If you don't like this movie, then I'm pretty sure you're dead inside. At the very least, you don't know what happiness is.
I'm going to name my first son Corbin Dallas Bradley. I mean that.
Big badda boom.
let’s just get this out of the way: i went through this entire movie thinking zorg was billy zane...?!?!?! i was like WHOA crazy how he’s doing the same rich villain character from titanic, also released in 1997, except in SPACE. why don’t we talk about this more often?
then the credits rolled and it said ZORG — GARY OLDMAN and i answered my own question :/ legitimately a more oscar-worthy transformation than the darkest hour
This could have been an instant cult classic, drenched in an exuberant campness reminiscent of films like Ice Pirates and blending fantasy with science fiction in a way not out of place in eighties classics like Krull.
It fleshes out a vivid universe and manages to muster up an engaging plot.
And just look at that cast:
Willis
Oldman
Holm
The immaculate Brion James.
And even whatshername is ok.
And Chris Tucker.
Chris fucking Tucker.
He singlehandedly destroys this entire film with a voice that would make the toughest among you cry for mercy.
He's like getting a hangover while you're drinking.
OK i went with my friend to see it at the theater and when i got back from the bathroom before it started, my friend loudly told me "you're the only one here who hasn't seen it" WHEN I WAS GONE SHE TALKED TO EVERYONE ELSE AND EXPOSED ME HDJSJSHSKSLBD BYE
Luc Besson's The Fifth Element was weird, inventive, stylish and so much fun, in which every actor seems to be having a blast. It's more than 20 years old and it manages to not age at all.
its rare to find a film with such a strong and unwavering vision throughout but fifth element, this goofy space movie, has it. just the most perfect.
This is so wonderfully goofy. Has anyone else completely walked away with a movie the way Chris Tucker does the moment he slides into frame here? His energy is insane. I could watch Milla Jovovich say Multipass on a loop forever.
“What’s the use of saving life if you live to see what you do with it?”
The Fifth Element has horrific female representation. Whether it’s the overly sexualized background characters, the demonization of the male protagonist’s mother, or the lack of prioritization of arguably the most crucial character of the entire film, Leeloo, the overall sensation I got from the watch was: the men are more important. I watched The Fifth Element because I thought it was a female focused sci-fi from the 90s and that idea seemed really exciting to me! But I was really tricked here because Leeloo is minimized so much so that Bruce Willis’ character is the shining star. Leeloo is the literal key to saving…
