Yeah, I'd never seen her before, that I can remember. I would have expected that movie to launch her career, and maybe she does a lot of lesser known movies, but I that was from 2017, so if she were going to become a household name, I would think it would have happened by now.And gawd DAMN is she hot lol.
I think she looks like a dude, or weird, too drugged out, or somethingAnd gawd DAMN is she hot lol.
I watched most of it but it lost me. First, you are so right about the the word Valerian. Every line of dialogue from Laureline began or ended with "Valerian". What's with that?Watched Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets with some friends. We had a drinking game going that we'd had to take a drink every time they said Valerian, Laureline, or showed a pearl.
We're all lucky to still be alive. I think half of Cara Delevingne's dialogue is the word Valerian, especially during the big chase scene. Nevertheless, she was the best part of the protagonist duo.
In fact, Dane DeHaan's Keanu Reeves impression was distracting. Definitely the worst part. His best scene was when he was sitting in the background while Rihanna just put on a show.
Besides the scrawny male protagonist, who should've at least did a few bicep curls before filming, the other negative for the movie is sometimes the details of the plot was hard to follow.
I agree, definitely The Fifth Element and Avatar vibes. I'd add Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace to that list. Specifically the Gungans of Naboo, i.e. the aliens after Rihanna.
I also agree with your score. The special effects were mostly great and it was mostly entertaining. I mostly enjoyed it and I mostly recommend it. Or I was just drunk. Maybe both.
She's got a pretty prominent modelling career, she was also in Suicide Squad and she was pretty good in Only Murders In The Building. I just finished watching the second season of Carnival Row a couple days ago, where she plays the lead and thought she did a nice job. I enjoyed the series, liked the world they were building, the sets and costumes were well done, but unfortunately it's been cancelled.
If you're referring to the movie Suicide Squad, with Margot Robbie, I don't remember seeing her. I stopped watching Only Murders just a few episodes in, and don't remember her from that either. Never seen Carnival Row.
She was the Enchantress, I'd like to see more of her in that role, she played it pretty well....
I was mostly alright with her physicality, it seemed Black Widow-esque. I just remembered another movie that they borrowed from that @Runwildboys and I forgot to previously mention, Men in Black.
You're right, I did think of that at one point.I was mostly alright with her physicality, it seemed Black Widow-esque. I just remembered another movie that they borrowed from that @Runwildboys and I forgot to previously mention, Men in Black.
Yeah, the intro on this one was right out of Nightmare on Elm Street.
I found it to be a well crafted film overall, but the animal cruelty stuff was tough for me to watch. In my opinion, while I appreciate what Gunn is saying and agree wholeheartedly with it, I don’t think this was the place to say it.Guardians Of The Galaxy Volume 3 (2023)

“SHE’S A GOOD DOG!”
This movie in particular REALLY pushes me towards buying current issues because I had NO clue Adam Warlock had changed so much from my days as a comics collector. Sorry. Nerd moment. Okay.
Volume 3 is a great third and final chapter of the series, although the jokes during the first 20 minutes or so were very good but missed their timing in my opinion. Plus, the excitement (and the jokes) did not take off until near the end of the ’corporate break-in’. The pre-hype was matched and exceeded afterwards though.
Everyone, from the stars to marginal cast, had great dialogue. Pom Klementieff (Mantis) and Karen Gillan (Nebula) received more material and screentime than usual. Chukwudi Iwuji’s High Evolutionary was as sadistic as I remember from the books.
The movie’s spotlight is Rocket. James Gunn does a wonderfully solid job telling his story and his importance to the team. Audiences should go in expecting heart strings to be pulled from beginning to the very end, whether it is Rocket or the rest of the crew.
Rest assured, Gamora is addressed. I did not like how but only from a selfish perspective. Gunn did right by her.
Two cut scenes are embedded in the end credits. The first one rolls fairly quickly and is perhaps a glimpse of the team as cameos in future movies.
The second one is at the very end. Be sure to pay attention to the newspaper, lol.
The opening ‘Marvel Studios’ is a tribute to the franchise in a ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ type way. And the end credits contain many snapshot memories of everything connected to the team, whether from the big or small screen.
Time for an avatar change…
Agreed. I liked it but the wife like d it more. I think it was more catered to women. But I can not remember the last Tom Hanks movie I did not at least like.
