Unfortunately not a good movie
17 February 2018
This movie could have been a tribute to the creative, smart and wonderful comics that it was adapted from. I expected Luc Besson to honor the tradition of french comic art but he failed. The two lead characters are totally unlikeable and played by two incompetent actors. Cara Delivigne is not able to get rid of her petrified stern look, I wonder if that lady is actually able to use all the muscles of her face. Looking at her makes me feel very uncomfortable, she looks more machine to me than the K5 robots. The design was totally over the top, as expected. A perfect ads movie for any LED vendor, everyone and everything had dozens of glowing lights all over them. Physical laws get ignored constantly, time and space seem to work differently from our own reality. The story plot was kinda constructed and did not convince at all. Where Fifth Element had great acting and a self-ironic humor, this movie was unfunny, full of really bad dialogue, way too long for the naive and uninspired plot and suffered from really bad acting, even from actors like Clive Owen. There was a lot of money dumped into the over the top CGI, but the end result has no soul at all.
