Episode 004 - The Fifth Element (1997)

EPISODE 004 - THE FIFTH ELEMENT - IS LIVE!!! In a tremendous display of poor forward planning, episode 4 sees us tackle The Fifth Element, a film which is as impressively inventive as it is devoid of narrative cohesion. Created during the era of gigantic budget non-franchise films, TFE blurs the lines between sci-fi and comedy, and it boasts an incredible cast to boot. Shape shifting aliens, intense space battles and some of the coolest costume designs you’ll ever likely see come together to create a fast paced, thoroughly enjoyable viewing experience… or so you would think. If you haven’t seen this film this decade, I’d urge you to check it out again before you start throwing your hate comments at us this week! Find us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!
