    Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire

    ★★★

    Even as someone who generally likes/defends Snyder's work, this one fell very flat, its very mid.

    I enjoy his vision as usual, but there's definitely a downgrade in the visuals/cinematography compared to when he was working with Larry Fong or Fabian Wagner.

    The action scenes and lore/world are cool, but unfortunately there's a lot missing with regard to character development (especially for the supporting cast) due to the writing, which undermines the entire movie.

    Junkie XL's score goes hard as usual though.

    57/100

    I really like how this brought the franchise back to its roots thematically. And for once the human element of a Godzilla movie was not just passable, but legitimately great.

    Also goddamn, the Godzilla theme hits so hard in this.

    Gabo, a manifestation of toxic and fragile masculinity, meets Tricia, a girlboss in a vulnerable emotional state. What could go wrong?

    Also, Coco Martin's stripper routine left me scarred.

    It was entertainingly bad at least.

    Beautiful stuff.

    THAT Flash scene is one of the best sequences I've seen in a comic book movie. He's been my favourite hero since I was a kid, so it really was such a great experience to watch.
