an evil force by collecting five elements to do so. His journey is prompted by the arrival of a constructed clone named Leeloo, whocannot speak any English, but whom he grows close to as they both try to prevent Earth's imminent demise whilst evading evil forces in the process. The film is credited by many as one of the most iconic Science Fiction films out, with much credit to Chris Tucker's fantastic performance in the film as the flamboyant Ruby Rhod.
