“So visually bonkers it’s almost impossible to absorb all at once. Anyone who’s seen The Fifth Element already knows Besson’s ga-ga sensibility is unencumbered by taste. There’s a rip-roaring recklessness to Valerian’s tangents, like the scene in which Laureline needs to locate her missing partner by sticking her head inside the ass of a psychic jellyfish.” – North Shore Movies, 07/21/2017
