For fans of: Blade Runner

While I was searching through Sci-Fi videos this weekend via Netflix I came across something during my search that intrigued me enough to order it, wait two days and spend some time making popcorn beforehand.

I am of course talking about The Fifth Element, a great (now classic) Sci-Fi movie with actor Bruce Willis and Milla Jovovich. This movie makes surprisingly good use of CG for the time it was made (1997). The plot is essentially that the five elements that protect the world are missing and they must be found and returned to a shrine in Egypt within 48 hours of the emergence of a darkness that will soon consume all.

If you have a coulple of bucks and a couple of hours, go see this movie. Even if you don’t like Sci-fi I think you’ll find it entertaining.
