Netflix has released the official red band trailer for Zack Snyder’s director’s cut of Rebel Moon. While the trailer has earned some viewers’ approval, it can’t hide the fact that the movie is unnecessary.

The original Rebel Moon movie was released in two parts, with the first arriving in late 2023 and the second in April 2024. Although the films received a lot of hype from Netflix and Snyder and were touted as epic space operas certain to kickstart a new cinematic universe, they both proved to be critical failures. Critics panned the movies for utilizing too many space opera tropes and lacking a strong storyline or character development. They were also criticized for their length, as, combined, the films came in at over 4 hours of runtime. However, the strangest part of the Rebel Moon debacle is that before either movie was released, Snyder confirmed that both would get extended R-rated director’s cuts.
