25 Years Later, The Fifth Element Is Still An Enigmatic Sci-Fi Classic
The genres of Science Fiction and Fantasy have passed some fairly impressive anniversaries recently, being 20 years since the first Harry Potter and first Lord of the Rings hit cinemas, in equal parts making audiences around the world feel both wistfully nostalgic, but also very old. The films stand up even today, but what a difference 5 years make, shown through the datedly scantily clad Milla Jovovich and beautifully 90’s envisioned depiction of the future present in Luc Besson’sThe Fifth Element. It is arguably one of the most divided sci-fi films of all time, being simultaneously one of the best and worst iterations into this vast genre.
