Amazon.com:
Luc 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

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Blu-ray: Oh does this film look great on Blu...and you get both versions of the film as well!
Hot after his film "La Femme Nikita", in 1994 Luc Besson ("The Fifth Element", "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc", writer of "The Transporter" films) would go on to work on his film "Leon" (Leon the Professional). The film was written and directed by Besson and featured music by Eric Serra ("The Fifth Element", "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc", "GoldenEye") and cinematography by Thierry Arbogast ("Babylon AD", "Femme Fatale", "Kiss of the Dragon", "The Messanger: The Story of Joan ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Another disgrace -- thank you, "Hollywood"
The "geniuses" who manage Sony Pictures have yet again demonstrated their utter contempt for American film watchers. This time they excised 23 minutes of vital scenes from the movie while remastering it in Blu-ray format.

Either they think we are all "Bible-thumpers" incapable of handling fictional adult themes or they think we are so stupid that we will purchase first this heavily-censored version and then in six months be happy to purchase a second Blu-ray version containing the actual ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Alpha Team Swatted
Leon the Professional is a very well-made European-style movie with heart-warming and heart-rending moments along with some gruesome, graphic violence. The original director's cut, which is the European version, was edited for American audiences who might find some scenes "unsavory" regarding Mathilda's childish crush on Leon. But overall the film is a rough story of a man who learns to feel again, and a little girl who learns the harsh realities of that chaos they call life. Gary Oldman's performance ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cleaning for a Living
Jean Reno is Leon, a genuine Italian hitman with a sleazy wardrobe, a gun case, and a cheap apartment, who does "cleaning" tasks for the boss. He lives down the hall from teen Mathilda (Natalie Portman) whose family is brutally murdered in their apartment by a corrupt police squad led by psycho chief detective Stansfield (Gary Oldman) after her father fails to return stolen drugs. Leon, having witnessed the crime through a keyhole, then comforts Natalie and allows her to stay with him and the two develop ... Read More
