#244. The Fifth Element
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/65/Fifth_element_poster_%281997%29.jpg
Dir: Luc Besson
Genre: Science Fiction
Year: 1997

Apparently I was wrong in my OP... I completely forget this is technically a French film!

Anyway, the Fifth Element is a very silly movie. It's over-the-top, campy, and probably could have benefited from another few years of CGI technology improvement. But god damn does it ooze style and originality. Taken unseriously--as I think the director intended--it really should silence the critics who tended to over-analyze everything in this era (see: Starship Troopers, RoboCop, etc.). Just a genuinely fun watch to this day.
