Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver rescues Zack Snyder's Netflix franchise by standing on its own creative feet and establishing a viable path forward. The bar was admittedly set low for the sequel. The original, A Child of Fire, was a colossal disappointment that felt like a stale retread of Star Wars and Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai. The Scargiver rises off those ashes as an ass-kicking, sci-fi actioner with legitimate character development. Djimon Hounsou, basically mute in the first film, resurrects his Gladiator gravitas to rally a ragtag, motley crew to bloody glory. They deliver a wicked blow to a ruthless enemy in blockbuster style.
