Leon the professional review
My Rating: 8.2/10
IMDb Rating: 8.6/10 Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 72% Metacritics Rating: 64/100 My Favorite Quotes 1. "There is somebody coming, and he is serious." 2. "Take the 100 bucks and shut the fuck up!" - Mathilda 3. Henchmen: "What should I tell them." Stansdield: "Tell them we were just doing business." It really hits parts that most action movies now a days cannot even dream of reaching. Tying in the emotions between Leon and Mathilda made the movie very enjoyable to watch. The chemistry between them is amazing and almost unbearable by any film today. The main bad guy (antogonist) is very well done not just the acting, but the character and how fucked up of a person he is with no ulterior motive to any of his actions. The action sequences are purely badass and not just thrown together explosions and gunfire. They are well though out and made suspenseful in some cases to watch. The films duration is only 1h 49m making it a very suitable length for a action/adventure film. The soundtrack is very good and the ending even better. The only thing this movie was missing was a good overall theme. And the scene when Mathilda was shooting out of the window was kind of stupid in my opinion. None the less it was a very good film |
