Review of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) by Anil E — 14 Oct 2018
I think this film had many elements from the books that made it very worthy (i owned the books since I am a kid). The storyline of the film is one notch better than the graphic novel had. It is more adult.
The film has a pre-story that is original, not from the books. The effects are fanstastic. The bits I have issues with are: a battle near a planet that has nothing to do with the enemies while space is so wide, too many kills without consequence, too english although Rihana was great, going through walls so easily without consequences and the romance between Valerian and Laureline seems at puerile level.
