If he had the key. Why couldn't he just open the crypt again~~~
Oh yesses
Written in the 50s by some French artists, probably the best movie I’ve ever seen, Thank you for sharing your videos
You should watch Valerian. There are connections to the two films.

I'm so happy there was no sequel to water down this extraordinary masterpiece.
Just wait for the remake when lelu is played by Cardi B
@@stevenscott6658 😭nooo oh gods no
@@stevenscott6658 and complaining about white privilege and bruce Willis switched out with the average Quota-black

so true, every sequel of a movie destroys the extraordinary but makes alot of $
"Priest, I'm too slow to get through the door before it closes. Here, take the key and open it again so I can get out. Priest? Priest, are you there?"
Lol I really wish we could of seen what happened to him.
I think the door only opens during the alignment of the three planets.
@@nickrykert2572 they'd literally just opened it
I think the guy got out and boarded the space ship before it took off.
@@nickrykert2572 no, the ultimate evil is released at the alignment. Seems more likely to me that gunfire set off some kind of security system and that it wouldn't reopen for some time even with the key. After all you don't want whoever just killed your guy to get in to your sacred chamber
I like how the Mondoshawans look and sound kind of intimidating, but are actually pretty chill dudes and are very helpful.
unless you get in their way
Professor: A-a-are you German?
Mondoshawan: *shakes head*
@@BruceAlariei know a lot of people watched this film but how many people realized a priest tried to poison some people in this film???
@@derekstarobanot to poison. Chromophorm.
"Time not important. Only life important." -- one of the most profound things I've ever heard, and it came from Bruce Willis's Fifth Element. Epic!
8:52 good line.
Time is a human concept to understand the Universe. But the Universe does not need time to exist.
Made entirely irrelevant after they murdered an innocent man lol
If it was so important. Then just open the crypt again. The oldman had the bloody key in his hand
They walk so slowly. How can they be the guardians when they walk like that.
I went to the movie theater as a teen, hadn't watched a trailer or even had the slightest hint of what was it about or who was in it. You can imagine how I was blown away. It was epic, fun, exciting, and didn't take itself too seriously. Wow one of the best experiences at the cinema.
ya weird same here, i guess nothing was out at the time
Same
Omg the same it was on home cinema and the sound system was the latest at that time
I remember how mindblowing it was i was speechless
Yes me too, completely mindblown
Indeed. Not a great movie in the least. However good slapstick and special effects.
A most underrated movie.... one of the best Sci Fi movies ever made.
I remember when it was released. It was not so underrated.
underrated? it was a massive hit when it was released, and milla jovovich reach the fame
Massively popular in theaters and it has had a strong cult following ever since.
If this is "underrated" then what the hell is over rated?
Maybe in US, the Europe lived it!
Um, no. If you were to make a top ten list of the top ten movies that always appear on top ten lists, this would be on it hands down. This movie is not underrated, rather widely agreed upon being one of the best science fiction films ever made
This whole intro is as fresh and original as the day it came out. Still pining for a full story of the Mondoshawans, the aliens we wish were really looking after us all.
😂
there are no aliens you live in a simulation
WE ARE AND HAVE BEEN WITHIN ALLINADAYSJOBS.
And you should keep pining. If we've learned anything, it's that prequels that seek to satisfy our curiosity and longing for more always let us down. Even if they're well done, they remove the tantalizing mystery. There's a reason for the old showbiz saying, "always leave 'em wanting more."
I just watched this movie with my 12 year old son and had that same feeling... there was so much world-building in this movie, it's a shame that we only got the one movie.
I absolutely love the design of the Mondoshawans. They're somewhat grotesque and even goofy, but it makes them all the more imposing and indecipherable. Their costumes are detailed, but made of such simple shapes and color that it instantly makes them memorable. They're seen in full light, but since we have no idea what they look like under the armor (if there even *is* something under it), they remain mysterious. It's a perfect look for a race of mystical sentinels that dedicate their existence to protecting the universe.
The water dripping onto the gangway suggests they may be aquatic.
Agreed. Great design, even their clumsy movements. Powerful and mysterious, making you crave for more.
thats what i thought@@Thornbloom
It was so smart to never even give a call back to what they looked like under the armor. They didn’t, did they?
They even communicate in English so we can understand them!
The Mondoshawans, like everything else in this film looked absolutely amazing. Absolute blast of of a movie with every actor going way over the top with their performances...which worked a charm in this enviroment.
Gold standard sci-fi, gold standard film.
Over the years I grew irritated by Mila Jovovich as Leeloo, she is not a good actress.
I love it how the children mimic the lumbering movement of the Mondoshawans at 3:36, like they saw the Mondoshawans before.
Perhaps they had; or they had tales of beings from the stars passed down in oral tradition.
Wow I never caught that, good eye!
It just occurred to me that they Mondoshawans were probably aquatic. Their suits were filled with water, which is why their movements were so slow and lumbering. That's why there was water raining down from the ceiling of their spaceship, they had just pumped all the water out of the "air lock" (water lock?) before opening the outer door.
@@HawkGTboywow, that's genuinely a good thought!
@@HawkGTboyI think you’re right. :)
Whenever a room is too dark I sometimes yell "light Aziz!". And then my wife looks at me like I'm an idiot.
My wife and I both say this sometimes, when it gets dark enough to turn a light on. :)💡
She's probably giving you that look because you're saying it backwards, it's "Aziz light!"
Perfect comand to apply to a smart lamp!
You're an absolute maniac. Love it.
@@circomkt now you’ve given me ideas
The costume designer was in the opening credits. Allways the sign of a good movie.
Gualtier did some amazing stuff.
"AZIZ! LIGHT!" *bright as frak landing lights switch on*
"that's much better, thank you Aziz"
I love how Billy has a tally chart.
AZIZ LIGHT!:
-IIII- -IIII- I
The musical score in this movie is one of the more amazing in film. It taught me to appreciate something I never took notice of in movies with the possible exception of the Star Wars movies. Unfortunately now I notice how most studios just crank up the volume, looking at you Disney, rather than have a good decent score.
and don't forget the use of the horn sound in absolutely everything.
It is an intricate balance; film scores. Éric Serra is a special gift.
@@youbian Eric Serra went full genius on this one.
And so many sound tracks today are nothing but rock or hip hop audio clips. Few great composers left...
That was the score for Blade Runner for me. An absolute masterpiece of music.
One of the best opening scenes to set up a film that I’ve seen, honestly can’t think of any way this could have been improved.
Loved this movie when I was a teen, and still do, it has aged better than other 90's SciFi's, the CGI and practical effects/costumes were second to none and still look great today, Gary Oldman pulled off the bad guy role really well, Milla Jovovich mmmm and a perfect "Die Hard" style performance from Bruce Willis as always oh and Chris Tucker, such a funny performance, I never get tired of watching this movie! If you haven't seen it, stream it tonight!
I've lost count how many times I've seen Fifth Element.
"You're a monster, Zorg!"
"I know."
"are you German?" Hilarious esp since the alien seems to understand what that means.
That is why they are there. "war is coming, Stones not safe on Earth."
We're from... France, yes, france
@@jamesdriscoll_tmp1515 Ha just like the Coneheads!
@@ramaya007 i actually thought that! they were referring to ww2 am i right?
@@SolBadGuy06 WW1, beginning times it as Egypt 1914.
In my childhood (was 16 when it came out) was my life goal to watch this movie on a home theatre setup that i personally find good, and select together piece by piece. After that long wait, I've managed to have it. Watched it yesterday. In my own house, (no debts) on a 40" 4k Ambilight tv on a yamaha hdmi amplifier with a 5.1 TAGA setup. The feeling was priceless.
=)
I'm glad you were able to fulfill your childhood dream.
I loved this movie as a kid, just one of the pieces of media that have solidified my love of science fiction.
I think this is the only movie I'd watch over and over and over... It's SUPERGREEN!
Probably one of the most underrated science fiction films of all times,such an original concept.
love the intercultural,intergalactic soundtrack!
That beat drop. 9:00 I remember this part sounded incredible in the theater. "You can count on meee!" (AWWW-AWWWWWW!)
I love 90's space magic!
3:55 me too.
This and Independence Day were my favorite childhood movies.
Me too.
Me too!!
Independence Day has nothing on this film. 😉
Rented this movie at the local library when i had no internet at home. (Late 2020 - early 2021)
First time watching it and after that i became a fan of Bruce Willis.
Way too late but better than never
I was 12 when I first saw this in the cinema, and to say it blew my mind would be a complete understatement.
One of the great scenes in sci fi movie history, is when the Mondoshawans arrive with their warning, and to retrieve the 5th Element.
These are simply awe inspiring ET’s.
Damn, I remember these guys. Dunno why I loved them so much when I was younger. Something about their fat gold robot bodies was cool
they look like scarab beetles
One of my favorite scenes in one of my favorite films. The Mondoshawan should have still been in the temple when they returned to it 300 years later. Besson dropped the ball on that one.
the priest would have obviously used the key to reopen the door and remove the evidence of the body since its hand is sticking out. It wasn't a mistake.
@@xxmurtagh7xx Good point. As many times as i have seen this I had not considered that. Still, it would have been very cool if they found the old rusted husk of him inside when they returned.
@@xxmurtagh7xx why couldn't he open it from the inside with the key? and why would getting his hand smashed kill him?
I wonder if they were distantly controlled robots rather than living beings, hence aliens couldn't care less about losing one.
@@oldcat1790 totally possible, but it seems that they are individual beings on a mission to preserve life. To me it seems that they is a "person" inside those suits, hence the scene and death being so dramatic. Also, Leelu (or however its spelled), is one of their kind. but enhanced and altered to survive earth atmosphere.
One of the best-underrated sci-fi movies I ever saw! It's out of this world!
who makes this rating? I don't really care
This is definitely widely agreed to be one of the best science fiction films ever made. It's not underrated at all
@@beezzarro m
kkl
@@beezzarro That's what happens when people ignore the meaning of words. That movie was super popular, never underrated. meh
I wish people would just stop using underrated and overrated. Just stop already. Stop it.
One of the best beginnings in film history!
An absolute masterpiece.
One of the coolest opening sequences in any movie.
Did the priest and those that followed him, remove the Mondoshawan carcass that was buried in the room?
Because when Leeloo and gang arrived 300 years later, the trapped Mondo wasn't there anymore.
Luc Besson makes some pretty cool movies! The Fifth Element is my favorite!
5:45 me too.
His la Femme nikkita is amazing too
I like Leon: the professional too
Favorite movie of all time. Every scene and literally every is epic. SO sad they dont make movies this good now days
Luc Besson French producer as its finest. He did other good movies but too bad he made bankrupt. We are going to see any more movies from him. If you like Mila Jovovic, have a look at Joan of Arc. She plays incredibly well.
The Mondoshawans...better known by their colloquial name throughout the civilized sectors of the galaxy,..as the Armored Space Ducks. :D
They more resemble vultures in Egyptian-looking armor to me.
Mumbling, grunting space cows.
Howard the Duck’s species
but at least they're not German! ;)
Or spatial's penguin's
One of the best movie openings of all time!
Literally seen the 5th element like 5 thousand times
That’s awesome. Because, I watched Star Wars more than 💯 times.
that would be over 14 months of your life
I would like to see a movie about this Priest and the young archeologist,
would be interesting to see what happened after the Mondoshowans left,
to see their adventures, passing on the key and the knowledge.
Same and what happened to the alien that got left in the temple because he wasn’t there when leeloo arrived
@@MikiGo88
Wooo...
The Alien body could be the central plot of the story.
The Priest, along with Aziz and friends hide the body.
The Young archeologist wakes up in the monastery of the Priest and vaguely remembers what happened, but is sure of the Alien.
The Young archeologist looks for the priest but he is not in the monastery, to his surprise he could only find the Professor lounging with some tea, so the Young archeologist rushes out of the monastery to return to the site along with his associates (one of these associates is a servant of "the Evil".)
Returning to the site, they find nothing, no trace of the alien presence, they sweep the place for any clue, the Young archeologist argues that he swears by what he say and that he is not crazy.
All the while "the Evil" servant is looking at the wall that we know to be the Door,
"the Evil" servant touches the wall, feeling it, probing it.
The Priest returns, greets the Young Archeologist, and asks what is he doing back here, that he should rest for he has suffered from heat exhaustion and a mild concussion, the Priest apologizes to the associates that this is all a misunderstanding.
The Young archeologist pleads with the Priest: he says: Father, you were here, you say it too, you've got to tell them.
And so the associates start leaving, "the evil" servant is the last to leave.
Apologies for the long reply.
I get carried away with these things.
Or a prequel on the last fifth element before leeloo
Unfortunately, Luke Perry died recently, but I still like the idea.
it they make it now they would became lovers lol
mobieus design is mesmerizing
Time not important. Only life important. Classic.
2021.I was 12 after this movie came in theatres in 97. After independence day Great openning scene in egypt directed by luc besson with milla jovovich and bruce willis great great i was born under number 5 in 1985. Really 💛💛💛💛💛
"AZIZ, LIGHT!!!"
Still quoting this 'till this day🤓
Bada Boom
this film never get boring, I watch it multiple time.
Classic Sci-Fi lines, in cinema history.
“Time, not important. Only life important.”
A few people here have insightfully said, it’s possible their race is aquatic, hence the environmental suits of armor, the sounds of respiration, and the water draining from the platform doors. Brilliant.
Luc Besson has never changed his style. I was 10 years old at the cinema seeing this movie back then, the combo Besson x Sierra was the best back then, sound and picture. Defo underrated for FX and Sound
I love the 5th element and Valerian connection. Full of love
Look, I didn't know it was a connection with Valeria, me too, I love the 5 elements.
which connection?
@@der-Troet There is no connection, is just that Luc Besson is a fan of the the old French Valerian comics, and so there is influence in this film ...
One of the most arresting, enticingly mystical opening scenes ever. The worldbuilding in this film is absolutely phenomenal. I'm not too keen on Luc Besson as a person, but he - and of course his set designers, builders, tailors, sculptors, musicians - created a potent and original work of art with "The Fifth Element".
One of the most spectacular sci-fi movies of all times,so underrated
It's not underrated at all. It's a well known gold classic tier of sci fi.
My all time favorite movie ever, I’ve seen it at least 2 dozen times
Movie name please
I have it on video and dvd
This was a great time when this movie came out. Boy, have the times changed!
Absolutely fantastic movie, start to finish action packed awesomeness
I absolutely love the music Cue when the 5th element is on screen. So alien and haunting but beautiful.
Amen
I can start watching Fifth Element at ANY point and keep watching. Never gets old. Can't get enough. Perfect!
My opinion is the movie has a basic yet enjoyable premise. The vague plot gives it a lot of advantage in accomplishing some of the ridiculous and hilarious scenes. Even if the movie's story is vague, it still lends itself to interesting and thought-provoking themes. These vague themes give you a greater meaning behind the film while including plenty of hilarious scenes. Now that I think about it, I think that's what I like about Star Wars. It has a lot of vague themes and includes you in a world in such a candid manner, just as The Fifth Element does. You don't need to understand the details to understand the film.
One of my Top 10 that I watch once a year. "Multipass"
One of my favorite movies!
Luc Bessin and the French style animation and imagery have always been the best.
Great movie! I love it! The soundtrack is amazing.
What I want to know is where is the body of that thing? if that vault was sealed for 300 years when they open it up later shouldn't that thing still be in there?
It should! But, then, again, here we go with the conspiracy theories; in 300 years, it's not time enough for human technology advance so much as it is shown in the story, if the same was passed in our reality, our dimension, as we know it. So, that leads to us to think that this story is passed in a parallel universe, with immense points in common with ours and the reality we live in, in this line of space-time. Maybe in that parallel dimension/Earth they did found the body of the alien, and because of that, technology had a tremendous evolution jump, to the point that humanity could already travel to another planets, have aerial citys, reconstruct living beings from dna samples, etc. That part is a very interesting exercise of creativity; in not shown us what happened to the alien body, if it was found or not, and if it was found, what could had happened, that leaves a lot to our imagination to think about.
But, in time- that was a long time curiosity i always had about, too! I always asked myself what happened to that lost alien!
The priest opened him since they key was outside
Of course they let him ride their spaceship with them
He did not die
It's just his hand that gets smashed
one of my favourite films. up there with Bladerunner, shawshank, battle britain etc etc
Me too.
Eric Serra's soundtrack to this movie is still legendary 😮
One of my favorite movies.
Great movie! Totally underrated.
8:52 I don’t think this is underrated.
The Mondoshawans were such cool and great blokes!!
Best scene of the whole movie 👌
just one word to describe this scene: EPIC! When movies begin with such grand events involving distant worlds and celestial beings, it gives goosebumps. The scene gives Spielberg and George Lucas vibes.
For me (and I mean for me, I could be wrong) the message is love is the ultimate power. The blue opera lady alien thing tells Willis she needs his love and when he tells milla he loves her she lights up and destroys the evil . Love is the only power that can't be forced.
I don't think it is love, I think it is purpose. She needed a purpose to care and it just happened to be love for Dallas.
@@rh906 could be. Like I said it's my view
Purpose. Love. That's meaning in Life. I dint think its the soul domain of inly humans on Earth. Other Earthlings, too.
My number one Favourite film for several reasons. I've watched this many times and I'm still not done!
Fifth element will be my favorite for a long time. It was years ahead in terms of futuristic appeal, imagining power and the art. And of course my favorite Bruce Willis
Aziz....LIGHT!!
They tried to tie this universe in with Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - the Mondoshawans where supposed to appear in the opening sequence and there does appear to be an alien race that resembles them show up. I guess that is the closest to a sequel as we will get. It's a pity as I believe there was a lot more to explore.
i really hoped valerian would tie up those two movies together. Valerian was also very fun movie to watch, but it could be so much more actually. IT could be super epic fifth element sequel-
@@divanosoba9658 unfortunately the 'Avatar' like sequences really put me off the Valerian film (despite it being good) -- i really hated ridley scotts Avatar movie
Luc Besson openings are just a thing of amazement.
Greatest Movie EVER !!!!!!
Hasis should have gotten a Grammy, an Emmy and other stuff too. Best acting in the movie.
I often see “oh this is my favourite movie” on various threads, even for the most mediocre film.
This one is up there near the top for me.
Stunning costumes, far fetched, beautiful actors and sheer entertainment from start to finish.
Good movie, except for Mila Jovovich, the more I watch the movie, the more I see how she ruins Leeloo
nah. just glad arsenio hall didnt get the role of the roddy rodd
showman@@criztu
Brilliant movie for its age !
"Time not important, only life important"
8:52-8:54 🔑
love the scene!
Good old movies of pre-avenges era.
"AZIZ LIGHT!" A line I still yell when its unnecessarily dark in a room.
It was a great movie !
I love this movie, my top five for sure. Luke Perry was so beautiful. R.I.P.
Anyone else also felt compelled to see The Fifth Element five times in the theater when it came out as I did ?
Only 3. Mostly because Milla reminded me of an old girlfriend.
Epic epic movie. Still remember every bit of it. Must have seen it like 70+ times... (no exaggeration).
I would turn off all the lights in the house, and put the movie from a Cassete I had... and enjoyed the cinematic experience so much.
LOVE THE MOVIE!
Everyday I pray for this to happen.
A lot of reviewers hated it - whilst not perfect overall it was completely awesome
The noisy fighting and yelling in the last part was it's only weakness.
@@sclogse1 yeah that was the weakest part.
This is an amazing sci fi movie, both in design and vfx. So underrated
The most epic scene in any movie ever.
My Favorite scene in the whole movie!!!!!!!!!!!
Good movie,I have it on DVD, and has Bruce Willis in it
Absolutely amazing 😻
Great movie, Bruce Willis best
This is a great moment in movie history, make no mistake.
Far be it from mankind.... to imagine that higher intelligence, could be a part of his upbringing.
The father has the key. So he can help the Mondoshawan to go out :)
Самый афигенный фантастический фильм. И пофигу на некоторые ляпы. Фильм очень шикарный.
Absolute Masterpiece.
They really scared me when I saw this as a kid. Looking at it now they are kinda super goofy xD
They are so cute
5:46-8:52 those mondoshawan are like penguins. 🐧 also, this is my favorite French science 🧬 fiction movies from luc besson.
