It's the kind of film you can go all in with its flow and love it, or roll your eyes by how bloated it is and hate it.

Utterly unreal space story from Luc Besson (he of The Fifth Element fame), who seems to have watched James Cameron's Avatar and decided he could make it sillier, more scattered, and less emotionally engaging.

If nothing else, those who lament Hollywood's over-reliance on special effects have a shiny new example of such excess by way of Europe, situated in a faraway galaxy that mostly makes one yearn to escape into the sunlight of planet Earth.

You come away admiring the effort while lamenting the execution, but swinging and missing is always better than not swinging at all.

As a complete motion picture experience, it falls considerably short.

The visuals are amazing, but the witless banter recalls Katherine Heigl and Gerald Butler far more than it stirs memories of Stanley Kubrick and Ridley Scott.

It's a shame this sugar rush has no nutritional value, which becomes increasingly clear the further Valerian proceeds into its slight narrative.

Reportedly the most expensive European production ever mounted, the visually extravagant "Valerian" throws every Euro of its budget up on the screen, but there's little buoyancy to its spirit and not enough thrill in its action-adventure.

A family friendly procedural space opera fantasy adventure... Nicholas Hoult (would) have been a better choice for lead actor... (the film's) not great - questionably good but definitely okay.

Visually dazzling but narratively derivative and emotionally void, Luc Besson's out-of-this-world Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is a Pop Rocks movie.
July 21, 2017
A ripe visual adventure of limitless imagination hamstrung by an undercooked plot propelled by lackluster heroes.

Besson's trying to cram in as much as he possibly can, but the more he overstuffs the movie, the emptier it feels.
