I was only six or seven years old when I first came into contact with this movie. I think my brothers and sisters got first-hand CDs when it was first released. Only a blue, tall and thin alien image remained in my memory. So much so that for so many years I have always thought that this blue tall and thin alien is the head figure who is going to attack the earth, and she is the so-called fifth element, and it turns out that the true fifth element is love. Although it is also a sci-fi movie, the comedic component of this movie is far higher than the salvation attribute of sci-fi itself. The high family elements make it impossible to incorporate it into the classics.
The film tells the predictions of the Mongolians that there will be a dark planet trying to destroy all life on the earth every five years, and the mission of the Mongolians is to save the earth. Legend has it that a combination of five elements can form a powerful weapon to destroy demons. The first four elements are stones representing air, water, earth, and fire, and the last element is a stone that resembles a human body. The combination is a lethal weapon. The Mengxing people took away the five elements and waited for another catastrophe on the earth 300 years later to come to help.
Those who have watched "Three-Body" are familiar with the rules of survival in the dark universe, and they just need to live carefully without being discovered. The great Mengxing people would risk their lives to help the people on earth all the way, which is totally unreasonable. What is even more strange is that the great warrior with the fifth element needs human love to transform. If the Sailor Moon also has this attribute, I am afraid it can blow up the black cat. All in all, this is actually a film in which people on earth frighten themselves, save themselves, and move themselves. They insist on putting on a sci-fi skin to prove the uniqueness of life on earth.
The most fascinating thing is the blue alien. The beauty of the opera is heartbreaking. The first half is the aria "Lucia di Lammermoor" (the incense candle has been lit) by the Italian opera writer Gaetano Donizetti. The blue planet is like a shining gem in the universe, precious and fragile. Aliens seem to sing and ask questions to human souls. The second half is "The Diva Dance" written by Eric Serra. Dance), with Jovovich's fighting scene is really wonderful. But what puzzles me more is how did the four stones get into her body? How can she take it out if she doesn't die?
For the future imagined three hundred years later, it is obvious that it has a cyberpunk texture. Technology allows people to expand infinitely. However, weapons or technology have a sense of old age. Aliens as mercenaries have a bloated look. Toad face. This kind of background is suitable for the heavy, funny elements that pop out from time to time in "Blade Runner" is actually very horrible.
Although the movie tries to incorporate elements of religious worship, semiotics, occultism, lone heroes, salvation, etc., the plot logic is a major flaw. It's already reached the future where letters are sent instantly and identity can be renewed at any time. Can an alien life be forgotten so easily in the scientific research museum? Even boarding the spaceship to go to another planet, it seems that everyone has forgotten about it? Moreover, the setting of the President to learn about battlefield information through the broadcast is too LOW. The only surviving soldier in the last war quit his job to drive a taxi because his wife cheated, and fell in love with the fifth element for some reason. This is not romantic at all. Who is directing the half-bald man to grab the stone? Besides sitting in the room and shaking his face, can the president send more soldiers to do business? The message to maintain the survival of the entire planet actually depends on an old missionary who doesn't know how to put the rock switch and a little missionary who is often confused. Is this a favor or a stigma on religion? The so-called gods actually need to hug each other to have the power to fight the devil. He himself is a weapon and promotes an anti-war policy. Such a planet is still destroyed.
