the Professional [aka Leon] was an amazing flick! a strange relationship between a hitman [jean reno] and a little orphan [natalie portman] is explored! the local mob is operated out of a deli and italian resturant by like it should be! dirty cops abound! revenge is administered properly. AND it's done by an amazing director, luc beson, who has also done the original La Femme Nikita, Fifth Element and Messenger: Joan of Arc Story. can't go wrong with THIS guy! anyway, the Prof comes on network television from time to time. i admonish all to check it out.
