    Like most, I totally disagree. However, it had such great potential.

    I feel the same about Valerian. The imagery was pure eye candy and then I watched it, so looking forward to a great flick, and what I got was… Valerian.

      The setting and design in Valerian is fantastic. The opening sequence really is among the best in film. Shame about the plot and main characters.

        The plot was bad, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie close to how bad the romantic chemistry was between the main characters. There was negative chemistry, in fact they felt more like brother and sister which just made the whole thing creepy.
