Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
Ancient curses, all-powerful monsters, shape-changing assassins, scantily-clad stewardesses, laser battles, huge explosions, a perfect woman, a malcontent hero--what more can you ask of a big-budget science fiction movie? Luc Besson's high-octane film incorporates presidents, rock stars, and cab drivers into its peculiar plot, traversing worlds and encountering some pretty wild aliens. Bruce Willis stars as a down-and-out cabbie who must win the love of Leeloo (Milla Jovovich) to save Earth from destruction by Jean-Baptiste Emmanuel Zorg (Gary Oldman) and a dark, unearthly force that makes Darth Vader look like an Ewok. --Geoff Riley

5 out of 5 stars pure entertainment   September 1, 2008
Gary L. Nelson
well after purchasing a 58"samsung plasma hdtv, and playstation for the blue ray,,, I had to get the 5th element blue ray as my first purchase. Wondering how much of a difference there would be from the std dvd, I can tell you that it is just beyond words. Now enough people have talked about the movie here so I am not going there, and they mention lots of other movies that "may" be better but one thing is for sure,,, how many times can you really watch 2001 a space od???? This one you can watch over and over again and still find it very entertaining. You just can't seem to get tired of watching it like those "classics". And chris tucker?, no one, and I mean no one could do what he did in this movie, it was just down hill for him after this role. just a must have DVD


5 out of 5 stars "unnnnbeelievable!"   August 30, 2008

"In a word, perfect"

No I am not talking about the perfect being, but about the remastered version of The Fifth Element on blu ray.
The first release was marred by horrible video transfer and sub par audio. The people cried out, and out voices were heard. Sony even offered to exchange the old ones for the better one.
This copy as perfect in every sense of the word. Awesome 1080p video, uncompressed audio, and a great movie.

Bruce willis, milla Jovovich, chris tucker, gary oldman, all do excellent in their parts. But the special effects are MIND BLOWING. I don't agree with the movie critic who called this "the star wars for our generation" when the movie was released in theaters, but it is one of my favorite movies of all times.

If you own a blu ray player, I call this a must buy, blind buy. Meaning that if you have no idea what it is about, it's still a must buy.

I'm a big fan of this movie. I've lost count of how many times I've seen 5th Element. Seeing it in Blue Ray was like seeing it for the first time. There were so many details I never noticed before. A must buy for your collection!
