Rating: C --
Sexist in a way that it (wrongly) thinks is cheeky-sexy-fun and devoid of any meaningful diversity, the film is seemingly set both in the 28th century and a time before women and people of color could own property.

The Reader (Omaha, NE)
[T]here isn’t a moment in this ludicrous, lushly self-indulgent movie that doesn’t feel like its creator is having the time of his life. -- Grade: B-
A.V. Club
It lacks the definition and a good closure such as its preliminaries promised us. [Full Review in Spanish]

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets has serious structure problems, but is so lovingly made with visuals worth the price of admission.

Rating: 1/5 --
The fact that it winds up as empty and cynical as any made-by-a-committee movie is what murders it.

Rating: 3/5 --
The fantasy worlds and creatures rendered in astoundingly beautiful visual effects are worth the ticket price alone, dazzling in 3D and an immersive, imaginative delight.

We Are Movie Geeks
In short, Besson builds a dazzling alterna-universe -- a bit of Terry Gilliam, a dash of BLADER RUNNER, a smidgen of STAR WARS, and a lot of extra-strength Besson-ian whimsy.
