Does it seriousherly not bother any one that?


Bruce Willis is 20 years older than Milla Jovovich. Did that not come off as just a a bit creepy to anyone but me.

reply

No. Bruce Willis looked pretty good in this, even with his receding hairline and all.

If she was under 18, then it would be creepy. But she was 22. Not creepy. Get over it.

BTW, the original choice to play Korben Dallas was Jean Reno... who is seven years older than Bruce Willis. And guess what- still not creepy. When you're over 18 you get to do whatever you want in these matters, including fuck gross old men if you feel like it.

And I'm only saying 18 here because that's the oldest Age of Consent on the books anywhere. There are still plenty of parts of the world where it's 16 or even lower. Including many US states.

You couldn't tell in the film. His character looks, at his oldest, to be 38, while Milla's character looks 25-ish.

reply

Milla’s character is thousands of years older than Bruce’s. Otherwise, no, I didn’t notice the age difference between the actors, nor did it bother me.

reply

No. They were both of adult age.
