'Never Seen It' - Episode 36 - 'Valerian' is a very extra movie

Director Luc Besson's big budget sci-fi film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets may have flopped when it hit theaters last year, but it still made a handful of critics' top 10 lists, which made me and my wife Elizabeth Rosado curious.

We're both fans of Besson's The Fifth Element, and the this film seems to borrow many of that quirky cult film's aesthetic. But does this movie work on its own terms?

We explore this question and more in the latest episode of our work-in-progress movie podcast Never Seen It (you can find all our previous episodes here).
