The Fifth Element	comment	The Fifth Element is a 1997 English-language French Science Fiction Film produced by Gaumont. The brainchild of producer, director and screenwriter Luc Besson, it stars Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Milla Jovovich, Chris Tucker and Ian Holm. The soundtrack was composed by Besson's longtime collaborator, Ã‰ric Serra. It was released by Sony Pictures Releasing under Columbia Pictures in North America, while in France it was released by Disney under Gaumont Buena Vista International.The movie opens in 1914, in an Egyptian temple, where an archaeologist, assisted by a reporter, discovers hieroglyphs that report about a Great Evil that is unleashed and tries to destroy all life every five millennia, and the weapons to defeat it: four stones representing water, fire, air and earth and a "perfect being" representing a fifth element sealed in a sarcophagus. A priest on site seems incredibly disturbed that the discovery is being made, going so far as to (unsuccessfully) poison the archaeologist to prevent the discovery.Just as the discovery is made, the Sufficiently Advanced Aliens who made the temple in the first place (and whom the priest, and all those who have come before him, have secretly served) arrive in a giant spaceship and take away the stones and the sarcophagus, explaining that they are unsafe because of the imminent war on Earth. The aliens also order the priest to continue to take care of the temple and to pass on his knowledge, as it was passed on to him, to prepare for the Great Evil's incoming. The priest points out that they're leaving Earth defenseless, and the aliens reply that when the Great Evil returns, so shall they. Cut to...2263, when the Great Evil is starting to form itself. On their way to deliver the five elements back, the aliens are shot down by a ship of another race of proud warrior aliens, who steal the box which would contain the stones. The remains of the "fifth element" are found and Earth scientists reconstruct it, generating an orange-haired Mysterious Waif named LeeloominaÃ¯ Lekatariba Lamina-TchaÃ¯ Ekbat De Sebat, or "Leeloo" for short, who breaks out of the lab and dives into a taxi driven by ex-soldier Korben Dallas. With the Great Evil getting closer, Korben has to help Leeloo save the planet.

The Fifth Element / int_10134c97	comment	Artistic License â€“ Gun Safety: Korben Dallas uses this trope to his advantage. Korben is held at gunpoint by a thug; he then goes off saying the guy has the safety on and convinces him to turn it off. Turns out that Korben was lying and he just made the thug "turn off" the gun. Korben is quick to subdue the thug, take his gun and compliment his hat. Later, Korben hands a loaded pistol with the safety off to Ruby Rhod, who clearly is terrified of it, and tells him to cover a prisoner. Ruby almost immediately kills said prisoner with an accidental discharge.

When the film was released, the film turns out to be nothing but another humorous action flick in a similar way to films Die Hard (in which Bruce Willis also starred) and of course Demolition Man, but with a bit of violence toned-down.

It makes a lot more sense when you realize that the script was literally written by Luc Besson when he was twelve years old, with exactly the priorities in mind which that would imply.

When Leeloo escapes, the police seem to arbitrarily take over and no one informs them of who or what Leeloo is. They even lose sight of this halfway through and just start shooting at the car she's in because they've deemed the occupant a car thief. "We made this chick in a lab, she's kinda important, retrieve her alive and unharmed" would have been a simple enough order to give. The government, Dallas, and the Priesthood are all on exactly the same side with the same honorable goal of saving the world for the same reason — but spend half the movie working against each other for the sake of Rule of Drama and Rule of Funny. One would assume that this weapon and evil etc. would have been explained to the government of Earth once it reached an interstellar technological level and became aware of the existence of the Mondoshawan race (assumed because when asking for entry into our space, they are permitted in without a single "who/what?"), and not when it is imminent.

Another struggles to even keep the shape-shift under control, visibly grimacing while his eyes bulge and forehead shifts between human and Mangalore, and when he speaks he cannot disguise his voice. Later a Mangalore impersonates a human voice and claims to be room service, but doesn't even attempt to hide their appearance. The only Mangalore that manages to nail both appearance and voice is the woman at the airport, and even she drops back to her Mangalore voice the moment she's out of earshot.

They come within feet of one another on an elevator landing and Zorg just keeps on walking because, again, he doesn't even know Korben exists. Korben doesn't know Zorg is behind the Mangalores' activities or that he's working for Mr. Shadow. For that matter, Korben knows nothing of Mr. Shadow — only that it's an encroaching threat. Also, Zorg has no idea that Korben stopped the Mangalores on the cruise ship or that he's helping Leeloo. Zorg doesn't even know who Leeloo is when he tries to kill her, not even knowing that if he had succeeded, he would have no need for the stones. Only Cornelius has met Zorg and then only briefly on screen. The most direct harm that Zorg ever does to Korben in the film is to fire him from Zorg Industries... via a form letter... that Zorg didn't even write himself... or send himself. In the novelization, they do run into each other, and Korben proceeds to beat the shit out of him for "hurting his wife" after Zorg finds out he ran out of bullets (all 3,000 of them).

The Fifth Element / int_27c09b00	comment	Camp Straight: Ruby Rhod and his entourage play every camp stereotype to the hilt, even though they're not gay. Just because Ruby owns a collection of lycra catsuits doesn't mean he isn't a ladies' man. As evidenced by his tryst with a flight attendant during the takeoff of the ship to Fhloston Paradise. According to the DVD Commentary, Ruby (originally named "Loc") is a combination of Prince and Lenny Kravitz. Ruby even oddly uses the female pronoun when referring to himself on radio, calling himself Miss Ruby Rhod. Also applies to Baby Ray, the deaf "star of stage and screen", who is surrounded by a gaggle of admiring ladies when we first meet him. If anything, it seems like this is the fashion of the future and Korben is an aberration for dressing in a masculine way. It could be a class thing, as they're both wealthy celebrities, and Korben is very much working class. Zorg's outrageous "space Hitler meets Frank-N-Furter" fashion supports this hypothesis.

The Federation rigs a contest to get Korben Dallas to the hotel. As they're briefing him on this, Vito and Leeloo arrive to try and take Korben's tickets. Korben hides the military folks from Vito and Leeloo, then has to hide Vito and Leeloo from the cops, since Zorg's man has called in a tip to get Korben Dallas arrested so he can take Korben's place and go to Fhloston to get the Stones. Fortunately, Vito had moved Korben's nameplate to a different door, so that guy gets arrested instead. Then the Mangalores ambush the police, capture "Korben Dallas" and plan to have one of them shapeshift into him and get to Fhloston to get the Stones to get revenge on Zorg. This pileup isn't fully resolved until Korben's plane to Fhloston is in the air.

Thus, David can still respond to his given name and not look out of place. In a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, the shape-changing Mangalore boss tries to use the face of Dallas's neighbor, who had been picked up by the police when they mistook him for Dallas; it doesn't end well for him (we can also thank Cornelius for that, as he was the one who switched the door tags before the police came to arrest Dallas).

The Fifth Element / int_a1a1491e	comment	Homage: Much of the futuristic New York and the character of Korben Dallas pay homage to the "Harry Canyon" story from Heavy Metal. To the point Luc Besson hired MÃ©tal Hurlant artists as designers. Korben's character also heavily evokes other Bruce Willis action films (see "Die Hard" on an X above). Mr. Shadow is basically a beefed-up, Evil Sounds Deep version of the Loc-Nar. The French comic series ValÃ©rian by Jean-Claude MÃ©ziÃ¨res and Pierre Christin features a near-identical flying taxi in the album Circles of Power, though with a driver whose personality has little in common with Korben's. Much of the costume inspirations also come from this comic. MÃ©ziÃ¨res was one of the film's Production Designers. (The other was Jean Giraud, a.k.a. MÅ“bius). Luc Besson would later create a more direct adaptation in 2017.

The Mondoshawans distrusted mankind and kept the elemental stones necessary to stop the Evil out of their reach. The government is trying to contain Mr. Shadow in any way they can, but they ignore the Mondoshawan high priest's advice. Leeloo, who is also the weapon created to stop Evil becomes a fugitive after being revived by the government, escaping their facility, crashing into Dallas' cab, which also makes him pursued as an accomplice. The priests themselves also distrust Dallas, thinking he is a nobody who got dragged into a mess he can't possibly understand, despite him being a former soldier who was reactivated to find the stones by his superiors from The Federation.

And that's ignoring the fact that at the distance stated, the remains of Shadow would have actually already been partially inside Earth's atmosphere!

The Federation rigs a contest to get Korben Dallas to the hotel. As they're briefing him on this, Vito and Leeloo arrive to try and take Korben's tickets. Korben hides the military folks from Vito and Leeloo, then has to hide Vito and Leeloo from the cops, since Zorg's man has called in a tip to get Korben Dallas arrested so he can take Korben's place and go to Fhloston to get the Stones. Fortunately, Vito had moved Korben's nameplate to a different door, so that guy gets arrested instead. Then the Mangalores ambush the police, capture "Korben Dallas" and plan to have one of them shapeshift into him and get to Fhloston to get the Stones to get revenge on Zorg. This pileup isn't fully resolved until Korben's plane to Fhloston is in the air. Then there's the pileup onboard the Fhloston Paradise. Korben and Leeloo wait for after the Diva's performance to get the stones. The Mangalores, having already infiltrated the ship, raid the Diva's suite looking for the stones. They're met by Leeloo, who kicks their asses. This prompts Aknot to initiate a takeover of the ship. During this, Zorg comes on board, finds Leeloo holding what he thinks are the stones, shoots at her, and leaves, planting a bomb as he departs, only to find the case didn't have the stones. Korben recovers the stones from the Diva herself, then fights and defeats the Mangalores. At that point, he finds Zorg's bomb, prompting an evacuation of the cruise ship. Zorg returns to deactivate his bomb and find the stones for real this time, but is then killed by another planted by a surviving Mangalore.

The Fifth Element / int_f314f8c4	comment	Traveling at the Speed of Plot: The movie as a whole doesn't pay a lot of attention to the logical progression of time. When the 23nd century sequences begin, it's said that the "Evil" will arrive in only 48 hours, yet far more than 24 hours worth of activities take place (not the least of which is the recovery of Leeloo's remains) before Korben Dallas is assigned to go to Fhloston Paradise several hours after it is mentioned that the Diva will be performing "in four hours". Yet Fhloston is located in another solar system, so to travel there requires the passengers to be put to sleep for an unknown length of time, and it's later indicated that the actual concert takes place about a day after the flight. Oh, and we also have to factor in the flight back to Egypt and getting to the chamber. Did I mention all of this is supposed to have taken place in less than 48 hours?

The Fifth Element / int_fc225bec	type	Artistic License – Physics
The Fifth Element / int_fc225bec	comment	Artistic License â€“ Physics: The battleship captain says that the Dark Planet is giving conflicting temperature readings varying from one million degrees to -5000. There is no temperature scale that goes to -5000, as absolute zero (or 0 Kelvin) is only -273 Celsius (-460 Fahrenheit). Of course, this could simply be a result of the sensors being jammed, as was mentioned just prior. During the climax, the Dark Planet is described as having been stopped 62 miles from impact. Previously, the Planet was described as being 1200 miles in diameter. This means an object about half the size of Earth's moon is parked in an orbit no more than 62 miles above Earth's surface. That's closer than the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite. Not only would such an orbit be untenable, but an object that size orbiting that close to Earth would wreak utter havoc on the planet's surface due to tidal forces. In fact that's so close the limb of the Dark Planet would be inside Earth's atmosphere.

The Fifth Element / int_fd76df83	type	Artistic License â€“ Economics
The Fifth Element / int_fd76df83	comment	Artistic License â€“ Economics: Zorg espouses the "Destruction Equals Employment" mentality, and demonstrates it by destroying a glass and explaining how the machines that clean the glass shards away employ so many people manufacturing them. However, Zorg doesn't mention that only companies like his, which profits off of war, stand to benefit, rather than society as a whole. It's a version of the Parable of the Broken Window, which is explained in more detail at The Other Wiki.short versionDestroying something only benefits those companies that can replace that destruction and nothing else. The theory is that a windowmaker hiring someone to go around breaking windows may benefit the windowmaker (in the short term), but does nothing for society as a whole, as money spent replacing windows is money that cannot be spent elsewhere, and is spent simply on restoring the status quo. Also, disasters are not profitable, as money is spent restoring a status quo that could have been spent on improvements elsewhere absent the disaster in question. War is also a useless expense, as money is spent on bullets that fire and bombs that destroy buildings and machines that money has been spent to create. Money spent on war and the military and the industries that support them are by definition a necessary sunk cost, as a state-sponsored military cannot generate profit or become self-sustaining (relying on continuous infusions of taxpayer money to function) and, at its most basic level, their function is to blow shit up and kill people, neither of which have an inherent economic benefit. This doesn't mean war cannot in the long term create conditions where future economic expansion can flourish, but that is outside the scope of this theory.

The last words by the Mangalores right before Zorg is blown up is that he's doing it for their honor.
