This is one of my three favorite Movies That Don't Take Themselves Seriously. The other two are Big Trouble in Little China and Tank Girl(not furry). Unlike these, The Fifth Element includes decent to excellent acting. This means, basically everyone is decent and Gary Oldman is EXCELLENT. We have Chris Tucker playing Chris Tucker, Bruce Willis playing Bruce Willis, and Milla Jovavich(did I slaughter this? Prolly.) playing HOT. Ahem. The acting's not what's important in this movie, even though Oldman might make you smile a bit. It's the sense of humor and panache that make the movie what it is. Despite the haters who have posted previously, I proudly declare that I think the opera scene is mid-level badass. I also love all the fun bits that are thrown in, from an oriental (Thai?) dude who sells Bruce some soup, to Lt. Stonewall, the movie has a great sense of immersion. The score is also top-rate, given you like the opera theme. Most of the other stuff is assorted electronica and the slightly lovely 'Light of Love' theme. Did I mention the hotness? Oh, okay. Well, it always helps. Overall, I love this movie and give it a 5/5. PS. AZIZ, LIGHT!
