I know is old but there was in tv some few hours and wow I loved the movie even if I didnt watched the beggining
I like the style a lot and was very original

I dont know why but I consider many movies of the 90 to be the best ever imo and in the recents years very few movies has been good
 
yeah i totally love this movie, it goes on TBS every so often and I watch it every time.
 
it looks beautiful - so much colour and style
the violence is pretty kickass too!! : )
 
It has moments of brilliance but it's pretty confused and falls flat at the end. But it's definitely worth watching. :D
 
Love Luc Besson's visual style of the future, great film.
 
I really liked that movie ..it was directed by Luc Besson (who did the must see Femme Nikita) with set designs by legendary french Illustrator Jean Giraud better known as Moebius and with costumes by fashion designer Jean-Paul Gaultier based on Moebius' drawings

I find interesting so many unknow directors made better movies that the average famous ones

Multipass!

tis amazing

Tho im not completly obsessed witrh Stargate Sg-1 its got such a detailed back story :O

:drools:
 
I love the stewardesses(did i get that right?) in that movie...their outfits is so haawwt :D
 
i liked the movie a lot. even if you dont like it, the 5th element is one of those movies everone has to see
 
Luc Besson is a fantastic director:

Nikita
Leon
The Fifth Element
Joan of Arc

And apparently he is planning to make a film version of an Iain M Banks book. If he pulls that off it'll be amazing beyond words.
 
Hopefully it's walking on glass!

Although it's more likely to be one of his more traditional sci-fi books.
 
Great spectacular visual style that lacks substance. It's worth a view if only for how great it all looks. :)

Leon the Professional ftw.

Noob. That's Iain Banks, not Iain M. Banks. :p

edits: Besides, how would you make a film of it? :eek: Consider Phlebas would work.
 
My roomate just watched it the other month on TV....he never saw it previously, and he enjoyed the movie alot. It has comedy, action, suspence..great all around movie.
 
I hated this movie the first time I watched it. Then I watched it again and kind of "got it". I love it now and own it on DVD.

ARGH that's the most annoying coincidence ever.

You could make a film of it if you had a really good script writer/ director :p
 
The Fifth Element should be mandatory viewing to anyone who thinks they know anything about films. Pure genius.

Incidentally, since Nikita's getting so much love in this thread, I'll mention that it's one of my absolute favourite films.

Apparently its going to be The Player of Games (although I think Consider Phlebas or Use of Weapons would be better). If you're interested in film versions of Iain Bank's books theres a movie of Complicity (which is utter shite) and the BBC did a TV series of The Crow Road, which is supposedly very good.
 
greatest scene is when corban gets ruby rod to count to ten, and that scream he gives when the bomb goes off...the way the scream dies off cracks me up everytime i watch it!
 
I thought the best scene was the one where he nagotiates whith those space pirates or whatever they are.
 
First time I watched this, I loved it... Second time round though, I found it almost cringeworthy. The opposite of Crisis King. It's a film you need to "get", but I've no idea how I was able to "un-get" it after a year or so :p

It could be because I was watching it for a study in "Women and Science Fiction Films", so I was probably exercising my latent feminist streak or something. I think I wrote about Leeloo's "masking tape" costume in the exam. It worked, because I only dropped a couple of marks on that paper ^_^
 
Gary Oldman is great in this movie. The whole thing is just action-packed, funny, and with awesome visuals.

Ruby Rod, LOL
