Clichéd, predictable, and verging on plagiarism

Rating: 4/10 (7 September 2006)

...how on *earth* did this rubbish get nominated for an Oscar? Don't waste your time on The Fifth Element, just watch the movies it steals every single idea and plot-line from. Take a liberal dose of Blade Runner, throw in a splash of Brazil, a good shake of Star Wars, salt with some Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and top off with an oh-so-trite James Bond ending.
A complete and utter waste of time, and Tucker's character has to be one of the most annoying in cinematic history - and is also one of the most blatant of the plagiaristic ripoffs in the movie, being an almost exact copy of the character Max Quordlepleen from the Hitchhiker's book "Restaurant at the End of the Universe".
Truly shameful.
