Failure to Franchise

Episode Twenty-Two - The Fifth Element (1997)


Listen Later

When a giant ball of evil that makes phone calls is one of the LEAST wild things in your movie, you know you got a special one. "May-la June-vovich" concludes with a look at Milla's star-making turn in Luc Besson's bonkers sci-fi epic. It doesn't really get any more 90s than this, folks - an engaged, interested Bruce Willis! A super over-the-top Gary Oldman! A constantly screaming Chris Tucker! A healthy mix of CGI and practical effects! And of course, Milla, in her most iconic role ever (sorry, Alice). 

Plus, we randomly draw the next five movies we'll be covering, as we get ready for the "F2F Summer Surprise!"
