Just way too over the top to be taken seriously

Rating: Null/10 (14 September 2018)

Fifth Element looks great and the special effects saturation hadn't set in back then yet, as it has now so there is that sense of visual wonder. But the screenplay lacks consistency and the fast-paced action can only hold your attention so much. Bruce Willis plays the Taxi Driver, assigned with assisting the fifth element- which happens to be a human being, Milla Jovovich. Unlike John Mclane however he is content to stay low key in this one possible future. Jovovich is alright and Chris Rock is rather annoying, even though he isn't even there all that much. Watch The fifth element to get dazzled by the special effects and the futuristic world build by Luc Besson, because that is pretty much all the film has to offer.
