Should I wait for the "Snyder cut" (director's cut) of Rebel Moon? (lemmy.world)

Hearing the movie is getting bad reviews. But Snyder says the director's cut will be a completely different movie with a different vision. I admit Zack Snyder's Justice League (director's cut) was much better than the theatrical version and quite different (though I had mostly forgotten the original by then). Not sure if I should just watch this movie now or wait for the director's cut for a better experience. Impression Blend on YouTube said it was ok.

I mean it's a movie. Who knows how you will enjoy it in the first place and who knows how a future version of the movie will turn out compared to the original?

Unless it's an obvious dumpster fire with 0% reviews go and see it for yourself and form your own opinion.

I guess I'm wondering if people think it's worth a watch in its current form

The current version is not a good movie at all. It's a Stat Wars knockoff with a boring story and the visual effects that aren't that great.

I've read that Snyder claims the directors cut is completely different, it'll be R-rated, extra violent, etc etc. I really don't see how making it R-rated is going to fix the problems it has. I'm not much of a fan of Snyder though, so I guess you should take my opinion with a grain of salt.

It seems like I am the only person on lemmy.world to actually enjoy this movie. It's not 'art' but that doesn't mean it's bad.

It's just a setup for the second movie. Personally I enjoyed it but I came in with low expectations. I agree with others CG was weak and too much slow mo but w/e I want sci-fi.

I realise it's a dumb question

No it's perfectly reasonable to ask for opinions, didn't mean to sound harsh, just don't rely too much on other people's opinions.

If I read 10 times that a movie has a specific issue then I will automatically look for this while watching and ruin my own experience.
