William Bibbiani TheWrap Those who were underwhelmed the first time around are likely to remain unimpressed. Aug 2, 2024 Full Review Joshua Polanski There Were No Gods Left One of the most quintessentially anthropocentric space fantasies on screen. Sep 8, 2024 Full Review David Chen Decoding Everything (Substack) "The movie has just begun but it’s already clear what these new director’s cuts represent: They are bloodier, meaner, nastier, longer, and deeper versions of the Rebel Moon films that have already been released." Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Cris Kennedy Inner East Review What I like about these two films were the things I liked about the original versions, a certain homage to those fantastical Frazetta illustrations... They're still long and self-indulgent, only now two hours more so. Rated: 3/5 Aug 14, 2024 Full Review Armond White National Review Instead of grasping the seriousness of conquest and resistance as experienced in human history, Snyder makes everything into a humorless Heavy Metal cartoon. Aug 9, 2024 Full Review John Serba Decider Inside the aimlessness of Zack Snyder’s extended take on his already lengthy original film are scenes and moments of really satisfying science fiction. You just gotta get past all the space junk that surrounds them. Aug 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

David M The years of comparing this film to Star Wars tainted my expectations with no benefit to this film. I had a good time enjoying the visuals of the film but left wanting anything of substance to think about after the credits rolled. The story and pacing felt like I was watching a middle school production of Les Misérables. Like that musical I just wanted all the characters dead so I could have a better reason to not watch part two. I will never recommend anyone to watch this movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/21/25 Full Review Dominique T I enjoyed this movie. It had everything I enjoy: the underdog sticking it to the man, kicking *ss and taking names. I honestly don't know what the lemon sucking critics are on about. I tend to ignore them totally, most of them would give a negative review to a beautiful flower garden. If however you think I'm wrong, look these people up and see what kind of movies they give high scores to. A critic who prefers a drama is the last person you should take seriously when they write about a sci-fi movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/19/25 Full Review Char L Absolutely loved this! I love the originality on the hero/heroine’s journey, the action, the adventure, the strong cast and interesting plots woven together. I love the intensity of colour and artful composition. There are criticisms it’s like another Star Wars and the stories have been told before. It holds magic and potency. I felt from the heart, what it seeks to share. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/01/25 Full Review House of L Was a great (would say masterpiece but that belongs to the 4 hour Justice League movie) magnum opus that mixes Star Wars with Lord of the Rings. Great acting, script, and the visual feel is soo beautiful!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/22/25 Full Review Paul C Super underrated. It’s actually excellent. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/25/25 Full Review Fire T. I don’t care what the negative reviews say. I enjoyed the hell out of this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review Read all reviews
