Besson nails the visuals too, crafting a playful vision of the future, replete with distinctive weapons and aliens that feel like they've been ripped right out of a comic book. And even though she was distractingly scantily-clad, Jovovich transcends Besson's particular vision and blends innocence, hope, passion and fury into her gorgeous punk role. A wonderful - and unique - blend of sci-fi spectacle, comic-book action-adventure, colourful performances and finely-placed humourĭespite golden era Bruce Willis's iconic John McClane style persona perfectly integrating into the outlandish universe, and Gary Oldman going full Oldman in his over-the-top villainous role, the movie really belongs to Milla Jovovich's child-like, flame-haired kick-ass heroine Leeloo.
