| Baret NewsKam WilliamsAll I can say after watching it is, 'Wow!' |
| RogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiIt's a film filled with humor, charm, excitement and so many memorable images that many viewers will find themselves struggling to keep from blinking so as not to miss any of the eye-popping delights crammed into each overstuffed frame. |
| The Hollywood NewsKat HughesA visual viewing experience like no other, be prepared to see the world in much more than just technicolour. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumJimmyOValerian is weird, wild and kind of wonderful. |
| PolygonSusana PoloThe first half of Valerian is a creative romp that I would recommend to many people, its middle is a grimace-inducing detour and its finale never quite recovers the film's initial momentum. |
| We Live EntertainmentScott MenzelLuc Besson has achieved visual perfection that has far surpassed what Marvel and Disney have achieved over the past decade. |
| Dark HorizonsGary DowellThe movie could have skated by if the leads were at least charismatic and fun, but DeHaan and Delevigne are stilted and dead-eyed in just about every scene. |
| Associated PressJake Coyle[Dehaan and Delevingne's] chemistry is nonexistent, the dialogue is cringe worthy and the story is clunky... But the images are frequently extraordinary. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt's the kind of film you can go all in with its flow and love it, or roll your eyes by how bloated it is and hate it. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderBig, unabashedly geeky fun, but the dialogue is weak and Dane DeHaan is all wrong to play a swaggering, self-assured bad boy. |
