This movie is awkward in the sense that it leaves out so many important things that it leaves you with no choice but to focus solely on the dinosaurs really because once again the human characters are the weak point.
Scarlett Johansson doesn't really put that much acting into this movie, and her character could've easily been played by any other actress. Her character shouldn't even have had the relevance it had.
Speaking of characters, this movie will leave you forgetting their names and even if they had any kind of background, really because they are so one dimensional and so boring. Which is a shame considering there were some really good talents.
The only thing good about this movie are the dinosaurs, and not even the so called biology that is anything but that. So if you're only going to see it because of them, then you'll get your money worth. But if you're expecting some great acting or story you're not going to get them.
Only some good AI CGI and people getting eaten.

Rebel Moon is definitely a good movie. Far from perfect, but nowadays we should get our wins whenever we can.
The story is simple, perhaps a little too simple. And it doesn't dodges the typical cliches seen in this genre of movies. But we can see the potential of this world that Zack Synder has created.
Overall character performances were good and some even very good, unfortunately the performance of the main character Kora (Sophia Boutella) is not amongst them. I had hoped she had grown more as an actress, but it seems clear she will not be growing beyond what she has already shown in the past.
And it's a shame really seeing her character played perhaps by another actress like let's say Emily Blunt, would've really shined and could've perhaps been the creation of quite an important character within the sci-fi genre.
I understand why Sophia Boutella was chosen for this role, her dancing skills really come through in the action scenes. But it's her ability to show deeper levels of emotion that are lacking and for her character that's also a vital part.
Rebel Moon hasn't done anything groundbreaking or revolutionary, but it's still a solid movie. Same as the story might seem too simplistic to some, to others it seems to go over their heads. Some negative critics about it are not only unwarranted but a little petty. As if they were expecting this movie to be what Star Wars or Alien were in their beginning.
When even Star Wars and Alien can't reproduce their winning formula.
Don't go into this movie with too much expectations and will surprise you in a good way. Go into thinking it will be groundbreaking within the genre and you'll obviously be disappointed.
Rebel Moon has potential and it's a good addition to the genre, but it doesn't do anything that can't be expected from a good sci-fi movie. And that's already quite an achievement considering how little in terms of good sci-fi movies we really get.
At least Rebel Moon doesn't promise to shoot for the Moon only to fall in a few meters.
