English Summary:

The Fifth Element (French: Le Cinquième Élément) is a 1997 English-language French science-fiction action film directed and co-written by Luc Besson. It stars Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman and Milla Jovovich. Primarily set in the 23rd century, the film's central plot involves the survival of planet Earth, which becomes the responsibility of Korben Dallas (Willis), a taxicab driver and former special forces major, after a young woman (Jovovich) falls into his cab. To accomplish this, Dallas joins forces with her to recover four mystical stones essential for the defense of Earth against the impending attack of a malevolent cosmic entity.

Besson started writing the story that became The Fifth Element when he was 16 years old; he was 38 when the film opened in cinemas. Besson wanted to shoot the film in France, but suitable facilities could not be found; filming took place instead in London and Mauritania. Comics artists Jean "Moebius" Giraud and Jean-Claude Mézières, whose books provided inspiration for parts of the film, were hired for production design. Costume design was by Jean-Paul Gaultier.

The Fifth Element received mainly positive reviews, although it tended to polarize critics. It has been called both the best and worst summer blockbuster of all time. The film was a financial success, earning more than $263 million at the box office on a $90 million budget. At the time of its release it was the most expensive European film ever made, and it remained the highest-grossing French film at the international box office until the release of The Intouchables in 2011.

Hungarian Summary:

A történet a XX. század elején kezdődik Egyiptomban, ahol egy régész a gonosz eljövetelét hirdető hieroglifákra bukkan. A szöveg szerint létezik olyan fegyver, amivel elpusztítható. Alkotóelemei: a tűz, a víz, a föld, a levegő és egy ismeretlen ötödik. Háromszáz évvel később Korben Dallas taxisofőr rosszat álmodik. Később néha azt kívája, hogy bár fel se ébredt volna, mert ezen a napon kiderül, hogy itt a gonosz, és ideje megkeresni azt a bizonyos ötödik elemet.
