The movie itself was... okay. It was entertaining and had good effects, but the story left much to be desired. And when you look at the book, it quickly becomes clear that they've turned something valuable and interesting-something with substance-into something shallow and insignificant. Like a bag of chips: it's fine for an evening snack, but something more substantial would have been better. The movie is a big steaming pile of nothing with Star-Lord and Stoneface MBB. But for what it was, it was okay. At times it was quite funny, and sometimes it even managed to evoke emotions. The fact that the Star-Lord character was less proactive than MBB was a bit strange, and the way he hid behind robots and a teenager felt nonsensical. It's a shame about what it could have been, but since it was a Netflix production, it actually could have been significantly worse.

A good movie, however, there were a few too many coincidences, which can throw one off track now and then. All in all, though, very beautiful, sometimes touching, and often extraordinarily funny.

It is sad and beautiful to watch them desperately fight to keep living this lie or to bring it into reality.

I would watch more movies like this, however, I hope that if they make more, they rely less on coincidences and more on the actions of the characters.

Anya is truly adorable and super funny in this movie. However, the story around Yor and Loid was a bit weak and could have used more depth. Visually, it was a very beautiful film with charming animation.

Don't forget to watch the little bonus scene after the credits. :)
