Zack Snyder's 'Rebel Moon' Faces Poor Critical Reception

Despite Controversy and Low Ratings, Netflix Plans to Continue Franchise

Zack Snyder's latest film, 'Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire', has received poor reviews from critics, with a current rating of 24% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The film, which is a space opera based on a concept inspired by Star Wars, has been released in select theaters ahead of a wider digital release on Netflix on December 21, 2023.
Despite the poor critical reception, the film has a higher audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, leading to accusations of review bombing by those who dislike Snyder.
There is controversy surrounding Netflix's decision to withhold the 'Director's Cut' of the film, with fans questioning why this wasn't released in the first place.
The film is part of a planned franchise, with a sequel titled 'Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver' expected to release in April 2024.
