Review of Léon: The Professional (1994) by Roeyl — 12 May 2011
This movie just. has. it.
The story is inspiring and its awkwardness is fantastic, there are no holes there: it's entertaining from beginning to end. The actors are wonderful, Jean Reno did his part very well and 12-year old Natalie Portman is amazing. Gary Oldman was fabulous. I could scream EVEEERYYYYOOONNNE!!!!!!! all day! (but never the way HE does). Even secondary characters were very well played. The end was royal: a mix of action and emotion is masterly delivered with a nice song to close the epilogue.
In conclusion, this movie is definitively a must-see. It's the only great movie that wasn't even nominated for Oscars.
