This movie is a russian masterpiece. Everything from the soundtrack to the visuals and the monologue to the acting. This movie is just incredible! Highly recommend! 10/10 looking forward to part 2 already

It's a shame this doesn't have higher ratings. This is a fun and very well-done roller-coaster ride.

Suspend all disbelief and recognize: This is a Russian film translated into English voice-over (decent enough job) . It is aimed as a family film (not cerebral fiction), and it is intended to be a FUN ROMP. Demanding more or trying to jam this film into one's personal little mold isn't fair to the genre.

I can be very critical of films that fail to achieve their purpose. This one achieves what it set out to achieve-- a fun film with a moral or two to leave with the young ones: people make mistakes. We can bounce back from those mistakes if we try, if we don't give up. Such a story (although seen before) is worth repeating.

The CGI and action sequences in this are nothing less than stellar. Yes the story can be a little goofy in places, but so what? This movie is a thrill from the first moment to the last. Okay, the plot is more than a little cliche: bad guy tries to take over the universe, heroes jobs to stop him. It's not like it's alone with such quirks. But did it do it well?

The villain and his daughter are excellently portrayed, the hero is properly flawed, the heroine displays loyalty, and it teaches younger ones to accept aliens as part of the family. The Amazonians were likeable and gorgeous, and the varied other races fascinating. On that concept alone it deserves a few extra stars.

In general this is quite a good movie... if a person will allow it to be. So let's put down the critical red pens, sit back, grab the popcorn and dare to ENJOY just for the fun of it. :D.

"Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" , 2017

Visually wild, but a somewhat unfocused plot.

Defo worth a peek, it's always refreshing to watch something that has no identity politics

Just...bizarre.. I really can't come up with anything else. The fact that I'm watching it with English voice over is just adding to the bizarreness of it. It might be OK acting. Can't tell. Seems silly and campy. Looks pretty enough... but bizarre. Kinda juvenile. I'm assuming it's got a big budget. I mean I'm sitting here watching it and its just silly. But there's a sense of wonder to it I can't deny. I'm enjoying it.. I think kids will love it.

If you compare it with DC Marvel or other movies then you're not gonna enjoy it. Just watch and enjoy as a family movie and yes If compared then to Galactic Football.
