Fantastic movie, great action scenes and good dialogue. I think that it was one of Natalie Portman's first movies.

I think its because the director wanted to portay a man who commits horrendous acts yet has the pseudo-innocence of a child.
dude, that movie is awsome.
and its name in japan is Leon, maybe its the same with other countries.
Excellent movie. The best performance I've seen from Reno. Well done action with good pacing. The only thing I think that would have made it better was a different soundtrack, something more along the lines of Beson's more recent The Transporter.
M. Kisarazu, Leon is the most common title for the film (prefered by Besson), and The Cleaner is another title it has been released under. If only the media were in the hands of a few large multi-national corporations these problems of movies being released under multiple titles would cease <sarcasm>.

Amazing movie. Thanks for reminding me to watch it again! I've been stuck on a Toshiro Mifune binge lately.

Great movie, I watched it a couple times when I rented it.
And if you're into video games, the last level in Hitman: Contracts is very similar to the end of Leon.
Young Natalie Portman, Jean Reno, Gary Oldman. Hell, yeah.

it was so sad in the end when he died
Ohhhhh, Leon. Amazing film, heightened by the brillian t performances of Portman, Reno and Oldman.
If you want a psychopathic baddie that the whole audience will love to hate, can't get much better than Gary Oldman.
There is talk of a Leon sequal, with Portman playing a grown-up, kick-ass Mathilda. Could be good, could be very very bad.
greater valia- change the title to the professional/Leon
