While The Professional marked the American breakthrough of populist French director Luc Besson (and his long-time composer, Eric Serra), the ambitious, futuristic sci-fi adventure The Fifth Element proved to be Besson's stateside sophomore jinx at the box office. Still, Serra's score shouldn't be overlooked. Easily the composer's most digitally daring studio concoction, The Fifth Element offers up a brave stew of synth beats, orchestral flourishes, and ethnic influences ranging from Middle Eastern modalities to Italian operatic arias. --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars Great CD!.......2007-02-13

This CD is for fans of the movie and the songs associated with it. I believe it contains all the songs in the movie.

5 out of 5 stars The Scene.......2006-05-03

I love this soundtrack and the movie too. The scene with Lucia Di Lammermoor is FANTASTIC. Ruby's scenes are also great. See this movie and listen to the soundtrack -- they are impressive.

5 out of 5 stars Somebody stop me... Can't stop listening to this CD.......2005-07-25

If you saw the movie (Fifth Element) you have to buy this CD.

How many times you buy a CD and you like 2 or 3 songs?
The melodies in this CD will blow you away. Eric Serra: you are awesome. I have also the CD from "The Professional" and "La Femme Nikita". Everyone is just great. The variety is refreshing.
Mondoshawan, Five Millenia Later, Heat (*****), are just great. All the others are 4 stars, but the compilation of all the music from the movie in this CD is 5 stars.

This CD is different from anything else I have, and I have a big variety of rithmes. Do yourself a favor: buy this CD.

5 out of 5 stars What Else Can You Ask For?.......2005-03-21

Eric Serra is amazing. This is only the greatest soundtrack to the greatest movie ever made. It comes with a medley with all the soundbites and all the great music. If you're a big fan of The Fifth Element, it's a must have!

2 out of 5 stars Khaled's famous Taxi Chase scene is not included here!?.......2004-12-19

For all of those who suffered the hardships of looking for that song, I finally discovered that it's called "Alech Taadi", Arabic meaning: "Why run away?", which fits the taxi chase scene perfectly. This song belongs to a world-famous Rai artist known as Khaled. It's part of his "N'ssi N'ssi" album (Arabic meaning: Forget! Forget!). I thought that this song (like most of you) would be included in this Serra's album. Khaled's famous 5th Element Taxi Chase Scene is available at Amazaon.com. I rate Khaled's N'ssi N'ssi album at 5, but this Serra's collection at 2.5 for failing to include Khaled's track, Alech Taadi.

Best regards,
