Wächter der Galaxis

I loved the visuals and sound effects, the animation was top notch.

The story lacked and there wasn't much character development, I don't know if it's a lost in translation thing or just lacked altogether.

Still it's a fun popcorn flick to watch once or twice if you just want some mindless fun. There's no sex, nudity or constant swearing so it's kid (and elderly) safe, something for the entire family.

For me, it was a free watch on Amazon Prime so there wasn't any buyer's remorse. Also for 2 hours the movie moved by very quick and never really bogged down at any point.

Just...bizarre.. I really can't come up with anything else. The fact that I'm watching it with English voice over is just adding to the bizarreness of it. It might be OK acting. Can't tell. Seems silly and campy. Looks pretty enough... but bizarre. Kinda juvenile. I'm assuming it's got a big budget. I mean I'm sitting here watching it and its just silly. But there's a sense of wonder to it I can't deny. I'm enjoying it.. I think kids will love it.

Very bad storytelling. I had to watch ONE HOUR before I was granted an explanation of what the story was about. Actors are okay, some girls are cute, CGI is okay even though it lacks any style. Music is heavily plagiarized from US movies and video games (Lucasarts). As a whole, this is obviously a try at making in-house Hollywood action sci-fi. Could be worse, but could be better than this cheesy story. A better director would help.

"Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" , 2017

Visually wild, but a somewhat unfocused plot.

Defo worth a peek, it's always refreshing to watch something that has no identity politics

I had not even heard about "Vratar Galaktiki" (aka "Cosmoball") prior to getting the chance to sit down and watch it. So I had no idea what I was in for, nor what I should or could expect from the movie.

Well, I managed to endure an hour of the movie, then I just gave up out of sheer and utter boredom. The storyline told in "Vratar Galaktiki" was just rubbish. It was so simplistic that it seemed like it was written by a 5th grader, which was just impressive as they had no less than 5 writers working on the script. So I was amazed with the fact that the storyline turned out to be such a boring result.

While the movie lacked greatly in the story department, then the movie was more than generous in the visual effects and presentation department. Wow. Just wow! I must admit that "Vratar Galaktiki" was visually stunning to look at. The attention to detail and the creativity unfolding on the screen was just spectacular. However, visuals can only do so much for a movie that is flatlining in the storyline department.

And I was unfortunate enough to watch a dubbed version. That is a horrible experience. A movie should be enjoyed in its original language, as more than often is the dubbing work of questionable quality.

After having sat through 1 hour of pointless storyline and not caring one ounce about the characters or the plot, I just gave up. And I can honestly say that I have zero intention of returning to finish watching the movie.

My rating of "Vratar Galaktiki" lands on a three out of ten stars. And that is solely because the visuals and CGI does manage to elevate the movie to that point.
