I thoroughly enjoyed this flick! Better than Star Wars by a mile and a half!

I don't know why it seemed to get panned by the critics, I guess their marketing budget didn't cover the cost of buying off cheap journos, but for a full on science fiction movie aimed at young people this ticked all the boxes and left room for sequels and spin-offs.

I hope Luc Besson gets the chance to take this where it can go. Certainly going into my cult classics collection.

It's rated lower than Prometheus... Therefore, by your own "standards" (LOL, you with standards), you're not allowed to enjoy this unless you justify your appreciation to the satisfaction of some random blowhard who spends years badgering you about it.

Does that sound right? Or are you a hypocrite?

Oh and I like how you insult critics you don't even know by labeling them as dishonest sellouts. Judging others, isn't that a big "no-no" in your book?

Or is it perhaps that you're exactly what you accuse others of being? Projection much?

It's better than The Last Jedi. I can give it that.
