Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)
What moron thought Dane DeHaan would make a good romantic lead
A good movie ruined by the ridiculous casting of Dane DeHaan asa swashbuckling, romantic lead. He ruins every scene with bad acting. He's neither heroic and the romantic chemistry between he and Cara Delvinge has all the sparks of a dripping sink.
The imagery is creative and the story inventive. A good story spoiled by one missed casting of the title character. Dane is not a romantic, nor a dashing heroic lead.
He's a little boy, playing toy soldiers.
DeHaan comes off like a prepubescent, nurtured 13 year old boy. He's less convincing as a "dangerous hero." His threatening stature has all the menace of Winnie The Poo.
