Rebel Moon: Sofia Boutella Defends Netflix Movie Despite Bad Reviews
“Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire,” receiving a dismal 21% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a Metacritic score of 31/100, faced harsh criticism from reviewers, some even unfavorably comparing it to “Star Wars.” Sofia Boutella, in an interview with Vulture, shared her reaction to the negative feedback, including her experience of reading bad reviews for the project.
Sofia Boutella Stands Firm in Support of Rebel Moon
Despite the backlash, Boutella stands unwavering in her support for the film and the dedicated crew behind it. She empathizes with everyone involved, acknowledging the passion, effort, and dedication they poured into the project. “It really affected me to see something so important to many individuals being torn apart in reviews,” expressed Boutella to Vulture. She remains proud of her involvement in the movie and vows to defend it passionately.
The Redemption of Boutella’s Performance in Rebel Moon
Critics may have a different perspective on Boutella’s portrayal with the release of the R-rated Snyder cut of “Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire.” Described as “hardcore” by her co-star Ed Skrein, this version could potentially reshape opinions on Boutella’s performance. Furthermore, Boutella is set to reprise her role as Kora in “Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver,” slated for release on Netflix in April 2024.
Conclusion
Despite the initial setbacks, it seems Sofia Boutella remains resolute in her defense of “Rebel Moon.” As she gears up for the release of the sequel and the anticipated Snyder cut, Boutella’s dedication to the project and her fellow collaborators shines through, showcasing her unwavering commitment to the franchise.
