LEON: The Professional

[eledoremassis02]

A thread for all you Jean Reno or The Professional Fans

 

[Darthphere]

I love this movie. Its where I first fell in love with Natalie Portman. Awesome story, great action and of course Gary Oldman was badass.

 

[eledoremassis02]

Leon made me fans of Jean Reno, Natalie Portman and Gary Oldman. That movie has to be one of the best

 

[Sava]

a truely great film

 

[Steelsheen]

loved this film!

the way the film ended its perfect for a sequel. arent they working on that Mathilda screenplay yet? i think Portman already agreed to do it if the script is good isnt it?

 

[Everyman]

Great movie, one of the few of Besson I like. It has some of his main little obsession (the police as a corrupted force) but not to the point of being irritating like in his next movies.

 

[JackBauer]

hands down one of the, if not the, best action movies ever.

 

[Morg]

Love the movie and thought Natalie Portman was great in it(cute too! ) heard there is a special edition dvd of it with extra scenes and more action in it. Never could find it

 

[블라스]

EDIT: Cause it made Rizpower angry

Ok, it's gone

there's "the professional" and "leon: the professional". the professional was the cut released theatrically in america. leon: the professinoal was the cut that WASNT released theatrically in america and it has more footage....really really cool footage!!! it IS on dvd. i got my copy at best buy...so you shouldnt have a problem finding it. i think there was even a sticker on the front saying it had the extra footage...i think theres also a superbit version of leon: the professional...but i was never into the superbits...you dont get the special features....

AWESOME!!!! Thats pretty cool.

Morg, I have Leon:The Professional and its not hard to find. I say you wait for this one though. And to point out, both versions are close-captioned.

 

[Darthphere]

WHOA WHOA WHOA! You fell in love with Natalie Portman? Wasn't she like 10 at the time? Sick bastard.

I was like 7 at the time.

 

[Dark Carnage]

Love it.

gary oldman was kickass and crazy. i found the little girl being in love with leon somewhat weird but good.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

This is one of the few movies that really deserves a sequel.Sadly,watching it makes me fear that I belong in jail.

 

[Motown Marvel]

yeah, i always thought it would be cool if they did a sequel called MATHILDA....whit mathilda grown up and her life as an assassin...BUT, it would have to be done very carefully and well. get luc besson to return as writer/director...get portman to return to the role, etc....

Don't know if it's true but I actually heard Leon was surpose to have sex with her but N. Portman parents objected to that part so it was written out.

 

[Nero_Ordin]

that is sick!!!!!

 

[eledoremassis02]

I read the original script, no thats just a rumer cause of ther relationship

 

[Nero_Ordin]

good because that is pushing it too far because i thought leon was a good father figure for malitda.

No way!

Cool thread, I was thnking about sequel possibilities. I heard Portman said she's up for it.
