Wait... Wait... did it just say "it has traveled 700 million * * * MILES * * * since leaving earth orbit? So it has reached Saturn? and it's taken 400 years to do so? What's providing propulsion, people pissing out the airlock???
The comic book this is based on is a gooddamn string of fetch quest... and Valerian was kidnapped the whole story XD And the actual important stuff happened IN THE BACKGROUND while Laureline was just looking for her partner guided by the Shingouz.
If I could make one change to this movie, it would be to recast Valerian. The film characterizes him as a lady killer and a bad boy, but I don't buy Dane DeHaan as either of these things because he lacks charisma and still looks 15. When I saw the trailer, I seriously thought the main characters were teenagers, so recasting the leads would be a huge help.
Yup this thing has Chris buttery abs,Hemsworth all over it but they chose this acting robot as the male lead.to bad a little more science nerd authenticity and this would have been the hit it should have been
Robert Gross to be fair at least he TRIED in that role, he showed emotion and actually emoted in general in amazing Spider-Man. In valerian his default setting is what can only be described as "stuck in line at the DMV exhausted" seriously the dude is a intergalactic space cop, how could you get this bored with that in the first movie? (My guess is he read the script after he signed on)
Why even have a love story? The first few minutes of the station growing and the meeting of races was amazing, had they continued with that theme with more action scenes it would have been terrific.
Beacouse in comics They are a Couple and also not a muscle are slim Suits are Exactly right on spot from Comic and was Frome 1967 start this Movies album is wrote 1974 so are Serie most other like Står Wars copied from so are some fact Maybe read comic it is exist in USA in 7 volumes in first ate start second are Stunning How awesome It is grown up with this comics when in 1975 when I was 9 cane out in Swedish own alm vilumes today and Still a Great Read in 56 year is are Not age are Easy up to most others and those actually is about something and Adventure are about soumurions bot a Final must Crush enemy final are Final is end stop fight and get came so it is in real World are No nudity no Unessesary Violence are about Adventure in travel in time to Do what send there to do are When not a clue about What is about and Americans Always need violence blood and that's ok if see a nipple world is Falling apart but are no nudity in this serie so are For all to read and they are no teenage Agents they are actually cast in age are in serie so Not Wrong . Never write Star wats look like when are written Kong before even Star Wars Exist exist also Mezieres write this one of 2 are Done Most of Alm things see in Fifth Element like Taxi and cats and so on are in much his Design late in second part start do that movie also was Mobeius was in also but most is Mezieres World Fixth Element is and Blade Runner use same consept in Fmging cars are something is in Valerian Comic before Movies was done so are a lot Star Ears directly copied like Millenia Falco. står ship is from Valerian also Darth Vader Line like when Han Sökt vet melt in a plate are from Valerian also are a lot was decade before in Velerian comic so are Copied done dröm Velerian serie if read it will se it is true Facts photos.app.goo.gl/7ekZi7w1aoq8MJY77
Michael Dust have you ever smelt it? that shit makes you wanta die. When I first got it I opened it in a car... The car smelt of it for a very very very long time.
Thats the point. The original comics was contexted to be written like that. as a kid who read all of the comics as a kid because his dad bought them from officers in korea, I LOVED THIS FILM. Watched it 20 times I fucking loved it.
“The queen picks one with her microwave hand to give to the princess so she can feed it to her pet amadilidragon who can then repligasm out more pearls into the well of galaxy sauce” Best description ever
The thing is that's probably what they were going for in the first place. Keanu Reeves has a reputation as playing the blank "everyman" face just like Tom Cruise. It's said that he does it so the audience can feel like they are the character themselves. Kinda like non-speaking video games protagonists? In this movie it's just boring though. Which is sad because the visuals actually are quite nice.
gmoreau89 oh my gosh YES!!!! I couldn't even enjoy it due to his annoying voice. I even had to look up his age, because he sounded like he was going through puberty.
I'm a little mad you didnt include the dialogue "humans are predictable" "you've obviously never met a woman before" which made me go "oh jesus christ" in the theater
If he included all the horrible lines in the movie, this video would be about as long as the movie itself. Nearly all dialogue that Valerian and Laureline had made me groan audibly.
Its true though. Until you realize the easiest way to handle females is to treat them like children, but don't let them realize you're treating them like children.
"Ahh, so the pearls are harvested, and then the queen picks one with her microwave hand to give to the princess so she can feed it to her pet armadilidragon, who can then repligasm out more pearls into the well of galaxy sauce that then sends pulsing luminescence through the sand arteries. Glad we got that all figured out." This killed me.
"You spent the last 5 minutes setting up this relationship that I am now 100% rooting against" Best 😂 this was a really horrible forced relationship attempt that has no value in it at all
all their common references still need to be sinned, like the Monty Python movies. No movie is without sin, but what about the movies that intentionally sinned for satirical value?
After rewatching the scene I am now convinced that Bubble was killed by friendly fire because her two allies were holding their swords in the air about to attack the hordes of enemies and bubble morphed her body around both of them and in the process got stabbed by the two swords. Makes sense to me
It was a real dick move to just kill off her character and not be like "gotcha!"..."Did you believe me?", or SOMETHING like that. Would've lined up with her character PERFECTLY it's a gawddamed SHAME i tell you smh.
6:23 Okay, this bit bothered me when I saw Valerian in theaters, and it still bothers me now. Apologies in advance for my rant. Alpha's destination is supposed to be the "Magellan Current," which doesn't exist. It might refer to the Large Magellanic Cloud, a relatively close galaxy roughly 160,000 light-years or 930 _quadrillion_ miles away. Given it's supposed to be heading into the "great unknown," this would seem a good an estimate as any. *However,* they just told us that over the course of 400 years, Alpha has traveled a mere 700 _million_ miles, which even in the best-case scenario puts it closer to the Sun than the planet _Saturn._ First, compare this to the Voyager 2 Probe. Since its launch in 1977, it's traveled about 11 _billion_ miles with 1970's science. That's roughly 15 times the distance in about 1/10th the time. Second, that's nowhere near what one would consider the "great unknown" by today's standards, and this setting *requires* FTL travel and other advanced spacefuture science just to exist. _Third,_ at the rate Alpha is going, it will take over _530 billion years_ for it to reach the Large Magellanic Cloud, not accounting for things like galactic shift or the expansion of the universe, both of which are pretty effing important given the current age of the universe is only about 13.7 billion years. *And the movie does not bother to address this at all.*
700 million miles in 400 years? That's 1,75 million miles per year, 4794.5 miles per day, 199.7 miles per hour, which equals 321.4 km per hour, which is 89.28 meters per second... Yeah... Pretty slow...
Not just this movie but many that include scientific stuff. It's distracting and borderline disrespectful at this point. I wished they just asked a scientist cause... it kind of kills the buzz when your watching a movie and they say stupid, oh so stupid, stuff like that. I don't care they make up galaxy names, propulsion names, etc, etc but how hard can it be to get this right if the public can do it?
"Your not thinking 4th dimensional." (Hahahahahaha!) tetrahedron to thoughs curious is a Pyramid with three corned base and a point (corner) at top with all sides equal. The "universe" in 3D reality has an infant directions and being that Space and Time equal, think 4th Dimensional.
man0z Western countries, eastern countries... practically every modern society and almost every religion has done what we consider to be unspeakable in the name of progress, and usually as a result of recognising or interacting with other nations. Why the Pearls in the movie are so peaceful is because (as far as we know) they never interacted with any other life forms similar or seen as a threat to themselves and did not have a need for development on their planet. I believe you are referring to human nature in general: not just the western world. And Nazi Germany's "true paradise" was at the expense of millions of lives or human rights, the same is with most settlements or "Utopias" in history and present day.
HAHAHAHA. The City Of A Thousand Planets has only traveled 700,000,000 Miles = 0.000119 Light years in 400 Years. HAHAHAHAHA That means only 1,750,000 Miles per Year Which means 4794.5 Miles per day Which means it travels only 199.7mph. Voyager 2 is currently traveling 35,000 miles per hour HAHAHAHAHAHA...... They haven't even left the Solar System yet.
+Rachel Moody You've got to reach more than 8km/s just to escape the terrestrial gravity... The more far you are from the Sun, the slower you must be to stay on orbit, and Pluto still have an orbital velocity of 4.74 km/s... Just for saying that travelling at 200mph is a really dumb point in the whole scenario.
not really. It was meant to be a space station, got too heavy to remain in orbit, and they just kinda got it our of orbit (somehow) and let it float wherever.
Normally I don't watch CinemaSins before watching a movie, but literally cared so little about the characters and this movie that I'll call this my cheat day.
"If Princess Liho has been inside Valerian and "guiding" him this entire time, could she not guided him away from being such a douche at the beginning of the movie?" xD
When I first watched this movie, I was convinced the actress alien was actually feigning her death and would, at some later point, come back and ask if she was believable. If only it was even that slightly smart.
Yo man you speak the truth if I've ever heard it. Why in the HELL didn't they let her trick them and be like... "So how was my acting?" After the credits ended and there was no extra scene where she came back to life i was VERY pissed off. It would've been SO good for her character if she did and i don't even give a damn if it happened in the comics or NOT! They truly wasted their own movie's potential how are they smart AND stupid at the same time!?!?
Hollywood has brainwashed you into thinking heroes need to look like the Rock. I thought it was a nice change to see a human sized man, and not a steroid-infused monster playing the hero....
Even Futurama would make more sense... like ripping a space station in half to blast off with the Planet Express Ship would at least be a visual joke (probably followed by some one liner) while this movie just ignores that the Pearls just killed Alfa station.
No sin for 700 million miles? Thats only from the sun to Saturn so.... they wouldnt have traveled very far at all in 400 years. THEY WOULDNT EVEN HAVE LEFT THE SOLAR SYSTEM!
The only way I enjoyed this film was pretending Valerian and Laureline were secretly Blade-Runner style robots, who thought they were human. Thus the bad acting and strange actions, is just two robots trying to be human based off what they think humans behave.
The fact that the original comic is called Valerian and Laureline but then they kicked Laureline out of the title is great foreshadowing for her (lack of) character traits in the movie
Technically, the jellyfish that we are most familiar with don't have a distinguished mouth or butt hole. As a member of the Cnidaria phylum, they have only one orifice. Also, "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Side Quests" is just brilliant.
Casting killed this great film. Dane DeHaan you should never accept this role! I hope they do remake someday with some more suitable actor for this role. After killing this movie time to retire Dane or do something more useful.
The two fucking leads look and behave nothing like the characters from the comics. They're just Pharma Bro and Can't Act Eyebrows. They should be Space James Bond and Emma Peel.
Lee Patterson, Cara - and, believe me, I love her - is a terrible actress. I can't even think of a single moment where she was convincing. She was entertaining. And, honestly, despite her bad acting, she's my favourite part of this movie. Let's be real, man. Dane? Yes. He has acted well in other films. Cara? Pan, Paper Towns, Suicide Squad, and Valerian. No. I'm sorry, but no. She has potential, but she hasn't recognized said potential in a single film.
Even the two best actors in the world couldn't save this movie with the same script given to them though. The script makes them say and do stupid ass things, and when the actors may know it, then it even gets worse, because they know it.
The urge to walk out of the movie theatre during this movies was killing me. Only positive thing i can say is beautiful worlds. Plot was shit, acting was shit, characters were not likeable or relatable whatsoever. It had alot of potential and it just crashed and burned.
I'm surprised that valerian could keep such a job for that long given how stupid and un-professional he is. Fuck! As Jeremy said, it's pretty much a retarded move to propose to your girlfriend/co-worker DURING A FUCKING MISSION!!! Same goes for the girl (I forgotten the name but who cares), she's hardly qualified to hold such a position.
When I was at the movies all I did was eat hamburgers and talk on the phone with my friend in the bathroom. It was hard to even sit through the first 3 minutes of this movie.
PeterAckarey I have no idea who that is. So, I looked her up. Still have no clue. But I know one thing: that chick from the Valerian movie is waaaaaay hotter.
You missed a great one. At 6:22 or so their computer tells them that since leaving orbit, Alpha has traveled seven hundred million miles. That would place it still in the solar system, between Jupiter and Saturn.
Joseph Piatt yeah I thought the same, 700 000 000 miles is nothing in space. Hell a single light year is 9.5 times ten to the power of TWELVE kilometers. Space is simply uncomprenhensibly big.
"Movie has time for this?" Can describe 75% of the film. I got extremely frustrated when I saw this movie in the theater at the part where the gal gets fished and then the movie has a 30 minute diversion that goes nowhere and accomplishes nothing.
Valerian's little respirator/spider-bot thing that cuts him out of the Mul-goo cocoon should've been red with the Swiss cross on it, like the future's version of a Swiss Army knife! The little spider-bot could've also been red with the cross on it, and like flicked thru a couple different tools before selecting the thin blade best suited to cutting thru the goo... That would've been cool; a Swiss Army knife that functions as a pocket knife, multi-tool, respirator, has an autonomous spider-bot in it, plus it's a flashlight/cellphone/communicator/butane lighter/sub-etha SensoMatic... I'd buy one!
It's true that this is not a great movie, but I would really like to explore more of this world. It's very interesting to me. Maybe they should've adapt it in game form instead.
They could just do a sequel in the fifth element universe with different people and a different story with a sprinkling of references and it would still be better than this
He sure makes some unappatizing moves on his sister, then . . . 0.o (I know, you said "look like"). Perhaps it's like Leia and Luke? Well, in the album series, they are definitely NOT brother and sister, but this uhholy pile of crap of a movie has deviated so blatantly astray from the albums, that I think of it as a seperate franchise. And then, they COULD be brother and sister. And have Harvey Swinestein as the uncle they shouldn't have been sent to that summer holiday twenty years ago . . .
I actually liked many things about this movie. I just can't fucking stomach looking at that dude's busted face for more than 5 seconds. Luc Besson was out his damn mind thinking he'd be a good lead for this movie.
Funny thing. In the comic, the two main characters WEREN’T involved. Ever. Funny how movies think a “hot” man (suggestible here) and a hot woman have to be together no matter what.
I've got to ask: were they TRYING to make the two leads look like they're both about sixteen years old? Because they do, and it's creepy as hell, even before the "romantic" "banter" gets thrown into the mix.
I think they were trying to market this movie as a teenage power fantasy story(also were trying to do too much to sell as much as possible) just by how cynical and lazy the movie feels.
All three consoles can't do it, well, they can, they just choose not to. at least Xbox let a few through, even if that just proves the point. It's really pointless too, I mean why would they just choose to not make money selling their current console with access to old games? It just means people have to after market them, which means that they are just losing money for nothing.
13:56 its more like..hey we need to get valerian in. So how? Oh, lets have him hook up with shapeshifting alien. Why would the alien help him? Let him promise her some reward. Later on, so now they have escaped...what to do with shape shifting alien? No idea...sooo...lets have her dead. Problem solved.
I actually really loved the dress up scene. That alien looked so happy and I watched it like 3 times. It was my favorite part of just about any movie in 2017.
Cinema Sins sins counter: 1. This movie was based off a comic from 1953 (if my memory serves). From my understanding (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) george lucas got a few ideas from the comic; Watto was based off the 3 information aliens. In one comic, Valerian gets frozen in some sort of metal; Han got frozen in carbonite crystal. The ship Valerian flies has a similar design to that of the Millenium Falcon.
Yes but he's talking about the iconic quote that Han Solo makes and since we're talking film, technically Valerian (the movie) is being Star Warsy. Tho you are right that the comics came out before the Star Wars movies.
I just watched this movie. I loved it. 90% of it was so much fun. But i really found myself struggling with Dane as the male lead. As well as his voice. He sounded like he was doing an impression of Keanu Reeves. It really took me out of it. Cara felt fine to me. Their romance was blah, but i feel it could have been a lot better with a more convincing male lead. What a bummer it made so little money. I would absolutely go see the next installment in theaters.
Didn't even include 4 of the worst sins: (1) the Pearls are somehow able to survive a planet being blown up by hiding in a spacecraft wreck. (2) the Pearls elevate themselves from a hunter gatherer society to a space-faring society within 30 years, just by reading stuff on an alien ship whose language they don't speak, using equipment that they would have literally no comprehension of. (3) Valerian can't go and confront the "Boulan Bathors" directly because it would cause a "diplomatic incident" - so.... kidnapping Laureline isn't *already* a diplomatic incident?? He then spends ages on a side mission to gain a disguise, which he promptly discards shortly before killing everyone... uh (4) when she's captured Laureline is wearing an exoskeleton that was shown five minutes earlier as being capable of running through the space station from one side to the other, through the walls, but she doesn't use it to escape from a wooden cage... (she also conveniently forgets that she's a badass fighter...)
🤔 I hated that, but then I started to wonder.. Maybe they evolved over millions of years into a race of extremely intelligent Gods.. So technologically advanced that war was inevitable.. But at one point in their entire existence, they realized that the key to true physical, mental and spiritual peace, was the simple life.. But then again, it's a whole lotto bullcrap to spring it on us so suddenly.. Lazy writing..
You're better at CinemaSins than CinemaSons is and that's a sin! Lol I completely agree. Also did no one else spot the Jessica Rabbit Easter Egg? Why? It's not like Luc Basson w Had anything to do with that movie. Maybe he's just a fan?
Also by learning human military and alien technology the pearls got weapons and ships 10 times better than everybody else also the war that destroyed is not explained
Going to the movies with this guy from CinemaSins would be hilarious... each time something's up he would be mumbling stuff like "What da.... cmonnn... no way... ahahah bullshit..." lol
This movie was soooo close to being a great movie. Tiny little unnecessary plot points and silly avoidable mistakes. Just not having Valerian and Laureline not have a romantic "will they/won't they" relationship but instead something like Widow and Cap in Winter Soldier would have been much better
DjMaffi Ummm... Not to mention all the main actors being terrible at their roles... Or bubble dying for a dumb ass reason, after making her a more likeable character than any of the main characters in the first 5 mins she was on... Or the fact the two main characters played out this dumb ass douche bag and basic bitch fragile relationship? No? None of that? Just tiny little mistakes? Think you need to watch the video again. * *ding* *
This film should be taught in film school on how not to build a world ...and a good reminder a thing called "emotion" is a *good* thing to have in a film.
@@MauDaFaca I thought the setting was a nice mixture of star trek, star wars and halo and was more creative than some of the recent star wars' settings. I just thought the storyline lacked suspense and that the casting of the two leads was terrible.
Honestly remove the story and just give me an hour of random worldbuilding through CGI effects,no dialogue/narration,just us going through this place. some Sweet Eye candy
I was about to say that as well. I think they just chose the wrong music for it. Don't get me wrong, I adore the song, but the whole "let's put old music over futuristic imagery" thing kinda turned cliche after the Guardians of the Galaxy. An original song could have been really nice.
That's exactly what i thought actually. The only thing that made his character interesting was that he was carrying the spirit of a female inside him, but he didn't even really get a chance to "play" that onscreen. Lol. More Keanu than Keanu. . .in a bad way, for sure.
ha I was thinking the same thing when I watched the movie, 2 things I didn't like about his character is 1 he's supposed to be a MAJ in the military but it looks like he never worked out a day in his life and 2 why does he sound like Keanu Reeves
3:48 Sure, that Y-barrel gun looks cool, but unless the angle of divergence is tuneable, it can only target two enemies who are standing along two fixed axes, so it would probably be a useless feature at least 95% of the time.
I have to assume it's auto-targeting. Otherwise there's literally no reason it should exist unless the projectiles, like, loop back in and converge on a target from longer range or something.
I mean maybe if he's just sitting at that desk constantly, and he keeps the placement of the chairs across from him super precise? I don't know why I'm bothering to come up with headcanons for Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.
As much as I hate this movie, I love the french comics it's adapted from, A comics that inspired a lot of modern sci-fi, so giving the movie sins for "copying" star wars or star trek is a bit stupid
Basic sci fi tropes are pretty consistent throughout the genre. It's hard to make valid accusations of "copying." You might as well say every western with a saloon and cowboy shootout "copied" another. That said, the *comic* might have come before star wars/trek. But the MOVIE came AFTER those two immensely popular and influential IPs. So style, dialogue, visuals for the movie definitely could have been influenced by those, not the comic.
King OatMeal yeah.. a prewritten script that has everything already planned out.. Someone wrote down that Captain America beat Tony Stark... But if it were an actual fight between these two fictional characters, it is most likely that Iron Man would win the battle. He's an uber genius inside of a super mech suit that can analyze fighting patterns. But truth is we'll never know because they do not exist...
Casting a borderline hydrocephalic emo as a ladykiller action hero. Done.
5 ปีที่แล้ว +9
This is what happens when you walk into a casting agency and say "Give me someone who looks as intelligent as if he got his brains by getting punched in the face.... with a truck"
PattPlays hahahahahaha you do realize that’s why he wanted him to redo them so we can get more sins and a longer video. But personally I’m against the idea, because those are the videos where he didn’t sin useless shit now he sins everything I understand it’s haha funny but I mean most of the sins are useless and he is just clinging on for more sins
Pennylane is Almost famous That would only be feasible in a month where he has nothing else to review. We all clicked on this trash movie, but an edited reupload? Half decade old movie? There goes a fourth of the views. Movie ppl already saw him review? There goes another 4th. Movie not trending in google and thus no new viewers get pulled in? Another cut. Ppl who want to see a reupload do not outnumber these losses.
yeah unless he's got literal body parts in his fridge I'm calling bullshit on that one. That's the only definition of ladykiller that would be somewhat believable for this guy
Here's an interesting tidbit: if the station has traveled 700 million miles since leaving terrestrial orbit... ... it's barely past the orbit of Jupiter. It still has a long way to go before passing Saturn. A typical modern probe like the Voyagers is moving faster than that station.
Every review I've heard is either "It's so pretty you won't care that the story and characters are fail-tastic" or "It's so pretty they *hoped* you won't care that the story and characters are fail-tastic, but they were wrong!" So basically, someone saw how pretty Avatar was, thought you didn't need anything else but to similarly go all-out on the visuals, and you will enjoy this as much or as little as you can forgive that.

Wait... Wait... did it just say "it has traveled 700 million * * * MILES * * * since leaving earth orbit? So it has reached Saturn? and it's taken 400 years to do so? What's providing propulsion, people pissing out the airlock???
I went looking for comments about how, in space, traveling 700 miles is essentially walking from side of a small room to the other. Thank you.
Ok this made me literally LOL...god "pissing out the airlock", POA propulsion system XD
That was really annoying when I heard it in the theater. I hate it when stories just fart out a number.
Hell, it hasn't even reached Saturn. But it's almost there!
Best comment ever. Take all my internets, sir !
"Valerian and the Movie of a Thousand Side Quests." SAVAGE
The comic book this is based on is a gooddamn string of fetch quest... and Valerian was kidnapped the whole story XD And the actual important stuff happened IN THE BACKGROUND while Laureline was just looking for her partner guided by the Shingouz.
finally someone who read the comic!
valerian is great movie
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee gtfo normie!
Landon Wyndham yes please
If I could make one change to this movie, it would be to recast Valerian. The film characterizes him as a lady killer and a bad boy, but I don't buy Dane DeHaan as either of these things because he lacks charisma and still looks 15. When I saw the trailer, I seriously thought the main characters were teenagers, so recasting the leads would be a huge help.
He sucked as the Green Goblin also in ASM2!
Yeah. 2 super-agents that are 15. Both werent believable.
Apparently they where both around 31 when this film came out, but I also thought they where supposed to be teenagers.
Yup this thing has Chris buttery abs,Hemsworth all over it but they chose this acting robot as the male lead.to bad a little more science nerd authenticity and this would have been the hit it should have been
Robert Gross to be fair at least he TRIED in that role, he showed emotion and actually emoted in general in amazing Spider-Man. In valerian his default setting is what can only be described as "stuck in line at the DMV exhausted" seriously the dude is a intergalactic space cop, how could you get this bored with that in the first movie? (My guess is he read the script after he signed on)
Why even have a love story? The first few minutes of the station growing and the meeting of races was amazing, had they continued with that theme with more action scenes it would have been terrific.
tribute to original material
Beacouse in comics They are a Couple and also not a muscle are slim Suits are Exactly right on spot from Comic and was Frome 1967 start this Movies album is wrote 1974 so are Serie most other like Står Wars copied from so are some fact Maybe read comic it is exist in USA in 7 volumes in first ate start second are Stunning How awesome It is grown up with this comics when in 1975 when I was 9 cane out in Swedish own alm vilumes today and Still a Great Read in 56 year is are Not age are Easy up to most others and those actually is about something and Adventure are about soumurions bot a Final must Crush enemy final are Final is end stop fight and get came so it is in real World are No nudity no Unessesary Violence are about Adventure in travel in time to Do what send there to do are When not a clue about What is about and Americans Always need violence blood and that's ok if see a nipple world is Falling apart but are no nudity in this serie so are For all to read and they are no teenage Agents they are actually cast in age are in serie so Not Wrong .

?????????????????????
HOLY SHT USE SOME PUNCTUATION.
I had a stroke trying read this and gave up a line in...
Valerian came out when I started to take the medicine Valerian, I was confused why they made a movie about sleeping pills.
Thegameres I really wanted to ask if you were stupid but then figured it's probably a joke.
X Drake nah boi it was a joke.
Michael Dust have you ever smelt it? that shit makes you wanta die. When I first got it I opened it in a car... The car smelt of it for a very very very long time.
Thegameres this movie has the same effect tbh
Especially Dane DeHaan.
The two main leads never seem to drop out of monotone.
Thats the point.
The original comics was contexted to be written like that. as a kid who read all of the comics as a kid because his dad bought them from officers in korea, I LOVED THIS FILM. Watched it 20 times I fucking loved it.
I don''t hate it, but the wooden leads are really the worst part of it.
because the characters where written in the 40's
with one sided personalities.
you haven't even seen the movie have you
Really?
@CAROLUS REX The movie sucks almost as hard as your 2 gay dads.
Sin: for the valerian having the same raspy monotone voice the whole movie
He is calm, it's refreshing comparing to all other american action hero
this film was so horribly miscast. and I generally like Dane DeHaan
NotAllCatsAreNice he sounded like the star of a fanmade TH-cam "movie"
He's basically Cr1tical
That's just Dane Dehaan - he's great in movies with dark and haunted characters but when it comes to fun charismatic sci fi leads he's a poor choice.

“The queen picks one with her microwave hand to give to the princess so she can feed it to her pet amadilidragon who can then repligasm out more pearls into the well of galaxy sauce”
Best description ever
This movie looked BEAUTIFUL. But it's a shame there wasn't much else.
Bobby Shewan it was pretty but that was literally all it had going for it
Lee Patterson I mean, you could do worse. There was the Emoji Movie
Bobby Shewan that’s true but at least this had some kind of appeal
As someone else once put it "It's the most beautiful dumpster fire in existence"
Lachlan Robertson lol who said that
Valerian sounds like he's playing Keanu reeves playing valerian
The thing is that's probably what they were going for in the first place. Keanu Reeves has a reputation as playing the blank "everyman" face just like Tom Cruise. It's said that he does it so the audience can feel like they are the character themselves. Kinda like non-speaking video games protagonists?
In this movie it's just boring though. Which is sad because the visuals actually are quite nice.
gmoreau89 What a description! 😂
gmoreau89 oh my gosh YES!!!! I couldn't even enjoy it due to his annoying voice. I even had to look up his age, because he sounded like he was going through puberty.
gmoreau89 haha yep
gmoreau89 he sounds like he got sick and just never recovered
I'm a little mad you didnt include the dialogue "humans are predictable" "you've obviously never met a woman before" which made me go "oh jesus christ" in the theater
@Rodzilla youre an incel as well
If he included all the horrible lines in the movie, this video would be about as long as the movie itself. Nearly all dialogue that Valerian and Laureline had made me groan audibly.
This dialogue is the kind of thing I'd type up in highschool, and that's BAD. Blues brothers 2000 bad.
bruh
Its true though. Until you realize the easiest way to handle females is to treat them like children, but don't let them realize you're treating them like children.
"Ahh, so the pearls are harvested, and then the queen picks one with her microwave hand to give to the princess so she can feed it to her pet armadilidragon, who can then repligasm out more pearls into the well of galaxy sauce that then sends pulsing luminescence through the sand arteries. Glad we got that all figured out."
This killed me.
Dandy Prime I think I just seen the same video you did. 😨
Dandy Prime I can't believe you took the time to type that all out
RIP
"You spent the last 5 minutes setting up this relationship that I am now 100% rooting against" Best 😂 this was a really horrible forced relationship attempt that has no value in it at all
I felt like there was more chemistry with Bubbles and she was on for so little time.
There was more chemistry between him and his put on voice
Like today's relationships...
@Dr. killpatient yeah, see, there's this thing called "acting"...
tribute to original material
"Haven't these guys seen War of the Worlds?"
By the way, Jeremy, we are still waiting for you to sin that movie. :-)
Coraline Parmentier - Pianist for Peace how did you know his name is Jeremy
When the same guy has both of the top 2 comments
Except I'm not a guy
all their common references still need to be sinned, like the Monty Python movies. No movie is without sin, but what about the movies that intentionally sinned for satirical value?
Read the description: "Slightly less recent Sci-Fi sins"
You don't think...?
After rewatching the scene I am now convinced that Bubble was killed by friendly fire because her two allies were holding their swords in the air about to attack the hordes of enemies and bubble morphed her body around both of them and in the process got stabbed by the two swords. Makes sense to me
It was a real dick move to just kill off her character and not be like "gotcha!"..."Did you believe me?", or SOMETHING like that. Would've lined up with her character PERFECTLY it's a gawddamed SHAME i tell you smh.
Paul Blorp: Spacemall cop
The best spinoff ever
I can't belive this movie didn't get a sin everytime the girl said valerian. Valerian! Valerian!
Finally someone 🙄
You are not calling your lover/colleague/friend/neighbour by their name?
Roll credits.
This is when I turned it off. Even as I was hitting the button she was still saying it.
6:23 Okay, this bit bothered me when I saw Valerian in theaters, and it still bothers me now. Apologies in advance for my rant.
Alpha's destination is supposed to be the "Magellan Current," which doesn't exist. It might refer to the Large Magellanic Cloud, a relatively close galaxy roughly 160,000 light-years or 930 _quadrillion_ miles away. Given it's supposed to be heading into the "great unknown," this would seem a good an estimate as any.
*However,* they just told us that over the course of 400 years, Alpha has traveled a mere 700 _million_ miles, which even in the best-case scenario puts it closer to the Sun than the planet _Saturn._
First, compare this to the Voyager 2 Probe. Since its launch in 1977, it's traveled about 11 _billion_ miles with 1970's science. That's roughly 15 times the distance in about 1/10th the time.
Second, that's nowhere near what one would consider the "great unknown" by today's standards, and this setting *requires* FTL travel and other advanced spacefuture science just to exist.
_Third,_ at the rate Alpha is going, it will take over _530 billion years_ for it to reach the Large Magellanic Cloud, not accounting for things like galactic shift or the expansion of the universe, both of which are pretty effing important given the current age of the universe is only about 13.7 billion years.
*And the movie does not bother to address this at all.*
David R Tge kind of criticism I love to see
700 million miles in 400 years? That's 1,75 million miles per year, 4794.5 miles per day, 199.7 miles per hour, which equals 321.4 km per hour, which is 89.28 meters per second... Yeah... Pretty slow...
Not just this movie but many that include scientific stuff. It's distracting and borderline disrespectful at this point. I wished they just asked a scientist cause... it kind of kills the buzz when your watching a movie and they say stupid, oh so stupid, stuff like that. I don't care they make up galaxy names, propulsion names, etc, etc but how hard can it be to get this right if the public can do it?
david r would be excellent at cinema sins [-1 sin]
Thank you.
700 000 000 miles from Earth's orbit is roughly Saturn's orbit, sooooo....... Still well in our solar system, not "into the unknown".
"...from the four corners of the universe."
Just when you thought flat-Earthers were bad, we find out about cube-Universers.
A 3D shape with 4 corners is, in fact, a tetrahedron not a cube.
Cubes have 8 corners though.
square?
Well...yeah. Sure you look at any map of anything and there are only four corners...lol
"Your not thinking 4th dimensional." (Hahahahahaha!) tetrahedron to thoughs curious is a Pyramid with three corned base and a point (corner) at top with all sides equal. The "universe" in 3D reality has an infant directions and being that Space and Time equal, think 4th Dimensional.
One extra sin for Valerian slaughtering Aliens in a heartbeat, a few minutes after stating that he didn’t want to risk a diplomatic incident !
He kills their king. Then reveals himself. NBD
man0z
Western countries, eastern countries... practically every modern society and almost every religion has done what we consider to be unspeakable in the name of progress, and usually as a result of recognising or interacting with other nations. Why the Pearls in the movie are so peaceful is because (as far as we know) they never interacted with any other life forms similar or seen as a threat to themselves and did not have a need for development on their planet. I believe you are referring to human nature in general: not just the western world. And Nazi Germany's "true paradise" was at the expense of millions of lives or human rights, the same is with most settlements or "Utopias" in history and present day.
easily the most random pivot in comments ive seeen in years on youtube
They tried to kill and eat someone, pretty sure they caused the incident.
700 million miles from Earth means that the space station is not even to Saturn yet...
And therefore there's no way that it could have accumulated a thousand planetary sized masses on which to build the "City of a thousand planets"
@Michael Enquist again, its barely to Saturn and has 1k races? I still call.bullshit.
K heard in the video over 7,000 something species from.1I planets
_AND_ it's 400 years later, you'd think space tech would be way more advanced
Someone read the imdb goofs
It's really a shame such rich visuals were wasted on such a bland narrative.
Agreed. Avatar at least had an engaging enough, if basic, story to let the gorgeous world-building carry it.
the comics were so much better
The love story felt extremely tacked on. I think the actors were miscast for their roles and there was absolutely zero chemistry between them.
Cara allegedly got a role in exchange for a 3some with Weinstein. Look it up
Torsten Seidel lmao, those characters have zero chemistry with the movie
@@nemesisxxprime no she didn't wtf
@@nemesisxxprime So she is a victim then? 😄
They had good chemistry as cop partners, but I did not buy them as lovers
HAHAHAHA. The City Of A Thousand Planets has only traveled 700,000,000 Miles = 0.000119 Light years in 400 Years. HAHAHAHAHA That means only 1,750,000 Miles per Year Which means 4794.5 Miles per day Which means it travels only 199.7mph. Voyager 2 is currently traveling 35,000 miles per hour HAHAHAHAHAHA...... They haven't even left the Solar System yet.
Granted, it was not designed for fast travel. It's a space station, not a spaceship.
+Rachel Moody
You've got to reach more than 8km/s just to escape the terrestrial gravity...
The more far you are from the Sun, the slower you must be to stay on orbit, and Pluto still have an orbital velocity of 4.74 km/s...
Just for saying that travelling at 200mph is a really dumb point in the whole scenario.
+Takuan Soho I only meant that we shouldn't be expecting top speeds out of it.
Was it meant to leave the solar system?
not really. It was meant to be a space station, got too heavy to remain in orbit, and they just kinda got it our of orbit (somehow) and let it float wherever.
Normally I don't watch CinemaSins before watching a movie, but literally cared so little about the characters and this movie that I'll call this my cheat day.
"Igon One : A valerian story"
I died here XD
Coraline Parmentier - Pianist for Peace hmmmm, how did you die there and still managed to make this comment?
I died On ALL OF HIS OPINIONS, And very accurate explanations on how bad this was, and How there were things that didn't make sense at all
2:22 This must be one of the worst casting decisions of all times, as these two "lovers" for some reason seem and act more like brother and sister.
"If Princess Liho has been inside Valerian and "guiding" him this entire time, could she not guided him away from being such a douche at the beginning of the movie?" xD
When I first watched this movie, I was convinced the actress alien was actually feigning her death and would, at some later point, come back and ask if she was believable. If only it was even that slightly smart.
Yo man you speak the truth if I've ever heard it. Why in the HELL didn't they let her trick them and be like... "So how was my acting?" After the credits ended and there was no extra scene where she came back to life i was VERY pissed off. It would've been SO good for her character if she did and i don't even give a damn if it happened in the comics or NOT! They truly wasted their own movie's potential how are they smart AND stupid at the same time!?!?
Why does the actor playing Valerian look like he's incredibly ill?
LOOK AT HIS EYES, THEY'RE SO SUNKEN IN!
You don't look ill without being ill. Hopefully he can turn it around.
Probably drugs or some leftover craziness from being the goblin
Probably had to get plastered to get through this role.
Hollywood has brainwashed you into thinking heroes need to look like the Rock. I thought it was a nice change to see a human sized man, and not a steroid-infused monster playing the hero....
This movie was like a weird ass episode of Futurama made into a live action movie.
Even Futurama would make more sense... like ripping a space station in half to blast off with the Planet Express Ship would at least be a visual joke (probably followed by some one liner) while this movie just ignores that the Pearls just killed Alfa station.
I’d rather watch Kif give birth again.
No sin for 700 million miles? Thats only from the sun to Saturn so.... they wouldnt have traveled very far at all in 400 years.
THEY WOULDNT EVEN HAVE LEFT THE SOLAR SYSTEM!
Apparently no one in the movie took simple astronomy lessons. I agree with you.
pretty much
PotBoyz Better a nerd then a moron.
Not an astronomer so forgive me for asking a dumb question, but if that is the distance from Saturn to the sun what is it from the Earth?
madhippy3 From what, Earth to Saturn or from Earth to the sun?
The only way I enjoyed this film was pretending Valerian and Laureline were secretly Blade-Runner style robots, who thought they were human. Thus the bad acting and strange actions, is just two robots trying to be human based off what they think humans behave.
Core Brute Agreed, that WOULD have made the film remotely bearable!
The fact that the original comic is called Valerian and Laureline but then they kicked Laureline out of the title is great foreshadowing for her (lack of) character traits in the movie
That and they took the whole time travel and searching for planet earth stuff out just killed this movie for me
great point! I was watching this movie hoping for something real about her character or actions...
i had a easier job believing that the main characters were actually talking to the CGI aliens, than each other.
Technically, the jellyfish that we are most familiar with don't have a distinguished mouth or butt hole. As a member of the Cnidaria phylum, they have only one orifice.
Also, "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Side Quests" is just brilliant.
Did anyone notice how many facial expressions Dane has in this movie ?
I counted 3.....
Its like if Kristen Stewart was a guy 😂
@CogitoErgoCogitoSum Valerian. The main character. He makes almost no expressions in this movie
@Mike Forti Same. Even Twilight was a better love story than that shit
Casting killed this great film. Dane DeHaan you should never accept this role! I hope they do remake someday with some more suitable actor for this role. After killing this movie time to retire Dane or do something more useful.
It's pretty common in movies. How many faces does Steven Seagull have? What about Liam Neeson?
'The Harvey Wienstein school of workplace behaviour' lmaooooo
To all those who think it’s close to Star Wars, this movie was based on French comic that came out in 1967 (10 years before first Star Wars movies)
Bullshit.
@@23GreyFox Look it up
Never found a Star Destroyer in that french stuff. Just because of 2 or 3 simular things it's not based on.
23GreyFox George Lucas confirmed it fuck sake man look it up
so what the movie is still shit
The two fucking leads look and behave nothing like the characters from the comics. They're just Pharma Bro and Can't Act Eyebrows. They should be Space James Bond and Emma Peel.
They’re both pretty good actors in other movies but their acting in this movie was terrible
Lee Patterson, Cara - and, believe me, I love her - is a terrible actress. I can't even think of a single moment where she was convincing. She was entertaining. And, honestly, despite her bad acting, she's my favourite part of this movie. Let's be real, man. Dane? Yes. He has acted well in other films. Cara? Pan, Paper Towns, Suicide Squad, and Valerian. No. I'm sorry, but no. She has potential, but she hasn't recognized said potential in a single film.
comics? this is a comic book movie? wut..?
Claire the Loon it’s based off of a French comic I think
This comic you don't know about is one main inspiration for Star Wars.
this movie has two of the most unappealing leads I've ever seen
Even the two best actors in the world couldn't save this movie with the same script given to them though. The script makes them say and do stupid ass things, and when the actors may know it, then it even gets worse, because they know it.
Too fuckin true
No you are wrong - they could have breathed some life into the dialogue so it wouldn't have been so mopey.
I actually loved the lead actors stoic personalities it gave off an evangelian feel
The moment I saw the first trailer I wasn't interested, because the two main actors look so board and pissed off that they are there.
"I guess Luc Besson wanted to revisit the last year that he directed a good movie..." Damn son! Why you gotta murder him like that?!?
The urge to walk out of the movie theatre during this movies was killing me. Only positive thing i can say is beautiful worlds. Plot was shit, acting was shit, characters were not likeable or relatable whatsoever. It had alot of potential and it just crashed and burned.
I'm surprised that valerian could keep such a job for that long given how stupid and un-professional he is. Fuck! As Jeremy said, it's pretty much a retarded move to propose to your girlfriend/co-worker DURING A FUCKING MISSION!!! Same goes for the girl (I forgotten the name but who cares), she's hardly qualified to hold such a position.
I just pretended it was a comedy lol
kodomo 98 - It kind of is, way more Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy than Interstellar for sure.
When I was at the movies all I did was eat hamburgers and talk on the phone with my friend in the bathroom. It was hard to even sit through the first 3 minutes of this movie.
Castigo
He did have a reason to kill him. If he didn't kill him he would have ended up as his partner did.
The only words running through my head during that whole abysmal movie were "discount Keanu Reeves"
Joshua Walker - The poster child for ‘Life is better on Xanax’.
Right, and for Cara Delevingne I kept thinking "discount Elle Fanning".
PeterAckarey
I have no idea who that is. So, I looked her up. Still have no clue. But I know one thing: that chick from the Valerian movie is waaaaaay hotter.
One sins removed for the stunning 3D. First time ever that 3D actually added something to a movie
MovieNerd_EP what about James Cameron’s Avatar?
The first time in Cinamasins-history, but moviewise there were others
MovieNerd_EP Nice profile pic!
DerangedEmu to be fair the beautiful cgi in avatar was just the icing on the cake
MovieNerd_EP
Gravity 3D Vs. Gravity are very different movie experiences.
so Valerian straight up frags a random alien fisherman with a smile but the guy who just ordered a genocide gets strung up for a comedic beat?
You missed a great one. At 6:22 or so their computer tells them that since leaving orbit, Alpha has traveled seven hundred million miles. That would place it still in the solar system, between Jupiter and Saturn.
Joseph Piatt yeah I thought the same, 700 000 000 miles is nothing in space. Hell a single light year is 9.5 times ten to the power of TWELVE kilometers. Space is simply uncomprenhensibly big.
It's been traveling 200mph for 400 years...
Most of us will rather see this video than the movie.
Yea, this movie was bad lol
True
Then you won't understand what's going on and you'll only see a sample of random parts in a movie.
Pretty dumb, but whatever
"Movie has time for this?" Can describe 75% of the film. I got extremely frustrated when I saw this movie in the theater at the part where the gal gets fished and then the movie has a 30 minute diversion that goes nowhere and accomplishes nothing.
Valerian's little respirator/spider-bot thing that cuts him out of the Mul-goo cocoon should've been red with the Swiss cross on it, like the future's version of a Swiss Army knife! The little spider-bot could've also been red with the cross on it, and like flicked thru a couple different tools before selecting the thin blade best suited to cutting thru the goo... That would've been cool; a Swiss Army knife that functions as a pocket knife, multi-tool, respirator, has an autonomous spider-bot in it, plus it's a flashlight/cellphone/communicator/butane lighter/sub-etha SensoMatic... I'd buy one!
I lost it at "Sergeant Enchantress"
It's true that this is not a great movie, but I would really like to explore more of this world. It's very interesting to me. Maybe they should've adapt it in game form instead.
Yeah, for sure... they could have done alot more with the movie since the world was really cool
I definitely enjoyed this movie, even if it wasn’t the best movie ever. I’d love some sort of Valerian RPG sorta game
couldn't agree more
It’s a pretty popular comic book series in France. This was based off of that.
Vicodyn under the right developers it might turn out pretty well
Luc Besson should've got Bruce Willis and Chris Tucker back together to make a sequel to 'The Fifth Element' instead of this.
Peter Frank id watch that in a heartbeat that movie so hilariohs
Chris Tucker is lazy and doesn't like doing movies.
They could just do a sequel in the fifth element universe with different people and a different story with a sprinkling of references and it would still be better than this
Would they call it "The Sixth Element"? Or "The Fifth Element... Two"?
agreed!!
12:17 "extra-cholestrials"
I'm dead.
15:42 - 15:56 Can't agree with you there. I'd go into why, but you really should know better.

White Void i personally loved "Dobby the House-Gunngan"
I just paused the vid to make this comment but you already beat me to it. Great line.
He said that just as I read it on your comment
*Galaxy Sauce*
The opening sequence with the Space Oddity song was the best opening sequence I've seen all year
Vincent Knight you didn’t see many movies last year I suppose
Over 100 lol. I wasn't a big fan of Valerian but that opening montage was just the best. Which one do you think was better
Yeah, then they had to ruin it by adding the movie.
That one was very good as well Nikodimos. Baby Driver was overall obviously a much superior film.
I forgot his name but like the male protagonist in this movie was soooo perverted and teenage hormone that it took away from the story.
The two main characters look like brother and sister
He sure makes some unappatizing moves on his sister, then . . . 0.o (I know, you said "look like"). Perhaps it's like Leia and Luke? Well, in the album series, they are definitely NOT brother and sister, but this uhholy pile of crap of a movie has deviated so blatantly astray from the albums, that I think of it as a seperate franchise. And then, they COULD be brother and sister. And have Harvey Swinestein as the uncle they shouldn't have been sent to that summer holiday twenty years ago . . .
Paul Singam I take it you're from Alabama.
That's what happens when the leads have zero chemistry.
Look more like brother and brother to me
I actually liked many things about this movie. I just can't fucking stomach looking at that dude's busted face for more than 5 seconds. Luc Besson was out his damn mind thinking he'd be a good lead for this movie.
Funny thing. In the comic, the two main characters WEREN’T involved. Ever. Funny how movies think a “hot” man (suggestible here) and a hot woman have to be together no matter what.
Stephanie Carlin and also it is Valerian who gets into trouble that Laureline has to bail him out.
Actually... they do eventually get into a relationship. But it takes a really long time.
They're in a relationship for most of the comic's five decade run.
What are you talking about, AlighaThor? They're not even from the same time period.
It's part of Hollywood's outdated playbook. They don't know how to do anything else. -__-
Poor casting choices that’s obvious from the beginning.
Yet another gorgeous movie, with the potential to be good, ruined by bad narrative and the need to cram in pop Instagram models who can't act.
She definitely can't act, but the girl modeled for Burberry before Instagram was even a thing. So Instagram model, she is not.
She's a model...on Instagram...so Instagram model?? That wasn't even the emphasis of the point. Being model =/= acting ability.
Nina Luongo She was probably a model because she had a rich family.
Zeloniy1 it safe to assume most of the models are in movies not because of their "great acting".
Nina Luongo doesnt justify her shit acting
I've got to ask: were they TRYING to make the two leads look like they're both about sixteen years old? Because they do, and it's creepy as hell, even before the "romantic" "banter" gets thrown into the mix.
I think they were trying to market this movie as a teenage power fantasy story(also were trying to do too much to sell as much as possible) just by how cynical and lazy the movie feels.
sterling7 Yeah, casting failed them. Fun fact, Dane is 31 and Cara is 25 but both looked like they're fresh off of middle school
Well, Tom Cruise was busy, so he got a lookalike that never ages as well....good for sequels...
I know! I thought I was just suddenly Old
Why would it be creepy if they are 16?
"Microsoft still can't keep their Xboxes backward compatible..."
Best. Line.
But MS can and Sony can't actually
Is actually Sony the one that cant even get their PlayStations to be backwards compatible 😂
All three consoles can't do it, well, they can, they just choose not to. at least Xbox let a few through, even if that just proves the point. It's really pointless too, I mean why would they just choose to not make money selling their current console with access to old games? It just means people have to after market them, which means that they are just losing money for nothing.
Happy The Cat well they have to get permission from the publishers to make it backwards compatible so I’m sure it takes time
This criticism is completely invalid, though. Because our current technology can't do something, super advanced future technology can't either?
13:56 its more like..hey we need to get valerian in. So how? Oh, lets have him hook up with shapeshifting alien. Why would the alien help him? Let him promise her some reward.
Later on, so now they have escaped...what to do with shape shifting alien? No idea...sooo...lets have her dead. Problem solved.
I actually really loved the dress up scene. That alien looked so happy and I watched it like 3 times. It was my favorite part of just about any movie in 2017.
The expression on its face as it holds up the dresses! XD
Lumibear it was just so amazing. It was so happy. Lol
Yaaassss!
Hello people from 6 years ago! I watched this movie this morning and I love love LOVE the happy alien lady with her stupid smile dressing the girl up
Velrian movie of the 1000 side-quests 😂😂
Cinema Sins sins counter: 1. This movie was based off a comic from 1953 (if my memory serves). From my understanding (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) george lucas got a few ideas from the comic; Watto was based off the 3 information aliens. In one comic, Valerian gets frozen in some sort of metal; Han got frozen in carbonite crystal. The ship Valerian flies has a similar design to that of the Millenium Falcon.
Yes but he's talking about the iconic quote that Han Solo makes and since we're talking film, technically Valerian (the movie) is being Star Warsy. Tho you are right that the comics came out before the Star Wars movies.
So... that means Valerian comic came firts, them Star Wars, them Valerian the movie, who make a full circle
I thought the two leads were siblings, so I got a shock when I realized they were not.
''The Harvey Weinstein school of workplace behaviour" Lol
You can tell Luc Besson is an old French guy with his view on 'romance' >.>
I've seen a better romance between a man and a broom. LMAO
Undrave
What does that mean?
That Luc Besson has a macho and outdated view of romance.
Undrave
But what does it have to do with his frenchness? French people are macho and outdated in terms of romance?
I just watched this movie. I loved it. 90% of it was so much fun. But i really found myself struggling with Dane as the male lead. As well as his voice. He sounded like he was doing an impression of Keanu Reeves. It really took me out of it. Cara felt fine to me. Their romance was blah, but i feel it could have been a lot better with a more convincing male lead. What a bummer it made so little money. I would absolutely go see the next installment in theaters.
Didn't even include 4 of the worst sins:
(1) the Pearls are somehow able to survive a planet being blown up by hiding in a spacecraft wreck.
(2) the Pearls elevate themselves from a hunter gatherer society to a space-faring society within 30 years, just by reading stuff on an alien ship whose language they don't speak, using equipment that they would have literally no comprehension of.
(3) Valerian can't go and confront the "Boulan Bathors" directly because it would cause a "diplomatic incident" - so.... kidnapping Laureline isn't *already* a diplomatic incident?? He then spends ages on a side mission to gain a disguise, which he promptly discards shortly before killing everyone... uh
(4) when she's captured Laureline is wearing an exoskeleton that was shown five minutes earlier as being capable of running through the space station from one side to the other, through the walls, but she doesn't use it to escape from a wooden cage... (she also conveniently forgets that she's a badass fighter...)
🤔 I hated that, but then I started to wonder.. Maybe they evolved over millions of years into a race of extremely intelligent Gods.. So technologically advanced that war was inevitable.. But at one point in their entire existence, they realized that the key to true physical, mental and spiritual peace, was the simple life..
But then again, it's a whole lotto bullcrap to spring it on us so suddenly.. Lazy writing..
You're better at CinemaSins than CinemaSons is and that's a sin! Lol I completely agree. Also did no one else spot the Jessica Rabbit Easter Egg? Why? It's not like Luc Basson w
Had anything to do with that movie. Maybe he's just a fan?
mechasentai
Hee hee, “rabbit easter egg”
I don’t know why that’s funny, but it made me laugh
Yep all of these were ridiculous writing and exactly what went through my mind at these moments
Also by learning human military and alien technology the pearls got weapons and ships 10 times better than everybody else also the war that destroyed is not explained
Going to the movies with this guy from CinemaSins would be hilarious... each time something's up he would be mumbling stuff like "What da.... cmonnn... no way... ahahah bullshit..." lol
Man this movie sounds like a train wreck of wasted potential. Great Sins video as always!
Hahahaha

This movie was soooo close to being a great movie. Tiny little unnecessary plot points and silly avoidable mistakes. Just not having Valerian and Laureline not have a romantic "will they/won't they" relationship but instead something like Widow and Cap in Winter Soldier would have been much better
Or simply the relationship they have in the comics.
I just don't get why they had to plug that bullshit romance story in.
It was very far away from being a good movie imo lol
DjMaffi
Ummm... Not to mention all the main actors being terrible at their roles... Or bubble dying for a dumb ass reason, after making her a more likeable character than any of the main characters in the first 5 mins she was on... Or the fact the two main characters played out this dumb ass douche bag and basic bitch fragile relationship?
No? None of that? Just tiny little mistakes?
Think you need to watch the video again.
* *ding* *
Bubble's death is an incredible waste of a character. I guess budget has to budget :(
DjMaffi What? It’s not bad. I didn’t see this but I’m sure it’s great.
"Valerian and the movie of a thousand side quests" you couldn't have said it better!
700 million miles wouldn't even be out of our solar system. I haven't watched this movie, but I'm hoping they didn't make that much of a mistake.
This film should be taught in film school on how not to build a world ...and a good reminder a thing called "emotion" is a *good* thing to have in a film.
it would've been a test to see how long they can stay awake lol
HA, emotion? What are you, a dork? This is a film for the cool kids only.
@@djolemacola only alphas here pansy
What? And take out the place of StarWars The Force Awakens??? No way!!! Let it remain as an example of a non movie :)
@@MauDaFaca I thought the setting was a nice mixture of star trek, star wars and halo and was more creative than some of the recent star wars' settings. I just thought the storyline lacked suspense and that the casting of the two leads was terrible.
Honestly remove the story and just give me an hour of random worldbuilding through CGI effects,no dialogue/narration,just us going through this place. some Sweet Eye candy
hahaha yes
this movie is so uninteresting that I struggle even watching this sin viideo
DrEsquizoide I watched it twice because my mom kept renting it for different family events lol that’s the only reason I watched it all the way through
DrEsquizoide same
You lucky buggers. I was in the theather and had to watch it.
Come on people . Agreed the acting was dull but the story was 1st grade
It's not the worst though. There are a few Sin videos on movies that are so boring I literally couldn't watch more than the first few minutes.
Sorry, but even if the space montage is a cliche, it's a damn good one.
I was about to say that as well. I think they just chose the wrong music for it. Don't get me wrong, I adore the song, but the whole "let's put old music over futuristic imagery" thing kinda turned cliche after the Guardians of the Galaxy. An original song could have been really nice.
Irene Adler Nah the music was awesome too.
Weinstein got roasted.
When
That's been in many EWW's
Ashvin Kapoor beginning
Not quite the very beginning, but after the initial setup and into the intro of the main characters at 2:07
Hollywood is run by his kind, he is the rule, an industry of sodomites
Why is Dane pulling his best Keanu Reeves impersonation?
And in this case, that's NOT a compliment
Keanu is a MUCH better actor than Dane. Could you see Dane pulling off The Matrix or John Wick?
Only, with less emotion.
That's exactly what i thought actually. The only thing that made his character interesting was that he was carrying the spirit of a female inside him, but he didn't even really get a chance to "play" that onscreen. Lol. More Keanu than Keanu. . .in a bad way, for sure.
I was gonna say toby mcguire with a really bad cold but that works too
ha I was thinking the same thing when I watched the movie, 2 things I didn't like about his character is 1 he's supposed to be a MAJ in the military but it looks like he never worked out a day in his life and 2 why does he sound like Keanu Reeves
This movie deserved a extra sin counter for every bloody time "Valerian" was said.
3:48 Sure, that Y-barrel gun looks cool, but unless the angle of divergence is tuneable, it can only target two enemies who are standing along two fixed axes, so it would probably be a useless feature at least 95% of the time.
I have to assume it's auto-targeting. Otherwise there's literally no reason it should exist unless the projectiles, like, loop back in and converge on a target from longer range or something.
But in straight use, it shoots doubletap quickly...which is a standard today!
Peter Duchovni DING
I mean maybe if he's just sitting at that desk constantly, and he keeps the placement of the chairs across from him super precise?
I don't know why I'm bothering to come up with headcanons for Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.
As much as I hate this movie, I love the french comics it's adapted from, A comics that inspired a lot of modern sci-fi, so giving the movie sins for "copying" star wars or star trek is a bit stupid
It's the movie adaptation that showed the copy 🐈 scheme of scenes and tropes that are actually different but similar to sw and trek cinema tropes.
Actually Star Wars took some ideas from the French comics.
There is a Valerian anime (French/Japanese collaboration if I remember correctly) that is absolutely fun & brilliant.
@@10tailedbijuu Valerian & Laureline: Time Jam
Basic sci fi tropes are pretty consistent throughout the genre. It's hard to make valid accusations of "copying." You might as well say every western with a saloon and cowboy shootout "copied" another. That said, the *comic* might have come before star wars/trek. But the MOVIE came AFTER those two immensely popular and influential IPs. So style, dialogue, visuals for the movie definitely could have been influenced by those, not the comic.
Was watching this Sunday and I enjoyed it. Didn't blow my mind or anything but it was okay
Sinenhlanhla Shange you have shit taste then
Tony Stark better that then the shitty character like the one you have.
Tony Stark lol thats why Cap beat ya ass in Civil War
King OatMeal yeah.. a prewritten script that has everything already planned out.. Someone wrote down that Captain America beat Tony Stark... But if it were an actual fight between these two fictional characters, it is most likely that Iron Man would win the battle. He's an uber genius inside of a super mech suit that can analyze fighting patterns. But truth is we'll never know because they do not exist...
Timmy Teaches well actually he did win in the comic template. he won through surrender of cap because of the fear of colleteral damage.
Casting a borderline hydrocephalic emo as a ladykiller action hero.
Done.
This is what happens when you walk into a casting agency and say "Give me someone who looks as intelligent as if he got his brains by getting punched in the face.... with a truck"
Well Tom Cruise can't play every action hero. Some of us like a bit of variety
I feel smarter from reading these comments
I'd love to see you re-do your older
darthnihilus1608 hahahaha no. do you know anything about the youtube algorithms? thats not possible today.
PattPlays hahahahahaha you do realize that’s why he wanted him to redo them so we can get more sins and a longer video. But personally I’m against the idea, because those are the videos where he didn’t sin useless shit now he sins everything I understand it’s haha funny but I mean most of the sins are useless and he is just clinging on for more sins
darthnihilus1608 I actually agree.. some of them are okay they way they are but some deff need to be redone
Pennylane is Almost famous
That would only be feasible in a month where he has nothing else to review.
We all clicked on this trash movie, but an edited reupload?
Half decade old movie? There goes a fourth of the views.
Movie ppl already saw him review? There goes another 4th.
Movie not trending in google and thus no new viewers get pulled in? Another cut.
Ppl who want to see a reupload do not outnumber these losses.
How does an algorithm prevent them from uploading a new video?
>Ladykiller
>Dane Dehaan
Ok dude
yeah unless he's got literal body parts in his fridge I'm calling bullshit on that one. That's the only definition of ladykiller that would be somewhat believable for this guy
The only reason I found out this movie existed is because Wu Yifan is in it lol
I know it's not Avatar but you have to admit, the designs of the aliens are breathtaking.
I loved that Christopher Plummer at the last second joke.
Yeah that movie I would've checked out
Here's an interesting tidbit: if the station has traveled 700 million miles since leaving terrestrial orbit...
... it's barely past the orbit of Jupiter. It still has a long way to go before passing Saturn.
A typical modern probe like the Voyagers is moving faster than that station.
firefly4f4
It's a space station, not a small drone
700 million miles is still 700 million miles.
The Valerian comics actually came before Star Wars
Not sure what it has to do with anything but an interesting little factoid, thanks.
Madafan was saying that because the video was claiming that the movie ripped off Star Wars. When actually Star Wars ripped off Valerian.
But that's something he regularly does. He'll say "X ripped off Y" even though he knows X came first. It's part of the joke.
This is CinemaSins not ComicSins.
It's only about the movie. Full Stop.
Explains why the movie felt so strangely subtly outdated.
Every review I've heard is either "It's so pretty you won't care that the story and characters are fail-tastic" or "It's so pretty they *hoped* you won't care that the story and characters are fail-tastic, but they were wrong!" So basically, someone saw how pretty Avatar was, thought you didn't need anything else but to similarly go all-out on the visuals, and you will enjoy this as much or as little as you can forgive that.
This movie was the definition of a hot mess. Absolutely gorgeous at first glance, but a real shit show if you bother to look any closer.
Or a server case of beer goggles. LoL
Yeh, but it’s a spectacle movie, lots of cool visuals within a barely necessary plot, so 3D on, brain off, chill out.
Can't wait to see *Everything Wrong With The Captain Underpants Movie*
Jean Rivas Honestly
It was pretty good
yes
