Incredibly fun sci-fi!
I found The Fifth Element to be an extremely enjoyable and entertaining experience; without being the greatest sci-fi film ever, it's bucket loads of fun.
The plot is about a great evil that comes to Earth every 5000 years with the intent of destroying it. The only way to combat this evil is using four stones and a "fifth ... read more

"Reason for the future sucking: A great evil, is about to destroy Earth, and only John McClane, Alice, Dylan McKay, and Detective James Carter, can save the day! Year it takes place: Mid 23rd Century"
" Over the top at times, and visually stunning, The Fifth Element might just be one of the best sci fi films to come from the 90’s. Playing like a live action Heavy Metal movie, Bruce Willis, plays Korben Dallas, a hard boiled taxi driver who gets a strange fare, a even stranger girl named Leelo, played by Milla Jovovich. Together, they have to save the universe from Evil and a evil industrialist, wonderfully played with manic energy by Gary Oldman. Audiences, enjoyed watching it and critic"

"Pros: It’s a beautifully odd and other worldly, unique sci fi action film. The depiction, of a futuristic New York City. The music by Eric Serra, as well as the Diva scene. The weird, out there humour. The attention to detail, from the buildings, to vehicles, and everything else in between. It’s a breath taking sci fi action, film. Mila Jovovich, it’s hard imagining anyone else that her as Leeloo. Bruce Willis, as Korbin Dallas. Gary Oldman, as the film’s main bad guy, Zorg. "

Hugely imaginative and enjoyable
“This sci-fi fantasy had a lot of ingredients to be great, a wonderful concept, Luc Besson who directed the brilliant Leon:The Professional and Gary Oldman who is one of the best underrated actors working today being just a few.The Fifth Element is a hugely imaginative and enjoyable film, with only Chris Tucker's annoying character and performance and the occasional lack of flow in the plot being its sole drawbacks. I adored the concept and the story even with the lack of flow never failed to intrigue.The script and satire are fun and slick, the visuals are breathtaking and unusual especially the amazing Big Apple effects with honourable mention to the camp trip to the resort planet Fhoston Paradise and there are plenty of thrills and imagination in the atmosphere to be had.Besson's directi” read more
