I just watched The Fifth Element with my dad. It was fun. The inclusion of Greek elements feels a bit random since it’s only relevant for the last ten minutes or so yet they make it the title of the film. Ruby Rhod was a touch annoying, but I get what they were going for and respect it. He fills a role similar to Willie Scott in Temple of Doom, who I happen to be a big fan of. It just doesn’t quite land here. His voice is kinda annoying but at the same time it’s hard to fault when it’s the perfect complement for his bizarre grandiosity. The needless sexualization of Leeloo was actually not nearly as bad as I had feared it would be, being mostly contained to the skimpy outfit they gave her in her first few scenes. I loved Ian Holm as the priest. Gary Oldman’s villain Zorg was lots of fun too. Overall, it was a fun film and I recommend it for anyone looking for a good time and isn’t too prude about sexual content.
