Rich imagination for the future

The prototype of the Star Wars smuggling ship is the car of the protagonist in this movie. Two interstellar detectives, Valerian and Lorraine, experience their adventures and their love in this spaceship.

The plot of the movie is relatively simple, direct and brutal. A big villain, for his own selfish interests, destroys a planet and does not hesitate to kill his own compatriots. In the end, the conspiracy was discovered by two agents and destroyed with the assistance of loyal people. In the process, the love of the two interstellar agents also sublimated to a new level. It's tacky and uninspired, but the details and the imagination in the details are fascinating.

The first point is that from the very beginning, there was a scene of great national integration in the whole universe. Human beings welcome creatures from various planets, and they all use handshakes. This undoubtedly makes people laugh, and at the same time, they also nodded and said yes, after all, human beings are the universe. the subject.

The second point is that four hundred years later, Miao Xing, who relied on a pearl-like ball as the source of matter, was destroyed, and at the moment of destruction, Princess Miao Xing's soul communicated with the male protagonist.

The third point is the process of the agents taking back the transformed beasts. They used a virtual reality space travel technology to obtain the little creature through space, and after some twists and turns, they finally succeeded. But that's just the beginning of the story, and the real big bad has just emerged. This section is very exciting, it reminds me of a Japanese anime I just watched. There is a term in it called augmented virtual reality, but the reality in this movie is real. Interaction, a step forward from virtual reality. Technological development may also require more imagination.

The fourth point is the description of the terrifying robots. These robots are only responsible to the person in charge and destroy all the objects that the person in charge requires to be eliminated.

The fifth point is the three platypus, which is a coincidence, but it is also the epitome of human beings.

The sixth is the jellyfish and those water giants in the process of catching the jellyfish. The lines are full of imagination. For example, giant beasts can provide clean water for jellyfish. Although they are still the epitome of hermit crabs and sea anemones, it is really not easy to create such dazzling lines.

The seventh is the plot of fishing people with light butterflies. The monsters are so ugly that I don't want to think of them. It is unimaginable that such a foolish creature could come up with such ingenious decoys.

The eighth is the role of Bubble, which is one of several moving characters in this movie. She sacrificed her life for her friends, appreciated love, and pursued it boldly. She is designed to be ever-changing, and she can become any person or thing she wants to be at will. As long as she can get affirmation and love, she is willing to give everything, even her life. Her death is regrettable and adds color to the film.

Bubble's death seems to be a turning point, after that, the movie doesn't have many new interesting ideas, it falls into the cliché of human nature, exposes the conspiracy, struggles, and finally defeats the conspiracy. Justice triumphs, though not easily, and evil ultimately loses, albeit with heavy losses. And most importantly, the sublimation of the hero and heroine's love makes the movie fall into a cliché, and I think many people hope for a different ending. It's good to have a big reunion, but in a movie, the members become less and less popular with the audience.

The ninth is the soundtrack of the film, especially the long section at the beginning. Love, across the universe and time and space, makes people yearn.

The film is full of French humor and romance, as well as Hollywood-style plot, the two don't quite match, but, what should I do, the story must always be told.

    Three and a half stars is almost the same as imagined because the original comic book is definitely not bad in the script, the visual effects are amazing, and the viewing experience is amazing, but Luc Besson didn't manage to control such a big story. The filming is still very vulgar. But the performance is not very good and worth watching but don't expect too much / Wu Yifan's performance is good / The recent European movies are all about illegal immigration, even Rihanna is not immune

    Boys fall in love with girls and girls fall in love with boys, but they have to go through many obstacles and big adventures to love each other. This vulgar grandma’s story text is unexpectedly beautiful under the special fashion taste of Luc Besson, exquisite world settings and special effects. It can be said that the fifth element is an upgraded version. This year is really the year when Chinese capital flows into Hollywood. It is really a wonderful impression to watch the five-star red flag and Wu Yifan appear in this movie. ps Rihanna is picturesque

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets quotes

  • Major Valerian: Everything okay?

    Sergeant Laureline: Yeah. You're missing out on a lot of fun.

    Major Valerian: Don't worry. We'll be on the beach soon.

  • Major Valerian: That convertor is government property. And most likely the last one left in the universe.

    Sergeant Laureline: So you buy into the Commander's "what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine philosophy"?

    Major Valerian: No, I buy into my Oath of Allegiance. We have no authority to hand it over.

    Sergeant Laureline: We must make amends.

    Major Valerian: Yeah, I agree, but it's not for us to decide. Leave it to the courts.

    Sergeant Laureline: They're eighteen million years away, Valerian! Only we can make this right.

    Major Valerian: Laureline, I'm a soldier. I play by the rules. It's what makes me who I am.

    Sergeant Laureline: [regards him sadly for a long time] You see? That's why I don't wanna marry you. Because you don't know what love is.

    Major Valerian: Oh, come on, this has nothing to do with love.

    Sergeant Laureline: That's where you're wrong. Love is more powerful than anything else, Valerian. It breaks all rules, all laws, and overpowers any army or government. Just look at her. For one second, put yourself in her position. She lost all of her people and her child, and she's willing to forgive. That's real love. It's the trust you place in someone else. I thought I could be that someone else for you. But clearly...

    Major Valerian: You can! You are. I'd die for you.

    Sergeant Laureline: I'm not asking you to die for me. I'm asking you to trust me.
