From the moment I saw the very first trailer, I knew that Valerian was something that I HAD to see. As with romantic love, (no matter how much people dont want to admit it) The thing that normally first draws you towards your partner is the physical attraction. Well with this movie, it is DEFINITELY the beautful cinematography that wraps you in. I hope that analogy made sense lol

 

From beginning to end I was in awe at the visuals in this movie. I commend everyone involved with the creating of over 1000 different alien species and spacescapes! Just the thought of having to do that makes my brain ache lol

 

Im defintely a fan of space themed movies but I also feel like if youve seen one of them, you've seen them all. I love when actual iconic and rare space movies come around, which isnt very often. That being said, the year 2017 has provided us not one, but TWO Iconic Space themed movies. Valerian & Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.2.

 

2017 has been a year of exceptional movies and both Guardians of The Galaxy Vol2. & Valerian are in the top percent!

The plot of Valerian is pretty simple. A evil hearted human general commited genocide on a alien race and is now trying hard to cover his tracks.  Even though the concept is simple, I loved the themes of genocide, social  economics, racism, and more that were explored.

 

Even though nobody in the movie was too big named, I believe it still worked. Nobody in the movie really stuck out as phenomenal in their role to me, but nobody was bad at all in their role either. The characters were all interesting enough for me to defintely want more in a sequel.

 

Rihanna suprising had a reall good role! I was like aye you go RiRi!lol

 

I really do hope that this movie does well enough in the world market, because I really would love a sequel! I loved this movie and def would reccomend it to anyone looking for a dope scifi action summer flick!
