Why watch this? It's over-the-top, visually-stunning Sci-Fi creativity on full display.

Plot Summary: In the 23rd century, a washed-up cab driver finds himself plunged into a mission to save the world when a mysterious woman, who is the universe's ultimate weapon, crashes into his cab. The two must race against time to collect four elemental stones and assemble the ancient weapon to defeat a cosmic evil that appears every five thousand years. Their quest forces them to contend with mercenaries and a scheming industrialist who want the stones for their own nefarious purposes.

Dad's Preview: This futuristic action flick is loaded with talented actors, mechanical and creature effects, as well as digital effects. However, upon release, this film divided its audiences. Some folks loved its lavish visuals and the strong performances by its top stars. Others felt the film's plot was confusing and over-stuffed with too many flamboyant performances, singling out comedian Chris Tucker as Ruby Rhod. As a Sci-fi lover, I have softened somewhat on this film. It is a spectacle to behold and there are some ground-breaking, really cool special effects. Today's critics agree and it's considered a cult classic. It soundly can be labeled "so bad, it's good."
