The Fifth Element

There are some good and bad bits here but much more good than bad. I like the cityscape at the beginning with skyscrapers interwoven by lines of aerial traffic. It has a tiny Chinese-style junk which serves food direct to your window (in the giant tower where you and everyone else lives.) Then there are the guardian aliens inside their globular metal environment suits (or is it a suit at all?) Great comedy value when trying to hide five people in an apartment meant for one. I suppose you just have to put up with Ruby Rhod.
