Movie Reviews of Leon - The Professional (Deluxe Edition)
Movie Review: "Hey!.....You know the ring trick?"
Summary: 5 Stars
The rest of the story about Leon and Mathilda....
A FINE movie, excellent direction, incredible action, and some fine acting by all involved.
(Unlike many cinematic "improvements, the extra 24 minutes added to (finally) this edition actually improve an already outstanding film...
I'd like to add, that the reviewers who cry "obscene" over this platonic relationship are clearly mentally ill....
Mathilda, as a precocious pre-pubescent girl, fixated on Leon, yes....However, when Leon (gently) turned down her naive advances, she turned right over and went to sleep, happily...See Leon as an Uncle, or whtever you want...
Hey, Lunatics!
Don't let the fact they were in the same bed scar you too deeply.
Summary of Leon - The Professional (Deluxe Edition)
Gary Oldman Jean Reno Natalie Portman and Danny Aiello star in LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL a go-for-broke thriller about a professional assassin whose work becomes dangerously personal. Calling himself a "cleaner" the mysterious Leon (Reno) is New York's top hitman. When his next-door neighbors are murdered Leon becomes the unwilling guardian of the family's sole survivor - 12-year-old Mathilda but Mathilda doesn't just want protection; she wants revenge. Training her in the deadly tricks of his trade Leon helps her track the psychotic agent (Oldman) who murdered her family.System Requirements:Running Time: 133 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MYSTERY/SUSPENSE Rating: NR UPC: 043396098589 Manufacturer No: 09858Luc Besson (The Fifth Element) made his American directorial debut with this stylized thriller about a French hit man (Jean Reno) who takes in an American girl (Natalie Portman) being pursued by a corrupt killer cop (Gary Oldman). Oldman is a little more unhinged than he should be, but there is something genuinely irresistible about the story line and the relationship between Reno and Portman. Rather than cave in to the cookie-cutter look and feel of American action pictures, Besson brings a bit of his glossy style from French hits La Femme Nikita and Subway to the production, and the results are refreshing even if the bullets and explosions are awfully familiar. --Tom Keogh
