The entire war revolves around the protection or control of an alien weapon that requires five elements to wield it. We start off 300 years in the future where a war is brewing between our government, a secret group of monks, and an evil alien race. For me, personally, Besson's style and humor are distracting, in his more grounded Action movies, but in this Sci-Fi setting, I feel like it is the only film in his portfolio where it acts as an asset. Take Luc Besson's The Fifth Element, for example. Growing up on the genre in the 80s and 90s, I always felt a certain level of creative freedom allowed for some great fun from directors and actors that I normally wouldn’t like. Thanks to the success of films like Guardians Of The Galaxy, the Action/Sci-Fi genre seems to be in the middle of a revival.
