IMDB's rating is no indication of whether or not YOU will like a particular movie. It's just a summary of what other people thought of this movie. I have disliked movies that others have called masterpieces. Nothing to be baffled about. Taste is subjective.

No big deal its what humans are and think. We are all different and have different likes and dislikes. So who cares? Me? Well I like it but I could careless what others think. But why do you types always have to really say crap about stuff you don't like? As NO ONE CARES. Why not just clam up and keep it to yourself? LOL! If I don't like some film? I wouldn't even waste the time to tell it to a bunch of strangers. I have better things to do with my life. In fact I have life I hardly use the web except for work emails etc. Unlike the majority of people online I don't live on the web 24/7. Especially about useless nonsense like this. Was ein verlierer. Sigh

Maybe I'm no movie historian, but I own 400 Blu-ray movies and according to my IMDb profile I've seen over 900 titles. I've seen and enjoy all kinds of movies, classic, foreign, silent films, etc. But I think what makes Leon so good is it's execution. It is just well done at presenting it's characters and then developing them in ways most movies fail at. You learn to hate the DEA agent and you learn that Leon isn't that smart but in the end he has heart. Mathilda I think is performed realistically if anything, she acts like what some teens might act at that age, take it or leave it. The story goes places, it's action packed and entertaining and it all wraps up in the end pretty well with no loose screws. I think it's just a poetic and compelling piece of work IMHO. Of course I'd suggest watching the uncut version, but it's just a great movie all in all. My two cents.
Without mercy, man is like a beast.

Come on everyone, I saw this movie when I was a child, possibly below 10 years old! Like all movies I saw, I treated this one like God. Do you know how it feels to experience each scene without having to be dead to spy on the worst experiences the sexiest human beings went through?
Gary Oldman is a really fun actor in this movie, as I (lol x10) acted out his script, "Banner, bring me everyone." "Everyone?" Banner is confused." "EVERYONE!" as less than 90% of the team failed to help delta fetch the keys, as the initial zombies killed them off. It's funny, because no zombie is a computer in this game, yet I treat certain greedy players like Banner in The Professional in a video game! I was only typing the words, " bring me everyone," but it's pretty sadistic to be the one a group of people witness a man going the distance typing up all kind of beep just to roleplay what is roleplatyed for our brains in a video game!
Take it from me, you being annoyed by Portman's character might be reflexive to your own fears. If the movie was addressing rare-but-supportive accounts of sex with a minor, you're supposed to be discussing the case, not being annoyed by her! If that's YOU, you don't realize you're being just like Leon, the hit man, yet you don't have his skills! WTF! To clarify what I just said, Leon made an attempt to say he did not beep her. So if you are annoyed because you are paranoid, you didn't understand the movie! Even if you are a pervert, at least you have the movie, not the action and a novice at being a mother! As a child, treating adults like Gods was my nature, not EVER BEING MYSELF TODAY thinking they're just learning the beep by ear! Holf beep hell.
