Luc Besson attempts to get high-concept sci-fi on us, but it falls flat on its face.

ScoJo is great in the opening but as she ascends to godlike status all conflict in the movie drops away.

even when she's dissolving on the airplane, a few seconds later - nope, fine, let's roll.

there were several times when i thought, "ok, here comes the Fifth Element thing where it inverts tropes." and then i remembered Fifth Element was not all that inventive it was just funny and cool enough to distract you from its flaws.

i wanted to like this. i wanted it so hard. but alas.

2/5
