Critic Reviews:
- " If you're worn down by grim visions of the future, Valerian is the antidote. It's rambunctious and outrageous, but above all else, it keeps things fun. " – Steven Prokopy
- " The fantasy worlds and creatures rendered in astoundingly beautiful visual effects are worth the ticket price alone, dazzling in 3D and an immersive, imaginative delight. " – Cate Marquis
- " I think I can sum this film up by saying; The Visuals = Good Bonkers, The Plot = Bad Bonkers. Believe me, it's all bonkers. It is garishly multi-coloured bobbins on an insanely huge scale. It is mostly entertaining and the visual feast is worth it. " – Fiona Underhill
