Fifth Element, The (1997)

[MythingLink]

I don't know why, but I have watched this show several times. It completely draws me in each time. It's not just Bruce either.

I love the plot, all the characters (Gary Oldman is so weird and does such a good job in strange character roles), the special effects, all of it. In fact I had to make sure that my father watched it because I knew he would like it. He told me that from the trailers he didn't think he would, but after receiving my email to tell him he should he did ... and he liked it.

Cheers,

Awesome Movie

I have watched this movie at least 20 times - probably more. Bruce Willis is awesome - That scene in the hallway, when he opens the door and the thief is standing there in those suspender pants and the picture hat was fantastic, I laughed so hard.

I totally agree about Gary Oldman. He plays a wonderful, off the wall bad guy with a strange sense of reality.

I will continue to watch this over and over and over.

As will I. I particularly like the opera. That woman's voice was so beautiful and when they started linking to to the fight scene, it was incredible.

Liked the Flim. I would like to know who played the blue Opera singer.

Wasn't she fantastic? That was not an easy piece to do, and she was magnificent. I could listen to her almost all day.

Cheers,

Greetings from the Supreme Being!

No one has picked up this thread for a while, but I will post anyway. I loved this movie! If I have watched it once, I have watched it a hundred times, and it catches me EVERY time! I have it on DVD now, so no risk of wearing the tape out anymore. The blue opera singer has a Spanish/or African name (I cannot remember now, I looked last time, but now I cannot remember her name). I think it is such a clever and fast paced movie. Little effects, like the whoosh when the buxomy woman soldier nods her head to Corbin (when the Commander announces that she will be his wife on the trip to Floston Paradise), and the cherry in the glass of water scene are so good! I think it is interesting that there is a common thread of Eqyptian themes in scifi movies. I like how that ties aliens/space travel to something so "earthy" and ancient. That's my nickes' worth! See ya!

What a film!!!!

My hubby and I watched this film 'together'. I thought it was brilliant, hubby thought it pants. Yet every time its on I try to sit and watch it again. The coloured chap in it(can't remember his name) is so funny. I laugh every time. Gary Oldman is also very funny. It makes a change to see an actor play different roles.

I absolutely love this movie as well. Most of my friends think its stupid, but there's just something about it that makes me keep watching it over and over and... well you get the picture. My fav scene would have to be leeloo's fight scene thats choreographed to the opera.

Its cool

I watched this film last night and thought it was real good. Liked LeeLoo fighting all the monster things and that guns were cool. Fire one shot and all the rest go to the same place! Cool or what. I'd recommend it.
Bye
