the fifth element

PeakOutput

saw it again last night after a few years and its still one of my favourite films good action and very funny. anyone else think this is great? i would say its as good as serenity when it comes to this kind of sci fi action comedy thing but i know the serenity people will hang me for that

I really like this film. I've seen it plenty of times and don't get tired of it. I also thought Serenity was a great film, I wouldn't like to compare them though, mainly cause I just don't like to do that. I'm sure you could find good and bad points to both (not many bad ones though) but I couldn't say one is better than the other.
Don't think anyone will hang you either, it's just your opinion. It's not like you said it was a fact.

The Fifth Element is a great movie. Fast paced, great characters, amazing visuals etc. I don't think it's fair to compare it to Serenity as they are different movies, and Serenity had a TV series to work on it's character development.

Both great movies in their own right.

It is a terrific film. There's just something impressive about the way it was made - it feels vibrant, exciting and original. Some of the scenes are utterly weird as well. I saw that scene where

the blue opera singer gets cut open

years ago and it has always stayed with me as a very odd looking scene.

As for comparisons with Serenity, I am hardcore Browncoat so can't necessarily agree, although I think they are both excellent examples of the sci-fi action genre.

Any film with a nearly naked Milla Jojovich is a great film. Great performance from Gary Oldman and Bruce is his reliable wise-cracking self.

What do you mean 'nearly'? Did you miss the start or something? You can keep her though, she's awfully skinny.
Very enjoyable film. A lot of people I know hate it. Too weird for a lot of tastes but I love it.

Jojovich is incredibly hot, and very cute in this movie. It's a nice bit of escapism wrapped up in a bit of sci-fi, but I've seen Jojovich in many other movies, and she's not half as nice. Chris Tucker puts on a great performance.

Love it. It's just such an enjoyable, fun movie. It does divide opinion though, I know people who love it and others that hate it.

Fantastic film, Milla Jojovivich is actually good in it, Gary Oldman on great form, good action and very funny.

Unless its a full front shot then it doesnt count as naked. And the woman is a goddess. The sexiest eyes ever.

What's the point in showing a stick insect with no curves naked? There's nothing to see!

watever about her body but she is cute as hell in that film

I don't think milla jovovich is a stick insect. She's insanely hot. Pity she's only in sh*te like resident evil and ultraviolet.:mad:

I would have imagined having a bunch of bricks in your stomach would affect your career as an opera singer... but I guess not...

+1 Ruby Rhod is up there with my favourite movie characters.

"No no no no no no. 'Cuz if it was a bomb, the alarms would go off 'cuz all these hotels have bomb detectors, right?

And so on...
