Introduction
The Fifth Element is a 1998 third-person action-adventure game developed for the Playstation by Kalisto Entertainment (Nightmare Creatures, Fury of the Furries) and published by Activision (Apocalypse, Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style). Following along with the events of the 1997 film, players assume the roles of Korben Dallas and Leeloominaï Lekatariba Lamina-Tchaï Ekbat De Sebat on a mission to gather up four ancient stones and save the world from Absolute Evil.

Note: this game uses solely footage and dialogue from the film for its cutscenes, and we're going to be talking over them. If you haven't seen the film, you'll probably get lost pretty quickly, as the game makes very little effort to fill in the gaps between story beats. Also, it's a genuinely good piece of entertainment and worth a watch on its own.
