I can't stand the Fifth Element. On paper, it should be perfect for me but I just find it really obnoxious.
I wholeheartedly disagree but can understand why. I love it, but I feel like if I watched it now, I wouldn’t, or at least not nearly as much as I remember. It’s pretty over the top, but Chris tucker as ruby rhod is one of my favorite parts. I think it was also the time it came out. There wasn’t a whole lot like it, that I can remember.
Don't overthink about rewatching it. The movie's unique style still stands out today. Ruby Rhod? Still a standout character. The timeless themes? Still hit home. And its unique spot in the sci-fi genre? Still uncontested. This isn't just some '90s relic, it's a movie that's stood the test of time. Give it another go, you might find it's held up better than you think.
lmao, I just recently realised I've seen that movie so many times and have no idea what it's about.
