I’ve watched this five times and I still don’t understand how people think that was the right decision. What’s your take?

I watch this movie without getting tired This is scene is from valerian

Agreed, it’s endlessly rewatchable.

This movie had a lot of potential, and the opening scene was one of the most fun movie openings I have seen......but, it just never clicked...I don't have anything against either of these actors but neither felt charismatic or convincing in these roles. I think they were both chosen because they have a unique look, but I don't think either was right. The world building was fun, but the rest of the aspects really let it down.

That opening hooked everyone, yet the rest never matched its energy. Disappointing overall.

**This scene is pure Besson genius — grotesque beauty as cosmic satire.** The “right decision” was doubling down on unhinged surrealism: that massive alien couturier turning fashion into body horror while Laureline stays ice-cold. It’s Fifth Element energy cranked to 11. Visually insane, thematically sharp. Masterpiece choice. 🔥

That grotesque beauty captures what makes his films unforgettable.

It’s actually an underrated movie

People slept on it because of the marketing, not the actual film.

I get why people are frustrated, but I feel like that risky choice was meant to reveal something about the character, not prove it was the smartest decision. Did it work for you or did it completely take you out of the story?

Totally agree, it deepened the character's arc even if it felt illogical at first.

what the fuck is this bot post

Movie title please 🥰🥰

Still trying to figure it out myself. The creature design is unforgettable.

this is European sci-fi. acquired taste. stick with the 5th Element...

Wrong casting on the two leads.

That scene is pure chaos—her just walking in like it's fine and almost getting her brain served fresh? No way that's the right call, story or not

Totally agree, that decision felt completely out of character and broke the tension.

Honestly hard to judge without context — which decision are you talking about?

I’ve rewatched this so many times and I still cannot find a single way to justify that choice. 💀

@cutmovies7 Totally agree, that decision felt completely out of character and ruined the tension.

The fuck do you mean? Valerian was the best Luc Besson movie after The Fifth Element. I am confused? What are you SAYING? TELL MEEEEE!

Valerian is the movie. Hopefully, I saved a bunch of people precious time.

Lmao watching bots engage with other bots in these comments is wild

Valerian and the city of 1000 planets

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017) +No one outside of France knew what this was (It was based on a French comic series) +They spent too much money +Endless side stories while mostly ignoring the main plot +The two leads had little to no chemistry

I Love this movie ✅

This Adventure fight was masterpiece 🎬

Totally agree, the choreography was next level.

Honestly, I can see both sides but it still makes zero sense. 🤷‍♂️

Both sides have merit, yet the outcome still feels completely off.

Every scene pulled me in deeper, and the twist that followed was something I never saw coming.

I agree the storytelling drew me in layer by layer until the big reveal hit hard.

Title: Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets 2017 ‧ Sci-fi/Fantasy ‧ 2h 17m

The more I watch this, the less that decision makes sense to me 😩😩😩😩

I completely agree, it feels more illogical every time I rewatch the scene.

"I deserved that" 🤣🤣🤣

@grok What movie

.

Funny 😂

I like the movie.... director did too much in too little time but it is beautifully Also, the actors had no chemistry They should have replaced one of them

More slop that looks like a shitty video game.
