      Imho, Besson wanted to do another big movie like the 5th element, but the screenplay wasn't up to the original material. Cara delawhatsherface can't act and whiles tremendously talented, Dabe DeHaan was too baby faced to incarnate Adrian(who's a rough type playboy adventurer in his 40's like Corto Maltese.)
      Also the original material is mostly know in France, Belgium and among old school comics nerd. Tricky to compete with all the Marvel Machine in 2017.
      I think as a limited TV series It would have worked better.
      But You're 💯 right It's a visually striking movie.

This one I liked. For SFX it’s right on top. I was thoroughly entertained. I thought the main characters were right on keeping a calm level in all that chaos. Cara Delevigne is pretty good, I’ve seen other films with her and she is a decent actress! I would suggest when watching a film to go rather by feeling than dissecting it to pieces!

      Because the main characters are completely bland to the point where you don't care about them and the story is completely over the place. For example, Rihanna's character shows up out of nowhere, contributes absolutely nothing to the plot, dies to never be mentioned again. But it took I don't know how long to show her story that contributed nothing at all. The whole movie is like this.
      Now of course we don't all like the same things in movies, some people are just happy to immerse themselves in the environment and can overlook issues others might not. But it certainly was very far from a perfect movie.

      for me was because the story felt so charged with unnecesary stuff, the whole jellyfish and shapeshifting rihanna alien scenes that were so long and added nothing to the plot (why is an ocean and alien whales on a space station? Why did Valerian use Rihanna as a disguise if he just ended up killing everybody while looking human???)
      the 2 lead actors are way to young for the role and their characters are not likeable, like at all. Even that they're good actors, their performance on this one was really underwhelming

    I remember watching the movie in theaters when it came out, and I absolutely loved it, i was 10000% in it all the time. Luc Besson did a great job for this movie imo, even if I've never read the original comics and storys. I also think cara Delevingne was nice in this movie. Thx for the recap it brings me good memories ! 🔥

    Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is a 2017 English-language French 3D space opera film written and directed by Luc Besson. It's better then most people give it cred for, too many people on the marvel band wagon, it is a good film.

      It looks nice and has its qualities, but it's not really a Valerian movie. That disappointed me the most. They advertised it as "from the comic that amazed a generation", but they delivered 5th Element 2: Electric Boogaloo.

    Doesn't get nearly enough credit for the fact the plot is basically caused by such a realistic and often overlooked aspect of sci fi
    In a space battle in a planet's orbit, destroyed ships would be like meteors that would fall onto the planet, potentially causing massive damage, like shown in the movie.
