Lol they wanted $31 for it

An ancient movie that's a bit more than decent
Not every movie can have cars that turn to robots, vampires or warewolves in them champ

A couple of disturbing scenes but overall a great movie if you've never seen it.
The theatrical version was fine, it was the extended version which was disturbing (which I believe this one is). The theatrical version was just simply called The Professional if I'm not mistaken.

EDIT: Not sure which version this after looking into it. Maybe both?
This is what it says on the description at Amazon - Experience both the theatrical and extended versions of this beloved action masterpiece, now presented in full 4K resolution
But do not entirely trust Amazon descriptions.

Borderline reaching, but these are the times we live in.
This is a love fantasy masquerading as an action-drama.

One notable scene cut from the original script showed leon and matilda explicitly having sex in which leon cries because of how 'beautiful' it is. Jean Reno's stated on the record that he made the choice to play Leon as a bit 'simple' to tone down some of the more overt sexual undertones and help the character come across more sympathetic.

The entire story of a 12 year old falling in love with a much older man is mirrored by the director's own life according to the woman he knocked up when she was 16 (he was 33). Apparently they also met when she was 12 and started dating shortly after.

Fun fact she played the blue alien opera singer in the 5th element and during that production he ended up leaving her for Milla Jovovich.

Used to be one of my favorite films but it's now a borderline impossible watch - particularly the uncut international version - with the added context of the director's history and intent to romanticize a disturbingly inappropriate relationship.

The more you know.

Natalie Portman's people say nothing untoward happened on set, so we're left strictly judging a work of fiction.

It might have a few uncomfortable scenes, even without the international cut. But it's ultimately no different than watching Kids, Requiem for a Dream, or Human Centipede.

I mean, imagine not watching another Darren Aronofsky movie just because Jared Leto is a POS.

Yeah, it's hard to watch and Besson is a POS. I'm sure he wants everyone to think that the 15 year old Maiwenn came onto to him and he is just a simple, passive good guy (like Leon), but the reality is he was grooming her from age 12. Then he dumps her at age 20 with child in tow for the next hot thing. She was devastated, by the way.

Here's another fun fact: Maiwenn became a filmmaker herself, and "Her most acclaimed film to date is the 2011 drama Polisse, about a photographer (Maïwenn) assigned to shadow a Child Protection Unit that tracks down pedophiles and rescues sexually exploited children."

All of this grossness aside, the movie has a decent plot line (besides the unnecessary sexualization of a 12 year old) and some good acting performances. It was a good action movie in its day, but ho hum now and some of the scenes were so unrealistic and over-the-top that the action movie part of the movie was ruined in the end, too.

Just because nothing untoward happened on set doesn't mean it's ok to sexualize a 12 year old and portray her wanting to have sex with a 40 or 50 something year old man (and did in the movie). While this sometimes happens in real life with emotionally disturbed young girls, this movie didn't attempt to deal with or resolve this issue in a meaningful way but rather just perpetuated rape culture.

It's not about "uncomfortable scenes," it's what you do with the material. The other movies you reference are apples and oranges.

Can someone explain this to me:
1. We get the bluray disc with the 4k movie
2. We get access to the 4K movie streaming as well? What streaming service provides it?

I have a 4k TV but I don't have 4K bluray player.

Thanks and sorry for the stupid questions. I'm old. Technology has passed me by.
