The best sci-fi movies of the year so far
Briefly

When the first part of Zack Snyder's sci-fi epic arrived on Netflix late last year, it was met with criticism over its shallow world and vapid story. However, there was one notable caveat: Snyder himself had already explained that Netflix made him release a shorter, toned-down version of the movie first before he could release his director's cut that better fit his vision.
Rebel Moon: Chalice of Blood, the subtitle for the director's cut of part one, is exactly what Snyder promised the series would be: A tremendous space opera with intricate, complicated lore and tremendous visuals. The story is more or less Seven Samurai in space, which is a perfect prism to use to introduce us to this world.
