Seen. It’s more Battle Beyond the Stars than Seven Samurai (and without Robert Vaugh or Valkyrie that being very generous). The Snyder ‘Star wars’ is a trick. Sucker punched again.
Sure, an oppressive empire, battle bots and dingy cluttered ships but we see that is so much sci-fi in the wake of SW it doesn’t even count. When Doona Bae (who I admire) whips out her double light-dadao, that’s as SW as it gets. Then there’s also a lot of hooded cloaks but no Jedi action.
It’s very Snyder in its color schemes and visuals. How many times must we see the slo-mo jump with a spear? And if I wanted that much gratuitous slo-mo in the fight scenes, I’d just watch more Bollywood. I was disappointed that the visuals weren’t more on point. It’s just a big rehash.
Part 2? Whatev. If I’m drunk enough I’ll watch it.
Not D00M recommended says I. Although Greg should watch it since he went to the trouble of starting this thread and I say that with all the earnestly of Lucy holding that football. It is football season, isn’t it? Your move, Charlie Brown…
Or maybe wait for the R-rated Snyder cut. That’ll be better, right?
And if you end up liking it Greg, you must see Sucker Punch.
