I own it on DVD. "Anyone else want to negotiate?" may not be the greatest single line in cinema history, but it can't be too far from the top of the list.
I saw this movie, one of my favorite after “Gran Torino” after seeing it only had a 52% on the Tomatometer.
Just shows to go ya.
I thought the same thing re the non-PC side of it. Good guys win all the way. Libtards shown to be Libtards.
If you have a daughter going overseas soon, this should be required viewing.
I liked the movie, but I have a few complaints.
Daughter was what 17? She acted 12. Blondie friend was supposed to be 19 but looked 30.
Liam Neesom needed to lay off the black shoe polish. Surprised it didn’t drip down his head when he was sweating. Sheesh, unrealistic hair.
Sony dropped the ball on their first blu-ray release of The Fifth Element. The uncompressed PCM and Dolby 5.1 surround tracks blew you away, but the video quality was merely on par with regular DVD resolution. This time Sony listened to their fans and remastered the movie so that you get the full 1080p love you deserved the last time. Bought the first blu-ray? No problem. Sony seems to be offering an exchange program. Just contact Sony and they will set up a way you can pass your old blu-ray for the remastered one. Contact info is below:

Lots of freepers like this movie!
Feh, you don't get to pick your MOL.
Luc Bresson makes good flicks
Great performance by Neeson undermined by some G-D awful acting by the other performers.
Yes, Mr. Eastwood is a unique and remarkable talent. Also a very nice guy. He makes his movies very efficiently, with no wasted expenditures, in a pleasant atmosphere. And all of the films are good - some are great. Old school...
After Schindler's List who would underrate him?
Fantastic film - long overdue - something needs to be done about this expanding evil in the world.
Actually 2 evils: Islam and Sex Slavery
Neither MSNBC noer Socialist Workers appreciate this fantasic film.
And the funny thing is that the real slavers would show no gratitude or mercy for their sensitivity.
I just saw this tonight with my kids, and although Liam is a little stiff playing an American, it was great to see morally degenerate French authorities and Muslim scum put to rest by a character that knows how, and when, to kill. Call me a weirdo, but I really like morality plays.
Anyways, it’s one of the best action movies in years.
I agree! Excellent movie!
142 million US
218 million total worldwide
Made another $600,000 this past weekend-What a great run!
I loved this movie. After watching it i told my friend who was thinking of letting her daughter go to France on a school trip to watch the movie with her daughter and to watch “Natalee Holloway” which was on last night and to NOT let her daughter go to France.
My own daughter is 20 and wants to spend a semester studying abroad. No flippin way is that gonna happen.
She ought to look into joining the military ;-)
