Product Description


Review

Sight and Sound, 07/01/1997, p.39-40, "...Besson's comic irreverence is welcome..."

Total Film, 12/01/2003, p.125, "...Besson's future world is stuffed silly with visual pizzazz..."

Uncut, 12/01/2003, p.159, "Bruce Willis' taciturn hero and Milla Jovovich's super-femme still hold firm at the heart."

New York Times, 05/09/1997, p.C3, "...Mr. Besson directs with ceaseless flamboyance and with an obvious enthusiasm for his film's comic book conceits..."

Entertainment Weekly, 05/16/1997, p.84-6, "...Luc Besson's kick-ass sci-fi jamboree works as hard as any movie can to ensure that we're completely, maximally entertained..."

Los Angeles Times, 05/09/1997, p.F1, "There's no doubt about it, when it comes to saving the world, Bruce Willis is your man. He does it with smarts and style, humor and courage..."

Product Notes

A visual feast combining ancient mysticism, cyberpunk sensibilities, flamboyant entertainment personalities, and gun-toting alien mercenaries. In the 23rd century, Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis), an ex-special forces agent who now practices as a down-and-out cabbie, finds himself caught in a struggle to defy a prophesied Evil from destroying the Earth when a mysterious woman (Milla Jovovich) falls into the back seat of his cab. Pursued by both the government and a powerful magnate enlisted by the forces of Evil (Gary Oldman), the woman is the key to Earth's salvation, known only as the Fifth Element. This was French auteur Besson's first offering with Hollywood backing. Academy Award Nomination: Best Sound Effects Editing.

5 out of 5 stars As good as cliche gets, June 13, 2008
By jon89
Now im not usually a fan of stories based on the 5 elements of life, but this is a hilarious but interesting movie. Die Hard meets Blade Runner. And please, give it up for an amazing perfomance by Chris Tucker. The best scene is the plane scene with this funny man onboard. Though very feminin, he still manages to please the ladies. Perfect movie for when the girlfreind goes to bed after watching the Notebook or some other bad movie.
