5 November 2017
In the Century XVIII, the space station Alpha is a city where beings from different planets live together exchanging their knowledge and culture. Peace is granted by a human force, including Major Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and his partner Sergeant Laureline (Cara Delevingne). They are assigned by the Defence Minister (Herbie Hancock) to retrieve the last species of Converter in a dangerous mission. They succeed and back to Alpha, unknown humanoids abduct Commander Arun Filitt (Clive Owen) expecting to steal the converter. They head to a forbidden area that is infected but Valerian and Laureline follow them and disclose a hidden secret about the race and the infected area.

"Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" is an original and entertaining sci-fi action film directed by Luc Besson. The plot is supported by top-notch and visually stunning special effects. The lead cast show great chemistry and the idea of different dimensions and alien races is fantastic and fortunately there is technology to delight the viewer. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Valerian e a Cidade dos Mil Planetas" ("Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets")
