Editorial Review:
The Superbit titles utilize a special high bit rate digital encoding process which optimizes video quality while offering a choice of both DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1 audio. These titles have been produced by a team of Sony Pictures Digital Studios video, sound and mastering engineers and comes housed in a special package complete with a 4 page booklet that contains technical information on the Superbit process. By reallocating space on the disc normally used for value-added content, Superbit DVDs can be encoded at double their normal bit rate while maintaining full compatibility with the DVD video format.
Description of The Fifth Element (Superbit Collection):
Ancient curses, all-powerful monsters, shape-changing assassins, scantily-clad stewardesses, laser battles, huge explosions, a perfect woman, a malcontent hero--what more can you ask of a big-budget science fiction movie? Luc Besson's high-octane film incorporates presidents, rock stars, and cab drivers into its peculiar plot, traversing worlds and encountering some pretty wild aliens. Bruce Willis stars as a down-and-out cabbie who must win the love of Leeloo (Milla Jovovich) to save Earth from destruction by Jean-Baptiste Emmanuel Zorg (Gary Oldman) and a dark, unearthly force that makes Darth Vader look like an Ewok. --Geoff Riley
The Fifth Element (Superbit Collection) Reviews:
Classic Sci-Fi 
2009-12-06 - Keeping in mind that this is a movie made in 1997, the special effects are way ahead of it's time. It can called a sci-fi classic, with a 'cool' Bruce and a beautiful Mila racing to save the world. This movie can be placed between Blade Runner and Starship Troopers: you'll love it or you'll hate it.
WOW! 
2009-12-01 - I've been watching The Fifth Element since it first came out on DVD. It's one of my favorite Sci-Fi movies, but it is also an older Sci-Fi movie. When I heard about the Blu-Ray version, I was very skeptical about how good it would look. I finally gave it a try, and I could not believe my eyes. This remastered version is the best Blu-Ray transfer I have seen so far, it was like watching a different movie. If you own Blu-Ray, you MUST get The Fifth Element!
Amazing Blu-Ray Transfer
2009-11-29 - Got the blu-ray about a month ago and forgot to give it a review.. since many of you have seen this movie before, i won't get into those long detailed summaries about the movie. The blu-ray transfer is amazing and you'll catch details you have not seen in standard DVD. Get this for your blu-ray collection.
MISTEP AFTER MISSTEP 
2009-11-05 - SHPPIED WRONG ITEM. WANTED BLU-RAY VERSION. WROTE E-MAIL, YOU SHIPPED SAME VERSION AGAIN. STILL WAITING FOR CREDITS ON BOTH DVD THAT WERE RETURNED.
funny sci-fi
2009-10-30 - This is the funniest, dumbest sci-fi kitsch ever. The actors are superb and the story creative.
