This is as close to a sequel (in spirit and anesthetic) to The Fifth Element as we will get. And it was just as quirky and goofy and visually intriguing as said film. The biggest difference is that Dane DeHaan is not meant for this role. He feels like an understudy filling in at the last moment for the actual lead and the film suffers for it. I would have rather has Cara Delevigne be the focus as she played her character wonderfully. All that being said, the visuals were phenomenal, the creatures fun, the space battles engaging, and the general world building quite solid. If this were a Netflix series instead of a film, I'd watch season upon season set it this quirky universe. As it is, I mostly enjoyed this odd, sometimes ridiculous, space romp.
