after his violent clash with Kora through technological means inspired by Heavy Metal comic strips.
