The Rebel Moon movies are like watching someone else play a video game.

They're visually distinctive - everything looks cool - and there are plenty of exposition dumps that would work fine as cut scenes. Players could unlock new POV characters as Kora progresses through the story with Gunnar, assembling her magnificent 7 space samurai. The predictable, cliche story wouldn't be nearly as irritating if you could be immersed in it, rather than just watching it.

This is true of a lot of big budget movies and TV shows these days. Maybe because video games have been a much larger market for so long that a lot of genre screenwriters are cutting their teeth writing scripts for games, rather than linear video media?
