Superlative is an appropriate description for Luc Besson’s Fifth Element.
Everything in the sci-fi romp from 1997 is severely over the top.
Enjoyably so. For the most part. Luke Perry’s presence does not improve this movie either. Milla Jovovich, on the other hand, is in probably her finest role ever, and both Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman have been very appropriately cast in their roles as an everyman hero and a weird intergalactic criminal, respectively.
Some of the effects in the film were spectacular a decade ago – and the first glimpse into the truly three dimensional New York City still evokes a massive blob of sense of wonder.
Movie Monday #17: Superlative.
Leeloo: Everything you create, you use to destroy.
Korben Dallas: Yeah, we call it human nature.
Leeloo Dallas, multipass…
I just love this movie
it has been one of my favourites for a long time. And I agree that Jovovich probably is in her finest role in this one.
My superlative is still not found. Been terribly busy whole week :/
