Entertainment Reviews:
The action scenes are explosive and skillful, the story genuinely moving.
Uncut
...Flying high on explosive action and sly wit, THE PROFESSIONAL gets the job done...
Rolling Stone
...It is a well-directed film, because Besson has a natural gift for plunging into drama with a charged-up visual style. And it is well acted...
Chicago Sun-Times
...Existential... -- Rating: A - Recommended

Product Description:
Leon (Jean Reno) is a precise, calculating hit man--a consummate professional, with no family and no friends. However, he has casually befriended Mathilda (Natalie Portman, in an auspicious debut), a 12 year-old neighbor whose entire family, including her adored 4-year-old brother, is wiped out by some crooked DEA agents. The girl pleads with Leon to teach her how to be a "cleaner" and avenge her little brother's death. However, once she learns a few skills, Mathilda saunters into the DEA offices with the sole intention of killing the psychotic agent (Gary Oldman) who actually masterminded the executions. But her intended victim turns the tables on her, and Leon must rescue her. LEON was French director Luc Besson's first film shot in America.
