I know it's even more cheesy today than when first released... but this film is so fun, an all-around treat. First of all, this and Pulp Fiction are Willis' best roles (forget Die Hard!). Next, the cinematography and effects are a visual treat, followed by Gautier's excellent wardrobe, set design and color choices. The plot is one of the few stand-alone sci-fi flicks that successfully encapsulates its unique myth and futuristic predictions - it doesn't need a sequel. Finally, the director and cast are what pushes this gem over the top. Besson keeps an excellent fast pace, directing his former beau Jovovich in the role she was born to play. Oldman is always the perfect antagonist, and this role seems like eating sweets for him. Willis' cool detachment makes the whole impossibleness seem almost real. But it is the over-the-top performance of Chris Tucker as the fabulous Ruby Rhod that makes this movie "green, baby, it's green." Because the film is such a visual treat, this especialy is a Blu-ray film worth adding to a collection.Read full review

I watched the 5th Element and I found it to be a very well done movie. It is a fun movie to watch from beginning to end. I really enjoyed all the actions scenes in the movie and I find the Bruce Willis was perfect for the movie. The 5th Element is like a roller-coaster, it's a fun ride from start to finish. The storyline of the movie is also well done as well as the plot of the movie. Chris Tucker does a good job in the movie as DJ Ruby Rhod. Gary Oldman is excellent as Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg, who is a nasty villain. Milla Jovovich is also good in the movie as Leeloo. Beautiful picture and sound in Blu-Ray..cult classic.
Blu-ray is encoded in High Definition 1080p format. The movie its sharpness, and eye-popping colors are just stunning. Black levels are inky with excellent grey shadow detail, and contrasts are deep. The movie itself is great and if you are already a fan of the DVD the Blu Ray is what you want. One problem with Blu Ray is that with the HD/Blu Ray debate some traditional stores are not stocking them until there is a clear winner. Not to worry, the store below has hundreds of Blu Ray DVDs broken down by genre: http://stores.ebay.com/Dvdmagnet_Dvds-and-Movies_Blu-ray
If you enjoy this movie on DVD, you will love it on blu-ray! Crystal clear picture quality and superior surround sound!
