Given that this film shares the same writer+director with "The Fifth Element", I was hoping for some of the same value. Unfortunately, the target audience seems to be people in their mid-teens. Young teens might find this film even more…

Newer classic Sci-Fi well written & acted + amazing CGI scenes thru-out!

I couldnt finish watching this. After 50 mins (not even halfway through an unjustifiably long movie) I totally lost interest. no character development, and the plot didnt draw me in and make me care enough about what was happening or going…

A bit of cheesy good SciFi. I enjoyed this. There were a few moments, where you were like, "Really? Would that character actually do that? Do that thing right now?" But toss those questions aside and sit back and enjoy the fun.

Mostly Special effects and not much of a story line. Good Luck BP

Well, this is a first: I knew zero about this going in, and ordered a copy of my own before even ½-way through watching it. Awesome! A rollicking thrill-fest, humour, and an incredibly positive and life-affirming race of protagonists;…

A galactic romp based on a French comic book that the director loved as a kid. It took a lot of advanced tech to make it so he had to wait for the tech to become available. Filled with all kinds of interesting characters Bob the Pirate who…

Unless you have interest in Harry Potter in outer space, stay clear of this mess. No cutting edge special effects could redeem this teenage fantasy. Nothing here to see, folks, move along.

Borrowed this movie and watched it twice before bringing it back. Within the week I found it at the store for $5. Directed by Luc Besson who has written and directed The Fifth Element, The Transporter series and Kiss of the Dragon to…

Pretty. Storyline had some promise, but it stopped making sense. And the character of the male lead, left a lot to be desired.

I really wanted to like this movie. The 5th Element is one of my favorite movies and since Luc Besson did such an amazing job with that last space opera I figured this one would be good too. It's just a real shame they did such a poor…

Prepare for a cosmic, galactic rollercoaster with Valerian and the City of One Thousand Planets based on the novel by French author Jean-Claude Mezieres. This sweeping film is steeped in futurist, science fiction and is reminiscent of…

Great science fiction movie!!! The production value is great, the visuals are stunning,and there's even a song and dance by Rhianna !! ( who plays..wait for it... a shapeshifting stripper!) If you want a good sci-fi escape, this is a good…

It took me at least half an hour to get into the film, but it's well worth the wait...a lot of fun. Repeat. Lot of fun.

I think this movie is absolutely top-notch, with visuals rivalling "Avatar" and a plot comparable to "Star Wars". While I wouldn't characterize the writing as excellent, I do think it's well above the average for Hollywood blockbusters,…

Heavy on CGI visual, the film has such a lousy plot that I simply could not have the desire nor patience to finish it. The two actors, whom I don't know, and their acting also do not bring any merit to the film. Definitely one of the…

While the leads are young adults, this movie feels like it's more for teenagers. Perhaps it's the script - the leads' dialogue. My take away, it's an example of how peaceful people can continue to be peaceful people while still defending…

🚀 Almost everything good in this movie was stolen from other, better, SF movies. There are little animals that crap balls of pure energy, straight out of "Futurama." The space ship looks like the Millennium Falcon. And so forth. You've…

This is a rather interesting movie with some peculiar aspects. Picture quality pretty good. Beginning sequence is visually as well as audibly good.

I found this one visually rich with really good detail to it. The moral of the story is one that is worth discussing after watching this all the way through. Plus there are other story details that are also worth discussion.

I love sci-fi and I work in vfx, so there is lots here to potentially enjoy. That said, the dialogue between the two main characters, and between them and other characters, is utterly insufferable - like listening to teenagers loudly…

I think it's a nice little gem. I watched it twice and still liked it.
