I'd seen the last half hour of the film about three times previously on TV and thus never knew why Leon was a sympathetic figure until seeing the whole thing. <BR/><BR/>I suppose that by having the hero mowing down police officers in defense of a young girl that the film might be saying that all cops are as corrupt as Oldman's character, but that would be nitpicking.<BR/><BR/>I thought that the acting was great all around. Gary Oldman chewed a bit of the scenery, but I don't really mind when a good actor plays it over the top.<BR/><BR/>Anon,<BR/><BR/>Why do you doubt that M.B. has seen the movie? Do you suspect he has a cultural bias against European films?<BR/><BR/>Thanks for commenting,<BR/>DanBlogFreeSpringfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08314548731839300032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12858469.post-14372884605901897662007-06-01T01:17:00.000-05:002007-06-01T01:17:00.000-05:00MB did you really see that movie?--I'm not convinc...MB did you really see that movie?--I'm not convinced!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12858469.post-20888203569485879462007-05-30T05:09:00.000-05:002007-05-30T05:09:00.000-05:00I saw that movie years ago.
