Gary Oldman thinks "The Fifth Element" sucks. Is he right?

In this episode the boys look back at Luc Besson's 1997 genre-bending sci-fi action flick "The Fifth Element," which stars Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, Gary Oldman, Chris Tucker, Ian Holm, and Tiny Lister. It's colorful and it's fun and it's a bit campy here and there... but is it good? Keith, watching it for the first time, is less than convinced. LET'S RUMBLE.
