Instead we got a slanderous and smer-filled hatchet job of a film with a shrieking and indescribably shrill Jovovich stinking up the joint with one of the worst performances of recent years… after that, Besson just lost me…

Depending on your point of view on interrupting film. Which might make you re-think your interruption of the 'The Fifth Element'.

Some of his movies are really unforgettable (Nikita, Leon & The Lady for me, love'em!) To be honest, I do find the fifth element's plot a little "childish" but I love that movie too, it's so freaking funny ! Oldman & Jovovich both give a great performance and the visuals are really nice & originals.
