Top Critics Reviews

There's no doubt about it, when it comes to saving the world, Bruce Willis is your man. He does it with smarts and style, humor and courage.

The Fifth Element has to be the most creative visualization since Tim Burton's first Batman in 1989. On top of that, it's a whole lot of fun.

rotten:
Besson's futuristic fable is flawed by a messy narrative which strains to incorporate far too many grotesque and eccentric characters.

rotten:
A hodgepodge of elements that don't comfortably coalesce.

rotten:
In this movie and many like it, the only elements that count are impact, impact, impact and impact. The fifth element is gibberish.
