no not exactly


Leon is not a rip off of the movie, just this came out first so its simalarties(the wiped out by the mob, but the movie itself isnt really similar) are considered original, also Leon is better movie.

oh just call it THE PROFESSIONAL and stop being so artsy...

yes your so called LEON was very very similar... if ya'll gonna blame Tarantino all the time ya might as well blame LEON for having a very very similar story, and no matter which you liked better, there are many things the same...

the whole family dies but one and someone in the life takes care of that one even though he/she doesnt want to and...

and and and and and and...

Gary Oldman was SO horrible in LEON that he almost killed the movie... the rest of the cast was great, esp the little hottie, but Oldman was HORRIFIC... his performance was so hammy i wanted to eat a side of jello and stuffing...

FLYING HIGH AGAIN baby, you CANT KILL ROCK AND ROLL... and DEE is my favorite character on that old show... oh im rambling... NO BONE MOVIES from now on... this is becoming a DIARY OF A MADMAN so i best sign off...

AND THE SHARK CHOKED ON THE LIFE JACKET!

Actually, neither of you is right. It's called Léon.

'Flight of the Innocents' (an Italian film) has a theme that is loosely similar. Not as good as 'Gloria' but still pretty good, at least the first half.
